A short history of petroleum fuel

Petroleum fuel has been known throughout historical time. Petroleum fuel was used in mortar, for coating walls and boat hulls, and as a fire weapon in defensive warfare. Native Americans used petroleum fuel in magic and medicine and in making paints. Pioneers bought petroleum fuel from the Native Americans for medicinal use and called it Seneca oil and Genesee oil. In Europe petroleum fuel was scooped from streams or holes in the ground, and in the early 19th cent. small quantities of petroleum fuel made from shale. In 1815 several streets in Prague were lighted with petroleum fuel lamps.

The modern petroleum fuel industry began in 1859, when the American oil pioneer E. L. Drake drilled a producing well on Oil Creek in Pennsylvania at a place that later became Titusville. Many wells were drilled in the region. Kerosene was the chief finished product, and kerosene lamps soon replaced whale oil lamps and candles in general use. Little use other than as lamp fuel was made of petroleum fuel until the development of the gasoline engine and its application to automobiles, trucks, tractors, and airplanes. Today the world is heavily dependent on petroleum fuel for motive power, lubrication, fuel, dyes, drugs, and many synthetics. The widespread use of petroleum fuel has created serious environmental problems. The great quantities that are burned as fuels generate most of the air pollution in industrialized countries, and petroleum fuel spilled from tankers and offshore wells has polluted oceans and coastlines.
