Petroleum is refined to obtain different products.

Explanation:

  • Petroleum refining is a process which is used to "separate" the crude oil.
  • This separation is done by the method of fractional distillation.
  • Because the 'density of petroleum' is shorter and it is drifting on the surface of another liquid and hence this distillation process is used.
  • The petroleum is available in very small quantities.
  • This refinery is processed in very largescale industries using some storage tank.
  • 'Fractional distillation' is the process which is defined as the segregation of a several compounds by heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the mixture to get vaporised and it is heated at the temperature of  25 °C.
