Oxygen Not Included: Oil Well Development and Oil Reservoir Construction Guide
This video explains how to efficiently develop oil wells and build oil reservoirs in the Oxygen Not Included game. It provides key information on oil well types, construction stages, automation settings, temperature management, natural gas utilization, and generator connections.
1. 🛢️ Starting Oil Well Development: Types and Basics
- ✅ There are two types of oil wells (open type, natural gas contact type), and the development method is the same.
- ✅ Initially, pump the liquid at the bottom for use.
- ⚠️ You should start developing the oil well immediately after the refinery starts operating.

2. 🏗️ Step-by-Step Guide to Oil Well Construction
- ✅ Build the oil well above the oil reservoir. Use the lead around the area as material.
- ✅ Raise it four tiles above the bottom of the oil well, then block it with tiles.

3. ⚙️ Oil Well Design and Automation Settings
- ✅ Install walls to trap the natural gas coming from the oil well.
- ✅ Install crude oil pumps on both sides to supply crude oil.
- ✅ Use a liquid input sensor to keep it below 150kg.
- ✅ Use a liquid pump and slime to keep the crude oil on the bottom surface between 100kg and 150kg.

4. 💧 Building Water Piping and Crude Oil Extraction System
- ✅ Connect water pipes to supply water to the oil well.
- ✅ Use radiant pipes to extract crude oil.
- ✅ Circulate radiant pipes inside to lower the temperature during the oil well mixing process.

5. ⚡ Power Supply and Oil Well Priority Settings
- ✅ Supply power using transformers and slime.
- ✅ Use gas pumps and gas pressure sensors to create a vacuum inside.
- ✅ Set the oil well's priority to 9 and lower the mixing to about 50%.
- ✅ If the oil well stops, the refinery and power plant also stop, so it must always be kept running.
04:27 - 05:28
6. 🌡️ Temperature Management: Importance of Installing Heat Conduction Plates
- ✅ Install diamond heat conduction plates to prevent problems caused by 200-degree natural gas coming from the oil well.
- ✅ Install the heat conduction plates overlapping the water pipes to lower the temperature through heat exchange.
- ✅ Helps extract only crude oil from the liquid pump and prevents damage to the refinery.
05:29 - 06:36
7. 💨 Utilizing Natural Gas and Connecting Generators
- ✅ Before mixing, the gas pump creates a vacuum to create an environment with only natural gas.
- ✅ Draw natural gas to the base and connect it to the natural gas generator.
- ✅ Use a bridge to give priority to the natural gas coming from the oil well.
- ✅ Set the priority of the natural gas generator high to prevent oil well failure.

8. ✅ Oil Well Development Complete and Wrap-up
- ✅ Oil well development is complete.
