         Introduction 
          
         Crude oil or (petroleum) is becoming increasingly important in the world, day after 
         day and exceed uses and derive strategic importance of crude oil from two facts: 
         1. It  is being a source of energy. 
         2. It is being the basic raw material for the chemical industry and the branches of 
         various petrochemical. Exhorts crude oil good position between the different energy 
         sources for the following reasons: 
         1. Contain many products can be separated from each other by refining and represent 
         a variety of sources in fuel use and production assistant  lubrication oils products and 
         asphalt and petroleum solvents, as some of its derivatives important materials in 
         Petrochemical industries. 
         2. The presence of natural gas with crude oil under the surface of the earth. 
         3. It can be transferred to long distances easily. 
         4. Low cost of production, transportation and refining.
