Crude oil tanks

3 tanks, 1,000 crude each
How to start them
Put 1 heavy fuse in the Power Plant, then flip the oil switch on the Large Oil Rig or the Oil Rig. One switch runs every tank on the map. The tanks stop when the Power Plant loses power.
Warm-up
Nothing for the first 15 min after the switch turns on. The switch stays on 35 min, so the tanks pump for 20 min.
Crude per pump
Every 20 to 22 s, each tank gets 6 from the Large Oil Rig, 3 from the Oil Rig, or 9 with both switches on.
One switch
about 340 per tank from the Large Oil Rig, about 170 per tank from the Oil Rig. That is about 1030 crude oil across all 3 tanks from one Large Oil Rig run.
Fill a tank
3 Large Oil Rig runs, about 58 min of pumping; 6 Oil Rig runs, about 117 min of pumping; 39 min of pumping with both on.

Times are pumping time, after the warm-up. Crude Oil Producer has the tank's own page.

Rads per second. Your radiation protection subtracts from these, and the game caps protection at 50, so a zone above 50 always lets some through. What to wear names the gear that blocks it, and the radiation guide compares every monument.

What to wear

10% protection stops the strongest zone
Strongest zone
10 rads a second with nothing on. 10% protection stops all of it. The protection of everything you wear adds up.

Rads through is the dose at the strongest spot of the strongest zone with only that piece worn, the same figure as on the piece's own page. Pieces under 10% protection, the strongest zone of the weakest monument, are left out, as they are on the attire pages.

What opening every crate and barrel above once gives, on average, most first. The figures are the ones on each item's own page. Blueprints are not counted.

The Dome pickups

inside the monument area

Hemp, berries, mushrooms and ore you pick up by hand, counted inside the monument area right after the map loads. They spawn at random points, so this is an average and a map can have more or fewer.

A row with several items fills each spot with one of them at the odds shown. A timed row starts with one respawn's worth and adds that many each respawn until it reaches the max. Respawn times hold up to 150 players online; more players make them faster. Rows with no respawn timer fill once when the monument loads.

Methodology

Tested in game on live 4000 maps on our own server: loot containers by type (the average of 8 placed copies; containers spawn at random points, so a map can have a few more or fewer), recyclers, workbenches, research tables, repair benches, keycard readers and their tier, pickups inside the monument area, fuse boxes, NPC capacity, radiation per second and every spawner's limit and respawn time. NPCs are the monument's own guards; tunnel dwellers in a train station below and roadside scientists are not counted. No-building areas, Chinook drop zones, crash sites, train tunnel links and puzzle wiring were tested the same way. Scrap estimates use the measured average scrap per opening of each container type; a container not yet tested counts its guaranteed scrap, marked +. What you find here is each container count times the tested chance and average amount of every item in it, the same figures as the item pages. The crude oil tanks were timed with the Power Plant on and each oil rig switch on, alone and together; per-switch totals and fill times use the 21 s average pump. What to wear takes the protection of each piece off the strongest zone, the same figures as the attire pages. Tested on the current version of Rust.
