Fuel is a production resource which can be used as fuel[1] or be exported for cash.
Background
A fuel is any material that can be made to react with other substances so that it releases energy as thermal energy or to be used for work. The concept was originally applied solely to those materials capable of releasing chemical energy but has since also been applied to other sources of heat energy, such as nuclear energy (via nuclear fission and nuclear fusion).
Gameplay
Fuel is a resource available after refining oil in an oil refinery. Oil is pumped from the ground with help of a pumpjack and refined in an oil refinery, with leaving the availble resources fuel and bitumen.
Fuel is an end product and can be sent to a Gas Station or a Train Diesel Station, or it can be sent to export.
Production
The player sends oil to an oil refinery, where the oil is refined to fuel and bitumen.
Storage
Fuel may be stored in Oil/Fuel storage buildings.
Transportation
Fuel can be transported by using oil tank trucks or by trains using tanker cargo wagons. Also pipes are a means of transportation.
