Petroleum, and more precisely, Petro-chem, includes studies in plastics, medicines, food additives and many other aspects beyond fuels.

This mean the activities related to what lies beneath the ground. There may also be come training on the production, separation and treating of the oil and gas once it reaches the surface but nothing to do with refineries or petrochemical activities. That is the area of chemical engineering.
