Answer:

Petroleum, often known as oil, is a fossil fuel. It is called a fossil fuel because it was formed from the remains of tiny sea plants and animals that died hundreds of millions of years ago, before dinosaurs lived. ... Even under these conditions, only about two percent of the organic material is transformed into oil.

Answer:

A fossil fuel, petroleum is formed when large quantities of dead organisms, mostly zooplankton and algae, are buried underneath sedimentary rock and subjected to both intense heat and pressure.

Petroleum has mostly been recovered by oil drilling (natural petroleum springs are rare).
