Oil and gas deposits
Answer by Ibrahim El-OseryConfidence votes 33.1KYes, fossils are the traces and remains of organisms and plants that were buried and maintained under pressure
Petroleum forms from the remains of ancient marine organisms that were buried beneath layers of sediment. Over millions of years, heat and pressure from the Earth's crust transform these organic materials into hydrocarbons, which eventually accumulate in underground reservoirs as crude oil.
The liquid from the remains of marine organisms is known as oil. When marine organisms die, their remains settle on the ocean floor and gradually undergo a process that turns them into oil under high pressure and temperature. Oil is a fossil fuel that is extracted from the Earth's crust and refined for various purposes, such as fuel and lubrication.
The first requirement for the remains of a living organism to transform into a fossil fuel is that they must be buried deep underground where there is high pressure and temperature. This burial process prevents the organic material from decomposing and instead allows it to chemically transform into fossil fuels like oil, coal, or natural gas over millions of years.
Fossil fuels are the remains of decomposition of buried dead organisms under pressure. The common fossil fuels are oil , gas and coal.
Fossil fuels are formed from the remains of organisms that lived millions of years ago, such as plants and animals. These remains are buried under layers of sediment and heat and pressure transform them into coal, oil, and natural gas. Fossil fuels are obtained through the process of drilling or mining to access underground reservoirs or deposits.
Oil and natural gas form from the remains of tiny marine organisms that accumulate on the ocean floor over millions of years. As these remains are buried under layers of sediment, heat and pressure transform them into oil and natural gas. The process is known as maturation and occurs in specific geological conditions found beneath the Earth's surface.

No, it is formed when forests die and are covered with layers of rock which compress it and over time turns it into coal. Buried remains of marine organisms formed oil, following mass extinctions,where the oceans have stagnated.
Crude oil is typically millions of years old, formed from the remains of ancient marine organisms. Factors contributing to its age include the time it takes for organic matter to be buried and undergo heat and pressure to transform into oil, as well as the geological processes that have occurred over time.
