To get oil out of the ground, produce the gas/diesel and pump it into you car how much electricity does it take?

Electricity used
- Drilling takes huge amounts mostly produced by diesel generators
- Pumping
- Refining
- Pumping into transport trucks
- Running a gas station.
- I'am sure there are other electrify users in the process

Just wondering if the electric used to produce the gas/diesel would drive a electric vehicle further than the gas/diesel does?
If this is so then there is all the electrify that is needed to power electric transport available right know if it was not used to produce gas/diesel.
