CRUDE OIL

Crude oil is a naturally occurring, unrefined petroleum product composed of hydrocarbon deposits and other organic materials. It's typically found in underground reservoirs and consists of a mixture of different hydrocarbons, including alkanes, cycloalkanes, and aromatic hydrocarbons. Crude oil is extracted from the ground through drilling wells and then refined into various petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and lubricants. It serves as a vital source of energy for various industries and is a crucial commodity in global trade and economics.
