The past century has seen the dominance of fossil fuels as the chief source of energy. Among these fuels, crude oil is a key commodity that controls nearly all aspects of the energy business. Crude oil is a mixture of compounds primarily composed of carbon and hydrogen in varying proportions, with the presence of inorganic compounds such as nitrogen, sulfur, and metals such as vanadium and mercury. Crude oil is found in specific rock formations known as reservoirs in the earth's crust. The depth at which these reservoirs occur can vary significantly, from pools that flow up to the surface to almost 15,000-meter underground. The surface is drilled to reach the pre-defined depths of these reservoirs that contain crude oil, often referred as black gold.
