There are no such A Level subjects that are called Petroleum, Geology or Earth Sciences.

Geography or Environmental Management are two subjects that may cover the same syllabus as Petroleum, Geology and/or Earth Sciences.

I sent the university this question

and they told me you can give SAT 1 and ACT and your high school transcripts evaluated from a Outside Agency Like NAS etc. You can get the information regarding agencies dealing with these problems at your local US embassy and their educational advising centre

Go for SATI, and SAT II if you want to get to a really good university. Take the IELTS test too to prove your english proficiency and apply for universities in the US.

Or if you want to go for a university in UK, A level is important.

US recommends TOEFL and not IELTS.

Nope. They accept both and treat them as equal.
