Â­ Crude oil is the term for unprocessed oil, the stuff that comes out of the ground. It is also known as petroleum. Crude oil is a fossil fuel, meaning that it was made naturalÂ­ly from decaying plants and animals living in ancient seas millions of years ago -- most places you can find crude oil were once sea beds. Crude oils vary in color, from clear to tar-black, and in viscosity, from water to almost solid.
Crude oil typically travels in cars called DOT-111s. Each car carries roughly 30,000 gallons of crude oil. When that crude oil is processed, a little under half - 13,433 gallons - of it will become gasoline you can put in your car. With that much gasoline, you could drive a Ford F-150 - Americaâs best selling vehicle for decades - 241,794 miles. That's back and forth between Los Angeles and New York 89 times.
