Crude Oil

FluidHigh Confidence
Description

Current planner baseline treats Crude Oil as an extracted fluid and oil-field resource rather than a crafted fluid. Public search results and community posts often mix the names Crude Oil, Oil Extractor, and Powerium, so use this page as a route-planning baseline and cross-check your save before you build the full outpost. Biofilament is the clearest downstream reference in the current dataset.

Last Verified: 2026-01-09
Planning context

Crude Oil is extracted, not crafted. The Oil Extractor is the Update 1 building for this fluid and unlocks at Future Health Level 11. This dataset does not include a verified map coordinate for the field.

The current recipe list does not show a downstream craft that consumes Crude Oil.

Where to get Crude Oil: Oil Extractor at Future Health Level 11

There is no verified map pin for a Crude Oil field in this dataset. The building that extracts it is the Oil Extractor, unlocked at Future Health Level 11. Update 1 sources also call the output Powerium.

Open the interactive map and confirm the field on your save before you haul power out to an outpost. A copied coordinate from another guide is not in this record.

The current dataset is thinner here than it is for Sulfuric Acid or Supermagnet. The clearest downstream handoff we can safely point to is Biofilament, while the wider chain is better treated as a live-build verification task than a fixed planner promise.

What to open next: use the map for route planning, the power guide for outpost power checks, and the database before you assume the full oil chain matches one older screenshot or wiki capture.

How to Craft

No crafting recipes found. This item is collected through extraction rather than factory crafting.

Used In

Not used in any known recipes.

How to Obtain
•Treat Crude Oil as an oil-field extraction route, not a crafted-fluid recipe
•Community search results often call the setup Oil Extractor or Powerium; cross-check the naming on your current save
•Use the map and a stable power route before building the outpost
Strategy Tips

• Treat Crude Oil as an outpost-planning problem: route, naming, and power setup usually matter before full recipe math does

• If search results say Powerium while another guide says Crude Oil, cross-check your save before you commit the full extraction build
