Nowadays cars became a necessary thing that people need. The cars work by petrol so there is stations to fuel your car. But are you ask how the oil becomes petrol in your car? In this essay I will describe the stages from the discovery of oil to the sale of petrol in filling station.

First of all, the oil is located under the ground in the desert and under the sea. Second, the oil is pumped through long pipelines to refineries. Next it is stored in huge storage tanks. Then, it is refined into different products, including petrol. The it is stored in special tanks before it is transported to petrol stations. After that the petrol is stored in underground tanks. Finally, petrol is pumped into car tanks.
