Description
Williams Sub Oil Refinery by Populous

Robert Williams was an accomplished salt miner in1849 until the day he drilled into this pesky black fluid we now know of as oil… Williams Oil company was formed. The game will place this asset as it sees fit.

The oldest and most common way to separate compounds into various components (called fractions), was to utilize the differences in boiling temperature. This process is called fractional distillation. You basically heat crude oil up, let it vaporize and then condense the vapor.

Newer techniques use chemical processing known as conversion. Chemical processing can break longer oil chains into shorter ones. This allows a refinery to turn diesel fuel into gasoline depending on the demand for gasoline.

The products are stored on-site until they can be delivered to various markets such as gas stations, airports and chemical plants. In addition to making the oil-based products, refineries must also treat the wastes involved in the processes to minimize air and water pollution

Sub oil is not refined, tastes like olive oil

Ah, they place automatically in game. The game actually chooses which building goes where and so will choose this as one that can be placed. Thank you for asking.

@Populous, Thanks for the effort in an area that is still lacking (oil industry) quality assets. A little disappointed that you haven't posted asset stats and/or your normal creative blurb ;-p thanks all the same.
