An example of a Crude Oil Pocket

Crude Oil Pockets are generated structures found on the Overworld where Crude Oil can be found and extracted with the Portable Oil Extractor.

From GC version 3.0.0.156 and later, oil works like this:

  • You won't have oil in the middle of caves or abandoned minecrafts, like in that screenshot - oil will only be generated inside rock formations (or other blocks)
  • Instead of the numerous small pockets of oil, there is now a smaller number (40% of what it was before) of larger oil reservoirs.
  • Oil is more common in desert and ocean biomes.
  • Oil is not common in any type of hills biome.

If upgrading from an older GC3, to get the new oil generation, you would need to re-generate your Overworld - otherwise you will find the old system in any part of the Overworld you already explored.

It is still possible to find oil in a Stronghold (behind the walls etc).

Shape

Values of a crude oil pocket, they may vary:

  • Shape: spheroid (flattened sphere)
  • Size: 17 x 17 wide. 9 tall.
  • Volume: 829 Crude Oil blocks

Config

Tips

  • If you have Mekanism installed, use the Seismic Vibrator to find Crude Oil Pockets.
