Petroleum gas is the least common byproduct that can be acquired from refining crude oil. It can be used in many things and can also be acquired from many ways other than refining oil, being also burnable as it is a fuel gas.

For more information on how to process oil, see: Guide: Petroleum Processing

Production

Oil refinery, per 1,000 mB of hot crude oil:
- 500 mB of heavy oil, 250 mB of if naphtha, 150 mB of light oil, 100 mB of petroleum gas, and sulfur as a byproduct.
Catalytic cracking tower:
- 100 mB of diesel produces 40 mB kerosene and 30 mB of petroleum gas.
- 100 mB of kerosene produces 60 mB of petroleum gas.
- 100 mB of industrial oil produces 60 mB of naphtha and 40 mB of petroleum gas.
- 100 mB of natural gas produces 30 mB petroleum gas and 20 mB of unsaturated hydrocarbons.
- 100 mB of cracked diesel produces 40 mB of kerosene and 30 mB of petroleum gas.
- 100 mB of crude oil produces 80 mB of cracked oil and 30 mB of petroleum gas.
- 100 mB BTX produces 80 mB aromatic hydrocarbons and 20 mB of petroleum gas.
Catalytic reformer:
- 1,000 mB of naphtha produces 500 mB reformate, 150 mB of petroleum gas, and 100 mB of liquid hydrogen.
- 1,000 mB of sour gas produces 750 mB sulfuric acid, 100 mB of petroleum gas, and 150 mB of liquid hydrogen.
Hydrotreater:
- 50mB liquid hydrogen (at 1 PU) + 1,000 mB natural gas > 800 mB petroleum gas and 150 mB of sour gas.
Fractioning tower:
- 100 mB of cracked light oil produces 70 mB kerosene and 30 mB of petroleum gas.

Trivia

It is a form of natural gas that is found on deposits of petroleum, either dissolved in the oil or as a free "gas cap" above the oil in the reservoir.
Petroleum gas is primarily a mixture of hydrocarbon molecules that are classified as "alkanes".
