'''Heavy Oil''' is a [[liquid]] converted from [[Crude Oil]] in an [[Oil refinery]].


Heavy Oil can be converted into [[Light Oil]] or [[Lubricant]], used to create [[Solid fuel]], or used as part of [[Flamethrower Ammo]].
'''Heavy oil''' is a liquid produced by refining [[crude oil]] in an [[oil refinery]] or extracted in [[Fulgora]] using an [[offshore pump]]. It can be processed into [[light oil]], [[solid fuel]] and [[lubricant]]. It is more efficient to process heavy oil into light oil before creating solid fuel from it. It can also be used as ammo in [[flamethrower turret]]s.


Note that more Solid Fuel can be produced by cracking the Heavy Oil into Light Oil first, then making fuel; directly producing Solid Fuel from Heavy Oil is not recommended.
Heavy oil can be obtained on [[Vulcanus]] using [[Simple coal liquefaction]]. This can be upgraded to [[Coal liquefaction]] once some initial heavy oil has been obtained.
 
Heavy oil cannot be obtained directly on [[Gleba]]. However, coal liquefaction can be used if a small amount of heavy oil is shipped in from elsewhere to kick start the process.

Heavy oil is a liquid produced by refining crude oil in an oil refinery or extracted in Fulgora using an offshore pump. It can be processed into light oil, solid fuel and lubricant. It is more efficient to process heavy oil into light oil before creating solid fuel from it. It can also be used as ammo in flamethrower turrets.

Heavy oil can be obtained on Vulcanus using Simple coal liquefaction. This can be upgraded to Coal liquefaction once some initial heavy oil has been obtained.

Heavy oil cannot be obtained directly on Gleba. However, coal liquefaction can be used if a small amount of heavy oil is shipped in from elsewhere to kick start the process.
