Extracting Oil

Have you ever wondered about the process and the steps that are involved in extracting oil? In this essay I will try to educate you, about the steps oil goes through before it gets in your car.


First, oil is located using lots of different methods; this step could take time, because the places should also be evaluated before digging starts. Second, the oil is pumped through pipelines to reach one destination. Then, the oil is stored in tanks. After, the oil is refined into many different products like petrol, and plastic. Later, petrol is stored in tanks to be transported. After, the oil has been transported, it is sent to different petrol stations via pipelines. Petrol is then stored in underground tanks, that endure heat and protects it till it’s ready to be pumped in cars.


Last step, is to fill your car up, and leave for a nice holiday with your family. Remember to take enough money because oil is expensive, but now having a wife cost’s you much more so its better if you will not take her on this family vacation.
