I don't, but some of what I believe CAN be found on the internet.
So, was Saudi Arabia, a sandbox since the beginning of time as we know it, some sort of mecca for sand eating dinosaurs?
Trillions of dinosaurs could not have existed on earth, Nor could oil have been formed from tiny bugs. How would they have gotten there? A door? Oil isn't found just in sand and shale either, thats just where alot of it ends up. What about oil found under the Canadian shield which hasn't moved in Billions of years? How did dinosaurs and tiny bugs crawl under that? Oh yea, "underground rivers" that somehow magically turned into trapped oil deposits.
There are much better explanations. The fossil fuel theory isn't a logical one, and 300 years later, it still hasn't a shred of evidence to prove it. Ice ages, lack of vegitation and life makes it an impossible theory. Of course, adding trillions of years to theories like that make anything possible.
I think I'll keep my mind open to science which isn't limited to an unprovable theory some dare not step outside of.
Whatever..... I'm sure you know more about it than I do.
The oil rich Persian Gulf area is oil rich due to its being located on top of the ancient Tethys Sea.

Tectonic setting of the world's giant oil fields

The pertinent section from the article:
Arabian Peninsula / Persian Gulf. There are 151 giants in this region, Fig. 4. They are concentrated in a large foreland basin formed during the Late Cenozoic collision of the Arabian Peninsula with Eurasia. Downward flexure of the Arabian Peninsula beneath the Zagros Mountains of Iran / Iraq was caused by the northeastward consumption of the Tethys Ocean at the Zagros suture zone. Additional causes of this flexure were the eventual Cretaceous-recent convergence and collision of the Arabian plate against the Eurasian plate. This protracted convergent event has created the Persian Gulf and Mesopotanian lowlands as a sag in the foreland basin, as well as formation of the Zagros Mountains, with a culmination of fold-thrust deformation in Miocene and Pliocene time.
However, other than minor tilting, large areas of the foreland appear completely undisturbed by Zagros-related convergent deformation, as manifested in the variety of giant-field shapes. For that reason, formation of elongate giants parallel to folds and thrusts in the Zagros Mountain and foreland basin was classified as a continental collision margin, while those giants to the southwest were counted as continental rifts and overlying steer's head sag basins.
The basal stratigraphic section underlying the present-day foreland basin was deposited along a Cambrian-Permian passive-margin setting along the southern Tethys margin. Deeply buried salt, possibly deposited in Cambrian rifts, was activated by small-displacement basement faults during Permian to Jurassic time. These gave rise to salt ridges and diapirs, forcing folds in the overlying sedimentary section, which include some of the largest giant fields, such as Ghawar, Saudi Arabia. These folds are at a high angle to later folds and thrusts related to the Zagros convergence. Source rocks in this basin phase include Cambrian-to-Permian units, with the main reservoir in the Permian.
A second hydrocarbon-formation period occurred from the Triassic through Tertiary, with Middle Jurassic source rocks and Upper Jurassic reservoirs. Migration is primarily upward from underlying source rocks in giant fields that are removed from the Zagros deformation. 7 Structural traps formed in the area adjacent to the Zagros foldbelt and relate to early collisional effects in Eocene and younger time.
