You can use plain olive oil in lamps. You don't need extra virgin or expensive oil. Don't use infused oils.
When I visited Abingdon Olive Oil Company, they gave a great tasting of a wide variety of olive oils and balsamic vinegar that can be combined for consumption. No clue what oil can be used in hurricane lamps. Suggest checking with the manufacturer of your lamp or a hardware store.
