Oil deposits are often found in concurrence with [[natural gas]], and [[shale]] formations.

Oil deposits are often found in concurrence with [[natural gas]] in a variety of geological structural or [[stratigraphy|straigraphic]] traps.  

[[Scientist]]s believe that fossil fuels are the remains of huge amounts of plant material that was laid down millions of years ago, and altered in form under high temperatures and pressures. Others theorize that it is synthesized naturally by underground processes, slowly rising towards the surface for our use.

[[Geologists]]s have deduced that fossil fuels are the remains of huge amounts of algal material that was laid down millions of years ago, and altered in form under high temperatures and pressures. Layers of buried plant material tend to produce [[coal]] or lignite.

 

A minority belief is that petroleum is synthesized naturally by unspecified underground processes, slowly rising towards the surface for our use.
