Hi!

Oil is a fossil fuel, and all fossil fuels are nonrenewable. So, A and B are automatically out of the equation.

We use oil faster than it can replenish. It can centuries for oil to form, and we simply are using it at such an excessive rate that it doesn't have time to reform time and time again.

Oil is just formed from petroleum, which is a mixture of multiple organic components. It won't just suddenly stop being formed, as it is in-fact naturally occurring.

Hopefully, this helps!
