2. Pumpjack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpjack

   Pump size is also determined by the depth and weight of the oil to remove, with deeper extraction requiring more power to move the increased weight of the discharge column (discharge head). A beam-type pumpjack converts the rotary motion of the motor (usually an electric motor ) to the vertical reciprocating motion necessary to drive the ...

3. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

   The rate at which the gas is liberated from a given oil is a function of change in pressure and temperature. The volume of gas that an oil and gas separator will remove from crude oil is dependent on (1) physical and chemical characteristics of the crude, (2) operating pressure, (3) operating temperature, (4) rate of throughput, (5) size and ...

4. Dry sump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_sump

   The oil collects in sump (1), is withdrawn continuously by scavenge pump (2) and travels to the oil tank (3), where gases entrained in the oil separate and the oil cools. Gases (6) are returned to the engine sump. Pressure pump (4) forces the de-gassed and cooled oil (5) back to the engine's lubrication points (7).

5. Extraction of petroleum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraction_of_petroleum

   When oil and gas are burned they release carbon dioxide into the air. Fossil fuels, such as oil, are responsible for 89% of the CO2 emissions. [10] Carbon emissions cause climate change which negatively impacts people's safety by raising sea levels and worsening weather. Oil can also cause oil spills, which pollutes the ocean. [10]

6. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   An oil pump, a vane or gear pump powered by the engine, pumps the oil throughout the engine, including the oil filter. Oil filters can be a full flow or bypass type. In the crankcase of a vehicle engine, motor oil lubricates rotating or sliding surfaces between the crankshaft journal bearings (main bearings and big-end bearings) and rods ...

7. Oil pump (internal combustion engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pump_(internal...

   The oil pump forces the motor oil through the passages in the engine to properly distribute oil to different engine components. In a common oiling system, oil is drawn out of the oil sump (oil pan, in US English) through a wire mesh strainer that removes some of the larger pieces of debris from the oil.
