Petroleum is a mixture of a very large number of different hydrocarbons; the most commonly found molecules are alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkanes (naphthenes), aromatic hydrocarbons, or more complicated chemicals like asphaltenes. ... Alkanes with more than 16 carbon atoms can be refined into fuel oil and lubricating oil.
