They could trust Gaddafi, he always sold oil to the west. So why would they destroy that reliable source of oil if their motives are, as you say, "oil"? If that was the case they should've helped Gaddafi destroy the rebels. I'm not suggesting that the West has purely humanitarian goals with all this, I think it's also very much a deal of improving one's status. Sarkozy in particular seems very eager to make France a big player in international relations.
