Small Petroleum Engine

Small Petroleum Engine

Burns Petroleum to propel rockets for mid-range space exploration.

Small Petroleum Engines possess the same speed as a Petroleum Engines but have smaller height restrictions.

Engine must be built via Rocket Platform, and requires an oxidizer tank.

Once the engine has been built, more rocket modules can be added.

Rockets can be used to send Duplicants into space and retrieve rare resources.
