The video shows how crude oil is mined and how petrol, gas, jet fuel, etc., are 'refined' from it. The scenes take place in Texas, USA.

@@PySnek it’s more for limiting ignition sources inside the process units and utilizing a lighter and more controllable vehicle in those critical areas. The plants are so big that bicycles are an absolute necessity when it comes to reducing worker fatigue and saving time. Bumping into piping doesn’t really ever happen unless the operator really breaks the rules and deviates off the designated pathway. Most of the process units have pathways large enough for two pickups to drive though side by side, but you will never see them in there unless during a shutdown and only to deliver material. And even then that scenario is unlikely. So bicycles are absolutely a safer method of transportation inside these facilities even though there are potential hazards to their use like anything else. The incident frequency of just walking inside these facilities would likely be surprising to you.

Good point. Petrol and diesel are a combination of various products produced by the refining process. These are stored in the Tank Farm until blended by a "blender" to the required specifications. This is where the Lab comes in by testing and adjusting the blends to meet the requirements. Petrol is a mixture of motor spirits and gases "Butane" and diesel is a mixture of gas oils and kerosenes. Additives are added to improve flow, energy produced and local emission laws.

Years ago, I worked for a subsidiary of Phillips Petroleum in Bartlesville, OK. One day, with time on my hands, I went to PP's corporate office downtown. On the massive first floor, they had a veritable museum of all sorts of petroleum harvesting equipment on display. To me, the most impressive part of the display was the HUNDREDS of examples of finished products derived from crude oil. Interestingly, while 'fuels' were the biggest part of it, I learned many THOUSANDS of items are made from petroleum by-products. So, if all you Lefties want to get rid of 'fossil fuel' harvesting, you better get ready to ALSO say goodbye to products such as perfume, hair dye, cosmetics, hand lotion, VASELINE, toothpaste, deodorant, panty hose, eyeglasses, contact lenses, and EVERYTHING made of plastic.

Listen man I believe its not that simple because i dont want a nuclear car. I looked at investing into uranium mines but listen bro I already dont have the best lungs or eyes and last thing i need is to be breathing in uranium dust pointing a counter at an unknown smufhe in the wall and my eyeballs take in a huge blast of radiation from some unknown material. Its hard to find people willing to dig up uranium because of the dust. Its worth getting some fpr specific purposes. For example, you wamt a few reators strategically placed and closely monitored. Some nuclear bombs that work real good just incase. Some other applications. But i dont think "the next step" is uranium. The next step is D) all of the above. Uranium has uses but you cant just tell me uranium is the next step when the plastic bag i put my giant sliced up sandwhich into cant be made from uranium. Uranium is an element. Petroleum cant replace uranium and uranium isnt replacing it either. You crazy with this "next step" im in new mexico and this place digs uranium, mines coal, and pumps crude all at the same time and its a dry wasteland of sadness with chapped lips and ghost towns becsuse theyres nothin man its sand is all you got. You cant pan for gold in sand bro. Well you can but its going to be a lot of sand. We are lucky they found any coal at all here 😂 where the hell did all the sane come from? What else do we do?

Assuming that the price of gas (petrol) fluctuates evenly with the price of crude oil, the price of gas pays for 87% of the cost of the crude. This doesn't include the labor and refining costs, but considering how many other products come from crude oil (diesel, kerosene, jet fuel, plastics, asphalt, lubricating oils, etc), it's safe to assume that the operating costs are covered dozens of times over. Judging by the huge profits generated, this proves that the consortium of oil producers conspire to keep the prices inflated.

When people were having their crude oil from their shares delivered to their homes during the 1st lockdown, a large number were clueless as to what to do, like a lot of people who buy shares, etc, nowadays. However, they can siphon it off by pouring oil into a reservoir on heat, have an umbrella over that to catch the evaporating liquid, and all that sitting over a basin to collect the dripping liquid from the umbrella. Once the oil is 40C or 50C, lubricants for bike maintenance will evaporate solely from the rest of the oil. Store the lubricant if you want it. Then slowly raise the temp until the next product separates from the oil. I think gasoline and diesel separates at around 250C each. Things like petroleum jelly, and food/medicines separates at temps in between. You’re gonna need something more sophisticated to reach the higher temps. You can then sell your stores, and always make a profit at any price if you do all the work in between, or sell your barrel of crude for half the price, at best.

@@SunriseLAW From what I can find online "Adding ethanol to gasoline in lower percentages, such as 10 percent ethanol and 90 percent gasoline (E10), reduces carbon monoxide emissions from the gasoline and improves fuel octane". More the octane, less the knock, which is an unintended early combustion of gas and air mixture. That said, yes, I 100% agree with you; such programs are often the result of successful lobbying to make the corps wealthy. They almost always never consider alternatives in such cases.
