Does the earth need oil to lubricate itself?

Question

It seems like the worst earthquakes are happening in oil producing countries. I wonder if it has anything to do with the extraction of oil. I know there are exceptions. Please, only intelligent answers and opinions.

Answer 1

Earthquakes happen in almost every continent and are the result of pressure on the fault lines in the earth's crust. drilling for oil could not have a impact on the condition of these fault lines.
