Thaumaturgic petroleum, also called thaumaturgic oil, kraken oil, or simply mage oil, is a naturally occurring yellowish-black liquid mixture of mainly hydrocarbons and it is found geological formations. It is an enchanted type of petroleum, having magic augmentation in its molecular structure. Superficially, it glows in a fluorescent light when it has absorbed light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation, while it can provide augments to the production of gasoline and other petroleum-based products when refined. The unique molecular form that provides the petroleum its magical properties is the synthetic heavy metal, lurynium. According to modern observations, thaumaturgic oil is a biogenic product of ancient krakens, hence the nomer kraken oil. It was first thought to have been from an abiogenic origin, but evidence of the ancient krakens was confirmed once paleontological surveys were cross-examined with the unique petroleum. Thaumaturgic oil can be found with already extant petroleum, but it is considerably rare, being present in roughly 9% of all available oil reserves.
Thaumaturgic oil is primarily extracted by oil drilling. Drilling is carried out after geological studies have suitably located deposits. Developments in the 1530s led to the exploitation of unconventional reserves such as oil sands and oil shale, simultaneously allowing more exploitation of crude oil and thaumaturgic oil.
History
While petroleum has been used since antiquity, and stories of magic oil hail from history, thaumaturgic oil was formally discovered in the Formsheer Mountains of Prestore in 1492 in the Trolley Man's End mine, and the discovery prompted immediate research, which had inspired Sebástian Clifford, the iron mining tycoon, to investigate other deposits of thaumaturgic oil throughout Prestore and abroad. This event led to Clifford cooperating with merchanting tycoon, Louis de Mapleville, to found the Corporation of Merchants of Cambrigh trading into the Magna on Commission with Governor Louis de Mapleville in 1499, to seek the exploitation and extraction for thaumaturgic oil while de Mapleville would provide his enterprise for transport. Clifford published the pamphlet Findings Procured By Trolley Man's End Survey for Mage Oil in 1501 after further exploitation of Trolley Man's End. This text brought thaumaturgic oil to the public limelight in Prestore, igniting a boom in the unique petroleum's analysis and extraction.

Crown Liquid Mana
Due to the Crown not possessing any known Kraken Oil deposits, the Crown resorts to creating their own. Dubbed 'Liquid Mana', 'GPU General Purpose Fuel 1' and 'Magical Fuel' in the Crown, it is a solution of hydrocarbons and mana, forced into a liquid state by extreme condensation. The source of the mana however is unclear. It is usually composed of 75% Mana and 25% Ethene
