Oil

Oil is a CIT resource used for crafting and trading.

Use

Oil is one of the main resources in CIT.

You can collect it from jobs, some robberies, turf payouts, or buy it from other players.

It can be sold on F7 or used in F9 crafting.

How to get oil

Space Miner, Fuel Transporter, Freight Train Driver missions, Andromada Pilot cargo, LSO Armed Robbery, oil paying turfs, Oil Refinery, Weed Oil Factory, F7 Trading, and civilian State Official Events offering Oil.

LSO Armed Robbery usually gives 388 Oil, with up to 454 seen at the full $34,500 AR cash step. Conversion prices affect the amount; lower cash steps give less, and VIP does not increase the resource reward.

Gas station store robberies give Oil instead of cash: about 130 to 139 Oil at the $11,500 cash value, or 156 to 167 at $13,800 with VIP. The conversion price varies. Hourly Double Earnings doubles the Oil; no Oil is awarded over the earn limit.
