All oilfields are formed from sedimentary basins.
All sedimentary basins are form by sediments that flowed from higher elevations.

How deep has oil been discovered? I had the impression oil has been discovered several miles down. Are we to think that 2 or 3 miles of rock sediments have been deposited atop the oil sediments? Even on a geologic timescale, that beggers belief.
Do you think oil creation could also be abiotic? The gaseous planets contain methane, so I wonder if oil might be found there as well?
