Looking at their wealth breakdown now:

$12.7B from Georgia-Pacific (a "pulp and paper company")

$10.6B from "Other Businesses"

$9.6B from Koch Pipeline (petroleum)

$4.5B from Flint Hills Resources (refining/chemicals/biofuels)

$3.8B from Molex ("connectors and interconnect components")

$3.5B from Koch Fertilizer

$3.0B from Invista ("polymers and fibers")

all other sources below $2B

Looks pretty diversified to me. Just because they made their fortune in petroleum doesn't mean that's currently the largest source of their wealth.
