It looks to me as though organics can become oil: en.wikipedia.org That's just in low pressure and temperature engineering process.

Take it all 200km underground, heat it up and really cook it for a long time and see what happens. Filter it up through zeolite clays and what-not.

If that's not what happens to the sedimentary oceanic organics, what does happen to them?

The molecules don't just disappear. They definitely get subducted [other than the flysch wedge part]. They therefore get really hot under high pressure and the mass becomes liquids.

What next? Lava definitely floats up and volcanoes blast as the organics are burned. What happens to those organic molecules which don't go up volcanoes? They are under the ground somewhere. Being lighter than dirt and water they float upwards.

Where did they go? Maybe it was magic like they make somebody disappear right there before your eyes. That doesn't seem a good explanation. I can't think of it doing anything except leaking out or being trapped as we see all around the world.
