Liquid storage tank

Liquid storage tanks are storages for storing liquid raw and intermediate resources for the production of products in Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic.

Background

Liquid storage tanks are containers designed to hold various types of liquids, ranging from water and oil to chemicals and liquefied gases. Typically made from steel, fiberglass, or concrete, these tanks vary in size and shape to accommodate different needs, from small residential water tanks to large industrial facilities. They play a crucial role in industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, and petroleum, providing safe storage and transportation for liquids. Tank designs often include features like insulation, corrosion resistance, and safety mechanisms to ensure the integrity of the stored liquids and prevent environmental hazards.

Gameplay

Liquid storage tanks are placed by the player near production sites. A liquid storage tank can store only one kind of liquid resource. Liquid resources can't be delivered straight to the liquid storage tank; an additional pumping station is required. Liquid resources can be transported by using tank trucks, or by using pipelines with the help of pumping stations.

Liquid storage tank resources

The following resources can be stored in liquid storage tanks:

• Oil
• Fuel
• Bitumen
• Liquid fertiliser

Transportation

Liquid resources can be transported in Tank trucks, Railway tankers and with pipelines.
