There is an oil called Fusing Oil specifically designed for fusing
circuit boards (heating the tin-lead plating to a point where it alloys
to solder) that could be used. Another route is to use a heat gun on the
back side and use the "slam-bang" method of removing the chips. Having
used all three methods, I prefer the solder pot approach, but it is not
always available. My second choice is the slam-bang method :).

I strongly diagree. Using oil (even olive, as peanut and vegtable oil is
banned in my kitchen) is asking for a messy burn.
Use what the "pros" use: solder and a solder pot.
