adhesion between particles in oil is very high(hence its viscosity)So a lot more energy is needed to make it evaporate,than water.But with enough energy it does evaporate,it will do so slowly, but it will.

Answer:
Oil is made of big organic molecules, containing long carbon chains*. Unlike anorganic substances with small molecules (like water), heating oil does not lead to a point where the molecules stop attracting each other (that would be the boiling point). ... As oil breaks up before it boils, there is no oil evaporation.
