Lubricant is a liquid converted from Heavy oil in a Chemical plant.

It is used in the production of Express transport belts, Express underground belts, Express splitters, and Electric engine units. Lubricant is often created and stored close to or next to Heavy Oil tanks. It is recommended that you do not produce more than 2 Storage tanks of lubricant, as there are not many uses for it. The few uses that it does have are often limited, and are therefore more large bursts rather than there being a high usage such as there is with Petroleum gas in Plastic production.
