At every turn, we come across something made of oil, although sometimes we do not suspect it. Employees of oil and gas companies put a lot of effort into making fuel, car tires, plastics, lipstick, asphalt and much more from oil. It is important for almost any worker in the oil and gas field, whether a driller or an analyst, to know the basics of oil production. The purpose of the course is to give non-specialists in the field of petrochemistry a general idea of what oil is, how it is produced, and what a difficult path oil goes from the well to the end user. But specialists will also be able to find something new and interesting in the course, as well as look at information they have long known from a new angle. The rate in the course is made on clarity and visual ease: all information is presented in the form of infographics or illustrations and short explanations for them. The pages of the course are not overloaded with text, the material is presented in an easy-to-understand language. Animation is used in the story about complex processes. It helps to understand what happens to oil in the process of its extraction.
