Petroleum gas is a fluid created in an oil refinery from crude oil or coal, or in a chemical plant or Biochamber from light oil. Petroleum gas is used to create plastic bars and sulfur, important ingredients for mid-to-high-level recipes.

Petroleum gas can also be used to create solid fuel, but the ratio of fuel created is not as efficient as that of light oil, and petroleum gas is usually too valuable to waste.

Building	Process	Results
Oil refinery	Basic oil processing	5 + 100 → 45
Oil refinery	Advanced oil processing	5 + 100 + 50 → 55 + ( 25 + 45 )
Chemical plant + Biochamber	Light oil cracking	2 + 30 + 30 → 20
Oil refinery	Coal liquefaction	5 + 10 + 25 + 50 → 10 + ( 90 + 20 )
