Petroleum is formed from the living organisms when these organisms died they settle at the bottom of the sea for millions of years in the absence of air and under high pressure. These get converted into petroleum.

It was formed by the decomposition of the remains of tiny plants and animals buried under the sea millions of year ago.It is believed that millions of years ago,the tiny plants and animals which lived in sea,died.Their dead bodies sank to the bottom of sea and were soon covered with mud and sand.Due to high pressure,heat,action of bacteria,and in the absence of air,the dead remains of tiny plants and animals were slowly converted into petroleum.The petroleum thus formed got trapped between two layers of impervious rocks,forming oil deposit.
