Petroleum geologists are earth scientists generally employed by oil and gas companies, and their job is to determine where and where to search for natural resources. In some areas of petroleum geology, the focus is on the discovery and production of petroleum. They typically capture oil by taking ideas of underground areas, creating three-dimensional images measured over time, and mapping stratigraphic and stratigraphic data representing the potential of the oil field. Guess where to drill.
