(ProductFn Petroleum-CrudeOil) crude petroleum product Petroleum-HeavyCrudeOil heavy crude oil The glossary in the EIA's 'International Energy Annual 1996' has the entries: Lease Condensate: A liquid recovered from natural gas at the well or at small gas/oil separators in the field. Consists primarily of pentanes and heavier hydrocarbons. Also called field condensate. Does not include plant condensate. Crude Oil (including Lease Condensate): A mixture of hydrocarbons that exists in liquid phase in underground reservoirs and remains liquid at atmospheric pressure after passing through surface separating facilities. Included are lease condensate and liquid hydrocarbons produced from tar sands, Gilsonite, and oil shale. Drip gases are also included, but topped crude oil (residual) and other unfinished oils are excluded. Liquids produced at natural gas processing plants and mixed with crude oil are likewise excluded where identifiable.

However, many substances that chemically break down before melting (e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjc_ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FattyTissue</a>) _are_ included in this collection, even though they exist solely in one physical state.

Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString petroleum A subset of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjZ6ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Oil</a> and a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViGSpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TangibleStuffCompositionType</a>, petroleum is the crude oil that is usually pumped from the ground and used to make gasoline, petrochemicals, plastics, etc. See also <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwQr1JJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PetroleumProduct</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvlvNSpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PetroleumProduct_Refined</a>. Petroleum-CrudeOil CommodityProduct Commodities are those products for which the only relevant data are the quantity and the price (and possibly the location). That is, their quality is completely specified or describable in standardized terminology. Thus, fashion clothing is not a commodity, since opinions on it vary, whereas grade A extra large eggs are. The collection of all eggs is covered by various collections that are commodities, but is not itself an instance of commodity. commodity oil Oil An instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViGSpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TangibleStuffCompositionType</a>, and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjD0JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganicMaterial</a>.
