Start A Crude Oil Mining Business

Crude oil is a naturally occurring petroleum product composed of hydrocarbon deposits and other organic materials. The largest share of crude oil is used for energy carriers that can be combined into gasoline, jet, fuel, diesel, and heating oils.

The global demand for crude oil is estimated at slightly below 100 million barrels per day.

With the high demand, starting a crude oil mining company could be a profitable business. To start, you will need crude oil mining equipment and a license from the regulatory arm of the government. Ensure you insure your mining equipment and staff, and meet the legal/licensure requirements.
