Oil is the lifeblood of our way of life. Without oil over 6000 products will not be on the shelves. Oil is pumped with pump jacks from deep and MTH Trains made a working O-Gauge oil well pump jack.

It is about refining crude oil into over 6,000 products necessary to sustain our standard of living. You will be surprised what is refined and made from crude oil. Smash the like button and let’s start with the refinement of crude oil. I found this fascinating as I really had no idea the history of oil. No one knows who, or what civilization discovered oil. But we do know the Chinese were among the first civilizations to refine oil. Crude oil was distilled by Arab chemists, with clear descriptions given in Arabic. In the 9th century, oil fields were exploited in the area around modern Baku, Azerbaijan. Arab and Persian chemists also distilled crude oil to produce flammable products for military purposes. Through Islamic Spain, distillation became available in Western Europe by the 12th century. During these early periods of refined oil, the primary use was for military weapons. Later on, refined petroleum products were used for heat and other products. The industrial revolution was brought on by steam power. And steam power remained supreme for moving huge objects such as ships, tractors, and locomotives. At first, this steam was produced by burning coal. As oil refining processes became more efficient, the conversion from coal to oil was on. Ours is a carbon-based world. Everything has carbon in it. You, me everything. The carbon/hydrogen chain can be broken down and re-shaped to make another product. I assume that many of you are familiar with the term “Fractional Distillation”. It is the first step in turning crude oil into usable product such as lpg, gasoline, and diesel fuel, plus 6,000 other products. The process depends on boiling in a closed tube. Using water as a simple example. When water is heated, its temperature rises to 212 degrees Fahrenheit and stays there. This temperature is its boiling point and once it is reached, the water won't get any hotter. From this point on the heat is used to change the water into steam. (Turn liquid into vapor.) Once all the water has turned to steam, it can then be heated beyond 212 degrees Fahrenheit. As soon as the steam cools below the boiling point, it turns back into water the vapor condenses back to water. Every liquid has its own boiling point determined by the size and shape of its molecules. The Liquid water plus heat becomes steam. The steam is condensed and becomes a liquid. Fractional distillation of crude oil is the main activity that supports our standard of living. Like everything new technologies are developed, but so far none have the ability to replace oil in our world. Oil well pumps are the machines that feed our refineries. They are just as essential to all of us as the water line suppling your house. About Logan Skeele the host of Toy Talk: Logan Skeele is the founder of Advantage Diecast.
