It is the only fluid resource obtained from resource nodes, and is extracted using Oil Extractors instead of Miner. It can be transported via Pipelines, be packaged for Conveyor transportation or be transported via Fluid train

Obtaining
Its resource nodes may be located using the Resource Scanner after unlocked. It can't be mined manually; it has to be extracted with an Oil Extractor. Oil is commonly located far away from the player starting point, so a well-prepared exploration is advised. Since Pipelines are limited to 300/min, the maximum extraction rate is 7500/min.

Tips
