Maybe your joking around or not but the simple is that they fracture the earth creating channels for the oil to flow into the pipe which then they use a pump to bring it to the surface. Sometime the oil is under so much pressure that it gushes upward. Like in the movies when they drill a the oil shoots 100 feet into the air. once the high pressure is relieved the oil requires a pump to get to the surface. Again old movies of an oil field "the big rotating arm with the jack moving up and down" Thats the pump that raises the oil to the surface. I guess we could lower someone down the well and use a plastic bottle "plastic fairly oil resistant should last for a couple years" Oh wait that won't work as we have no stinkin hole to lower them down so much for that. MB there are not 10 billion barrels of oil down there. I dare you to prove me wrong all you have to do is drill. Please prove me wrong.
