The oil must be in the planet for some reason.

Oil is the product of Nitrogen cycle. Natural atmospheric Nitrogen is consumed by natural bacteria in the Earth's soil. These bacteria convert the nitrogen into nitrogen that is required for plants to live, and to fossil fuels. When fossil fuels are burned, more nitrogen is released into the atmosphere, and the cycle continues.

The problem arises when too much fossil fuels are burned - the atmosphere becomes saturated. The whole in the Ozone is a result of burning too much fossil fuels - in conjuction with other pollution.

There is no consequence...and payamazadi's answer is one of the dumbest things I have ever read. Frankly, I have no idea where you get the ridiculous notion that oil must be there for some reason relating to the stability of the planet. To even phrase the question in that manner shows complete and total ignorance of Earth sciences. It would take far too much effort to explain your misunderstandings (and payamazadi's too). I'd suggest taking a class in geology or start reading some books on the subject.

Sorry, I'm calling this one as I see it.

None. All the oil we have came from the crust. Below the crust is the mantle. Below the mantle is the core. We have not come anywhere near touching the core. In fact, the core is believed to have no oil in it.
