Power from Crude Oil History Crude Oil is a fossil fuel that has formed over time from prehistoric plant and animal organisms. When alive, these plants and animals used and stored energy from the sun as carbon molecules. When they died, they settled at the bottom of oceans and lakes and were covered by sediment. Over time, more
