Pipelines

Pipelines are used to transport liquid and gas from one location to another underground. Unlike Trains, Trucks and Ships, you have near-complete control over the construction of pipelines.

Crude Oil

Near meaning there is a crucial gap in your control. Crude Oil pipelines run from Oil Wells and Oil Rigs to a refinery, where you can build your pipelines for Oil and Natural Gas.

Oil

Oil Pipelines run from Refineries to Oil Power Plants. Oil Storage Tanks can also be attached to the system.

Natural Gas

Natural Gas Pipelines run through a series of locations. First, it travels from a Refinery to a Depressurization Facility. From there, smaller pipelines deliver it to industry and/or another Depressurization Facility that reduces the pressure further. After traveling through two Depressurization Facilities, the natural gas can be sent through even smaller pipelines to homes and businesses.

Coal Gas

Coal Gas Pipelines are much different than the others. They run exclusively from Gasworks to Gaslamps, and are available for construction only prior to widespread electricity.

Coal Slurry

Coal Slurry is a pipeline method of transporting solid coal. It runs from a Mineral Processing Plant at a Coal Mine to a Slurry Filter, where it is filtered into coal dust and used like normal coal.
