The Sumerians in Mesopotamia were aware of and made use of Butimen, asphalt, and petroleum.
There is a billionaire gas station owner/ oil man who recently clarified that petroleum is not fossil anything. The term, fossil fuel, was created to imply scarcity. He stated petroleum is renewable. Self replenishing.
I am thinking magma is connected to oil, and gases.
I'm no geologist, but from a general physics perspective I can try:
Due to the pressures, Carbon at the Earth's core is all diamond. As Earth's core cools, pressure differentials can shift the stone and perhaps move veins of diamond up to the outer core.
Diamond Carbon under the reduced pressure melts to form a liquid which can push upward through the mantle basically in the shape of a lightning bolt, filling any lower-pressure gaps in the relatively goopy mantle.
Pockets of liquid Carbon rise through the dense mantle and create bubbles that rest on the lower edge of Earth's crust. Occasionally a fissure will allow a spurt to fill upwards into the porous crust rock. When it cools, if there's tons of excess Hydrogen around you get hydrocarbons, oil, black gold, Texas tea. If not, you get dolomite, graphite, limestone.
I have no idea. But I can see a way in which it could be true.
Yeah seems like some form of Fischer Tropsch or related chemical reaction. Under high heat and pressure and catalysts would take carbon and water which is thermally hydrolized at such temps and you get hydrocarbon.
I saw a video on YouTube about laminar flow. Do you imagine the hypothetical river of diamond that comes up through the mantle to make oil might be eternally flowing along the same routes?
What if a Boring company could intercept an oil rig's supply of crude in the mantle before it even reached the reservoir in Earth's oceanic crust? Gods among men, those who can summon resources to whichever lands they wish to inhabit.
