With petroleum formation the actual temperature applied to the original organic mass is critical in determining the overall properties of the resulting petroleum. Typically lower temperatures during petroleum formation will result in thicker, darker raw petroleum deposits, the most solid of which being a bitumen substance.

If the heat applied during the formation of petroleum process fluctuates too much then gas will be produced, often separating from the petroleum, sometimes remaining mixed with the raw oil. If temperatures are too high, in the somewhere over 450 degrees Fahrenheit then the original biomass will be destroyed and no gas or petroleum is formed.
