14 Oil
An oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico pulls oil up from beneath the sea floor.
Where Oil Formed As all these processes happened, the slowly forming oil eventually collected inside the porous rocks in huge underground formations known as oil traps. (Oil is not found in enormous underground pools or lakes, as some people think; it is always in porous rocks.)
