{{tag>:modules:module conforming contemporary oversized water industrial}} [<>] ====== Octan Refinery ====== **Designer:** [[designers:Jennifer Heaton]] **Designed:** July 2010 ===Designer's Notes=== The Octan Refinery is the biggest micropolis build I've done so far. It's really in two parts; the refinery/docks and the ship leaking oil. The ship and oil spill--which were the easy part of the build--get the most attention, both positive ("Cool!") and negative ("That's TERRIBLE!"). I did a lot of research into how oil refineries were designed, and I'm not sure I got everything right, but I made an effort. I still think about lighting this module, especially when I drive past the [[http://www.startribune.com/local/south/182366181.html|Pine Bend Refinery]] at night. I entered this in the [[http://www.reasonablyclever.com/2nd-annual-micropolis-building-challenge/|Second Micropolis Building Contest hosted at ReasonablyClever.com]] and won [[http://www.reasonablyclever.com/sands-of-time-the-winners/|Best in Show]]. {{gallery>?*refinery*.jpg&4&lightbox}} [<>] ---- ~~DISQUS~~
