Barrels can be used to store and transport 25 units of Crude Oil as solid as an alternate to pipes when Fluid handling is researched.


Empty barrel

The Empty barrel can be crafted and while Crude oil barrels are emptied the Assembling machine will also return an Empty barrel.

Example for usability

Barrels could get very handy in situations where pipes are no or a bad option, for example oil production in distant outposts (Remote pump station). With Barrels Crude Oil could be transported with Transport belts, with Logistic robots, by the Railway network or in the avatars inventory.
