This resource is made up of dead fish and other creatures that sink to the ocean floor and as sediment builds up the dead animal remains decompose and heat up to form the oil and natural gas. This can take up to thousands of years to form and if humans use too much oil we will have to wait another thousand years to use the oil the ocean provides us with. An example of over drilling oil is the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in 2010. ” A surge of natural gas blasted through a concrete core” that could not “withstand the pressure” of the oil and broke causing the
