Hi,

How much EU does 100 cans of gas generate.

How much total EU does Advanced Fuel Pump use to produce 100 cans

How much total EU does an Oil Refinery use to refine 100 petroleum in to 100 gasoline and 100 mineral oil.

This info will help me greatly thank you !

So i went ahead and manually checked for myself. For those interested:

100 Gas Cans = +75,000 EU
100 Peteoleum, 100 Gas Cans and 100 Mineral Oil = -60,000 EU

100 Mineral Oil to Gas converions = -25,000 EU and +75,000 EU

So,

150,000 EU - 85,000 EU = 65,000 EU

1 Gas can = 750 EU

Excess Gas = 65,000 EU / 750
Excess Gas = 86 Gas Cans.

This means 1 shuffle provides energy for itself and leaves excess of 86 cans. Good idea if you want to keep the Extraction/Refinery claim seperate.

MGS, did you research as well what is the speed with which the different extractors will pump up the oil, how long does the refinery take to refine it and the cracking plant to convert it?
Once we know the time it takes for our plants to run through the canister stacks, we can optimise our conversion rates.
