This book includes a set of blueprints for early- to mid-game oil processing. The “Basic” blueprint is intended to be used as soon as Oil Processing is researched, and it can theoretically deadlock if light or heavy oil back up. However, once Advanced Oil Processing is researched, the “Advanced” blueprint can be placed directly on top of the existing setup to add cracking and solid fuel production controlled by the circuit network to avoid deadlocks completely.
In addition to the two primary blueprints, all of the individual pieces of the oil processing blueprint—crude refining, lubricant production, heavy oil cracking, light oil cracking, solid fuel from light oil, and solid fuel from petroleum gas—can be extended horizontally effectively indefinitely.
