		According to this theory, oil is formed from the preserved remains of prehistoric zooplankton and algae which have been settled to the sea bottom in large quantities under anoxic conditions.
		Oil extraction is costly and sometimes environmentally damaging, although Dr. John Hunt of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution pointed out in a 1981 paper that over 70% of the reserves in the world are associated with visible macroseepages, and many oil fields are found due to natural leaks.
		The oil is landed at Sullom Voe terminal in the Shetlands.

		A widely believed myth is that the oil itself is flammable, however it is actually the gas that evaporates from the oil that is flammable.
		The reactions that produce oil and natural gas are often modeled as first order breakdown reactions, where kerogen breaks down to oil and natural gas by a large set of parallel reactions, and oil eventually breaks down to natural gas by another set of reactions.
		By 1910, significant oil fields had been discovered in Canada (specifically, in the province of Alberta), the Dutch East Indies (1885, in Sumatra), Persia (1901, in Masjed Soleiman), Peru, Venezuela, and Mexico, and were being developed at an industrial level.

		Petroleum (from Greek petr – rock and oleum – oil), crude oil, sometimes colloquially called fl gold, is a thick, dark brown or greenish liquid.
		These reactions are thought to be very temperature sensitive: reactions that produce recognizable oil kick in at about 130 °C, and those that continue the breakdown of oil to natural gas kick in by about 180 °C. The range of 130 - 150 °C is generally considered the "oil window".
		However, oil's unique role as a transportation fuel makes reducing its CO emissions a particularly thorny problem; amelioration strategies such as carbon sequestering are generally geared for large power plants, not individual tailpipes.

		The vast majority of oil will not be traded on an exchange but on a over-the-counter basis, typically with reference to a marker crude oil grade that is typically quoted via pricing agencies such as Argus Media Ltd and Platts.
