The bottom line

Only about 15% of Crude Petroleum Extraction is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: With no seeded child occupations or products, this scalar is derived entirely from the NAICS lens and industry description. 'Crude Petroleum Extraction' fundamentally relies on heavy industrial operations—drilling wells, operating extraction machinery, and mining surface shales or tar sands. Because the value-producing output requires site-specific, physically demanding machinery operation, it sits firmly in the physical band.

Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Crude Petroleum Extraction sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Crude Petroleum Extraction inherits.

The problems this exposes
