Course description
Introduction to the Oil Industry is an online training course where you will learn all about oil – what it is, where it is found, and how it is extracted. You will also learn how raw crude oil is turned into the petroleum products we are familiar with (like gasoline), before it is distributed to end users. We will even take a look at how the industry is organized. By the end of the course, you will have a good general understanding of oil, from the underground crude reservoirs to the gasoline pump.
