Oilfield to Station....


All of us have cars and to make them move we should fill it with petrol. However, some people do not know where this petrol comes from and the process of oil to petrol.



First of all, the oil is located under the ground in the desert and under the sea. So to get the oil from under the ground it is pumped thought the pipeline. After that, the oil is stored in a huge storage tanks at a refinery. Then, the oil is refined into different products like petrol, heavy gas oil, light gas oil, gasoline, diesel and kerosene. Additionally, the petrol is stored in huge tanks. Next, it is transported to petrol stations in huge trucks. Moreover, it is stored in big underground tanks. Finally, the petrol is pumped into car tanks when we buy it.



In conclusion, this is a very interesting subject. So I hope from everyone to get benefit about how petrol is refined from oil and gets into our cars.
