Oil Pump

The Oil Pump is a building used to extract from its respective Resource node. It outputs oil barrels onto a connected Conveyor Belt (Experimental: Outputs Liquid Crude Oil into a connected Pipeline).

Extraction time
Here is the extraction time depending on the Ratio of overclocking. To calculate the oil pump mining speed:

120 x [node purity modifier] x [overclock percent] = Extract time

 Node purity modifier  :


 * Impure = 0.5x,
 * Normal = 1.0x,
 * Pure = 2.0x.

Overclocking
The Oil Pump can be overclocked up to 250% speed, at the cost of greatly increased power consumption.

Trivia
Similar to Miners, an oil pump can be built on an oil node even if the node is completely covered by foundations. The normal extraction rate is 120 resources per minute (requires at least Mk. 2 conveyor), 240 resources per minute on pure nodes (requires at least Mk. 3 conveyor) and 60 resources per minute on impure nodes (requires at least Mk. 1 conveyor).

History

 * Patch 0.3: UI overhaul, now has a Pipeline output and produces Liquid Crude Oil. Stored Crude Oil now shows in the integrated tanks of the pump.
 * Patch 0.1.5 (experimental): changed crafting cost from 2 Heavy Modular Frame, 3 Motor, and 10 Cable to 5 Heavy Modular Frame, 10 Motor, and 30 Cable
