Yes you have been lied to this entire time everywhere.
Petroleum is a renewable product, continously made by earth's high pressure on carbon. It is always associated to deep geological faults that transverse the crust. It has been found in crystalline basements (so not just sedimentary basins) such as in the biggest petroleum site in Vietnam, in volcanic rocks in Japan and many more. It has been observed there is a constant renewing in petroleum reservoirs that should have been depleted in the 70s.
Petroleum doesn't have 500 million year, the long chains of carbon would decompose underground and would present nowhere near the energy value they do today, it has at most a few thousand years and some are very new (a few decades) in known reserves. There's too much hydrogen (as well as sulfur and others) in petroleum for it to be a product of animals and plants, there should be a much higher concentration of unsaturated hydrocarbons instead.
The "scientist" who invented the biological theory (Mikhailo V. Lomonosov, 1757) didn't have any empirical evidence for it, it is basically a pseudoscientific theory that lacks even observations, the guy basically invented the whole thing. Synthetic petroleum has been made from plants and it does not look like extracted petroleumm
Fossils have never been found in petroleum, in 1919 "scientists" categorically affirmed peak oil, but production only increased since then, to the point in those 100 years more oil has been extracted than it would be possible taking in account all the organic material on earth's surface. Large oil reserves have origins in regions of contact or shifting of plates where there are numerous fault zones that reach deep parts of earth bellow the crust. Oil companies, all of them, always drill near fault zones. Hidrocarbons like methane, ethane and propane have been formed by simple inorganic reactions in lab settings that reproduced the conditions of the deep parts of earth.
