Teddy, yes you're probably correct ..... after some web surfing, I came across this explanation. Whatever happened, it all started with solar energy being transformed into chemical energy in the tissues of living organisms .... and so on and so on ...... here ya go (and there are probably other theories as well .....
The Formation of Oil Sands - Although the origin of the oil sands remains disputed, most petroleum geologists believe that this resource was formed in much the same way as were the other fossil fuels—conventional oil, natural gas and coal. Ancient organic matter died and was covered by layers of sediment that exerted sufficient pressure and temperatures to transform the matter into petroleum. The oil of the oil sands was formed from the marine organisms that fell to the bottom of the vast sea that once covered ancient Alberta. As the Earth itself shifted and re-formed, that oil migrated north where it became trapped in the huge amounts of quartz sand left behind by the rivers that once drained into the ancient sea. Within these deposits, lighter hydrocarbons either evaporated or were consumed by bacteria, leaving behind thick, viscous bitumen. As glaciers moved over the sand beds, debris was left behind, and the oil sands were obscured by layers of rock, clay and muskeg, leaving only the outcroppings along the Athabasca and Peace rivers to reveal the riches hidden below.
