Unsaturated hydrocarbons with double bonds are produced from the alkanes in crude oil by a process called cracking. 

Cracking uses heat and a catalyst to decompose alkanes. 
The cracking process is important because it turns less useful alkanes into more useful smaller ones and produces very useful alkenes like ethene, the starting material for many plastics.
