This website should probably help answer some of these questions. Google "Texas oil industry," or something similar to find more.

e. Aside from the obvious, which is the production of oil and gas for internal combustion engines, petroleum products are used in making plastics; personal lubricants, like petroleum jelly; fertilizers, etc. To find more, just google "petroleum products." That should bring up tons of websites.
