Deposits of petroleum and natural gas are most often found in sedimentary rock formations beneath the Earth's surface.

Oil platforms extract oil by using drilling rigs that bore into the seabed to reach underground reserves.

A major danger when drilling for oil in the ocean is the potential for oil spills, which can cause significant environmental damage.

In the fracking process, high-pressure fluid is injected into rock formations to create fractures, allowing oil and natural gas to flow more freely to the surface.

The two types of mines that can be used to get coal from the ground are:
1. Surface mines
2. Underground mines
