Oil is a not renewable energy, that means that oil, is an energy sorce founded in non-natural companies in limited quantities, in which, once consumed in its entirety, it cannot be easily replaced, since there is no economically viable production or extraction system.

And it's a traditional energy, this means that oil is an energy widely used and cover most of the needs of a country like gas or coal.

THE ADVANTATGES AND THE PROBLEMS OF OIL:

The advantages:

-Oil has High Energy Density: 

You can use a small amount of natural gas to generate an enormous amount of energy that is necessary for running of machines.

-Oil is Easily Available:

Oil is readily available in almost all parts of the world. 

-Oil is Used in a Variety of Industries:

Oil is used in almost all industries. You cannot easily find any other product that has massive use in virtually any kind of industry than oil energy.

The Problems:

- The Emission of Greenhouse Gasses:

This has been the biggest threat to using oil energy. After combustion, oil releases gases such as carbon dioxide and other greenhouse emissions.

- Water Pollution:

You probably have heard about the BP oil spill that massively destroyed aquatic animals.This leads to spills, and they are destructive to aquatic life.

- Oil Refining Produces Highly Toxic Substances:

Oil is primarily a mixture of various hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons have to be refined first. During this process, various toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and solids such as plastic are emitted.
