Chitoliro chapadera cha mafuta chimagwiritsidwa ntchito makamaka pobowola zitsime za mafuta ndi gasi komanso kutumiza mafuta ndi gasi. Chimaphatikizapo chitoliro chobowola mafuta, chitoliro cha mafuta ndi chitoliro chopopera mafuta. Chitoliro chobowola mafuta chimagwiritsidwa ntchito kulumikiza kolala yobowola ku chobowola ndi mphamvu yotumizira kubowola. Chitoliro cha mafuta chimagwiritsidwa ntchito makamaka pothandizira khoma la chitsime pobowola komanso pambuyo pomaliza, kuti zitsimikizire kuti njira yobowola ikugwira ntchito bwino komanso kuti chitsime chonse chikugwira ntchito bwino pambuyo pomaliza. Chitoliro chopopera mafuta chimasamutsa mafuta ndi gasi kuchokera pansi pa chitsime kupita pamwamba.

Chikwama cha mafutandiye njira yothandiza kwambiri pa ntchito ya chitsime cha mafuta. Chifukwa cha mikhalidwe yosiyanasiyana ya nthaka, mkhalidwe wa kupsinjika kwa pansi pa nthaka ndi wovuta, womangika, wopsinjika, wopindika komanso wopsinjika pa chitoliro, zomwe zimapangitsa kuti pakhale kufunika kwakukulu kwa mtundu wa chitsimecho. Ngati chitsimecho chawonongeka pazifukwa zina, chitsime chonsecho chingachepe kupanga kapena kusiya.

Malinga ndi mphamvu ya chitsulocho, chivundikirocho chingagawidwe m'magulu osiyanasiyana achitsulo, omwe ndiJ55, K55, N80, L80, C90, T95, P110, Q125, V150, ndi zina zotero. Maziko osiyanasiyana a zitsime, kuya kwa chitsime, kugwiritsa ntchito chitsulo chapadera n'kosiyana. Chidebecho chokha chimafunikanso kuti chikhale ndi kukana dzimbiri m'malo owonongeka. M'malo mwa zinthu zovuta za geological, chidebecho chimafunikanso kuti chikhale ndi mphamvu yolimbana ndi kugwa.
