It is the unit of measurement commonly used to measure oil production and oil reserves within the US www.nicorinc.com/en_us/news_and_media/glossary/default.htm * The mark of a well-humidified cigar. Even well-aged cigars secrete oil at 70 to 72 percent relative humidity, the level at which they should be stored. www.smokersuite.com/GLOSSARY.html * A liquid substance blessed by a bishop or priest for use in the Ministration to the Sick (BCP, 455). See also Chrism. www.stannesdamascus.org/o.htm * This is a Broad Term for ANIMAL OIL, MINERAL OIL (ie. oil of geological origin) and VEGETAL OIL. It is also used as a term for unspecified oil. www.mda.org.uk/bmmat/matheso.htm * A luminous paint that implies the use of a drying oil, such as linseed oil, with pigments. Drying oils form solid films upon exposure to the air. www.statemuseum.arizona.edu/preserv/paint_terms.shtml * a mixture of hydrocarbons formed by the deposition of dead plant, animal, and marine microorganism matter in or near marine sedentary basins. matse1.mse.uiuc.edu/~tw/energy/glos.html * A sedimentary or tectonic structure that impedes the upward movement of oil and gas and allows it to collect beneath the barrier. www.amateurgeologist.com/content/glossary/glossary_t.html * a simple or complex liquid mixture of hydrocarbons that can be refined to yield gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, and various other products. www.fi.edu/fellows/fellow2/jan99/new/oilvocab.html * Oil (sometimes called petroleum) is formed from the decayed remains of animals and plants. Under the influence of heat and pressure, the decayed matter breaks down first into liquids and into gases. Both the liquid (petroleum) and gas phases (natural gas) collect in pools under the earth?s surface. After a drilling and pumping process to extract it, oil is refined and turned into a variety of petroleum-based products. www.climatechangenorth.ca/H1_Glossary.html * oil of any kind or in any form, except as excluded by paragraph (2) of this definition. Oil includes: Petroleum, fuel oil, sludge, oil refuse, and oil mixed with wastes other than dredged spoil; Hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead in liquid form; Gas condensate that has been separated from gas before pipeline injection. Oil or gas condensate produced from wells or platforms with a surface location in, on, or under Federal, State, or Territorial coastal waters of the United States as described in 30 CFR 253; stored in, on, or under these waters; or transported through pipelines in or under www.gomr.mms.gov/homepg/lsesale/definitions.html * Oil, a liquid fossil fuel, is formed from layers of buried plants and animals that have been subjected to geologic heat and pressure over a long period of time. In addition to carbon, oil contains elements such as nitrogen, sulfur, mercury, lead, and arsenic. Oil is a nonrenewable resource because it cannot be replenished on a human time frame. envirocitizen.inknoise.com/cleanenergy/2005/02/14/0001 * (oil) (oil) [L. oleum] 1. an unctuous, combustible substance which is liquid, or easily liquefiable, on warming, and is soluble in ether but insoluble in water. Such substances, depending on their origin, are classified as animal, mineral, or vegetable oils. Depending on their behavior on heating, they are classified as volatile or fixed. 2. a fat that is liquid at room temperature. www.merckmedicus.com/pp/us/hcp/thcp_dorlands_content.jsp * The essential lubricant for every engine. Oil is rated by viscosity, or thickness, which is specified by the engine's manufacturer. www.autoworldweekly.com/glossary/o.cfm * Crude petroleum oil and other hydrocarbons regardless of gravity which are produced at the wellhead in liquid form and the liquid hydrocarbons known as distillate or condensate recovered or extracted from gas www.mme.state.va.us/Dmr/DOCS/MinRes/OIL/glos.html * One of three kinds of substances: (1) mineral oils, such as crude oil from petroleum, which are mixtures of hydrocarbons; (2) animal and vegetable oils, such as corn oil, which are mixtures of triglycerides; and (3) essential oils or perfumes from plants. xenon.che.ilstu.edu/genchemhelphomepage/glossary/o.html * A liquid triacylglycerol at room temperature. www.agsci.ubc.ca/fnh/courses/glossary.htm * A paint in which a drying oil is the vehicle.

Gasoline and some plastics are made from oil. www.belco.bm/bhl_pages/edugloss.html * (eg 10W-30) Engine oil comes in various ratings SAE 5W-30, 10W-30, 10W-40, etc. For example, a 10W-30 rated oil will flow like a light SAE 10-weight oil at low temperatures. The W signifies that it is a winter rated oil. The 30 designation means that at engine operating temperatures, the oil will behave like a heavier SAE 30-weight oil. Low viscosity at colder temperature allows the oil to circulate more quickly and protect vital engine parts. Higher oil viscosity at elevated temperatures prevents direct metal-to-metal contact. www.parttrackers.com/auto_glossary/o/ * A substance that lubricates and cools the moving parts of the engine and reduces the formation of rust and corrosion. Oil comes in varying weights suitable for efficient operation in cold and hot weather and for engines in varying states of wear. www.mechanicnet.com/apps/partners/gmcl/references/glossary * As defined in the Canada Shipping Act, Part XVI, means oil of any kind and in any form and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, includes petroleum, fuel oil, sludge, oil refuse and oil mixed with wastes but does not include dredged spoil. www.ccg-gcc.gc.ca/rser-ssie/er-ie/plan/terminology_e.htm
