WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Find Crude Oil nodes and wells on the resource map, then verify the source type and location in your world. Pipe extracted oil to a Refinery running the intended recipe.

Crude Oil is a raw liquid extracted from resource nodes or wells, then refined into products such as Fuel, Plastic, and Rubber. Use the structure that matches your source: an Oil Extractor for a node, or a Resource Well Pressurizer on a well’s core with Resource Well Extractors on its satellites. Refineries can produce coproducts, so plan outlets for every output. The resource map shows the standard layout; randomized worlds may differ.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • An accessible Crude Oil node or well.
  • Oil Extractor for a node, or Resource Well Pressurizer and Resource Well Extractors for a well.
  • Refinery, selected recipe, fluid connections, and outlets for all products.
  1. Filter the resource map for Crude Oil and identify whether the chosen source is a node or well.
  2. Confirm the source in your world and place the matching extraction equipment.
  3. For a node, build an Oil Extractor; for a well, place a Resource Well Pressurizer on its core and Resource Well Extractors on satellites.
  4. Connect power and pipe the extracted oil to your production area.
  5. Set a Refinery to the desired unlocked recipe: Fuel, Plastic, or Rubber.
  6. Provide outlets for every coproduct and check pipes and buffers if the Refinery stops.

Farming tips

  • Fuel production also yields Polymer Resin; Plastic and Rubber production yield Heavy Oil Residue.
  • Packaged Oil is made in a Packager; packaging does not extract Crude Oil.
  • Match map expectations to your world’s resource settings.

Repeat, collect and use

Keep oil flowing and clear or consume coproducts before they back up into the Refinery.

Common mistakes

  • Do not use an Oil Extractor on a well; wells need a Pressurizer on the core and Extractors on satellites.
  • Do not leave coproduct outlets blocked; a full output can halt Refinery production.

When to stop or switch

Stop adding extraction or Refinery capacity when product demand is met and all coproduct outlets remain clear.

Farming route

Crude Oil

Scan for Crude Oil nodes and inspect accessible sites. Resource Wells are a separate later extraction option; compare the available oil source with the intended refinery location and fluid route.

  • An Oil Extractor and pipeline for an oil node.
  • For a Resource Well: unlocked Resource Well Pressurizer and Extractors, plus power.
  • Refineries, power, fluid pipes, and planned output handling for the selected recipes.
