Oil deposits being the result of orgaic matter decomposition

we tap first gas then crude oil, but in between gas and crude oil there generaly exists an intermediate product we call condensates, which are mostly made of C5.
After that the deposit has its peculiarities,it can made of a lot of gas and a little oil or the reverse depending on the degree of decomposition of the organic matter trapped.
Such process depending on time (to be counted in milleniums),pressure and temperature.
Like in a pressure cooker!
