Nah I got deep storage and drums. I do have tanks though check out my refinery post for some pics. its now 3 tanks high for fuel/oil/lava. so over 240,000 bucket capacity not counting the 100s of thousands in drums.

I make little towers with a ring of cobble put the pump and some redstone engines and a tank and pump it back to base. im gathering power for my upcoming universal power generation center so I can use tesseracts to transport energy anywhere I need it.[DOUBLEPOST=1413100824][/DOUBLEPOST]
That is impressive. Still not as impressive as a lake of refined fuel.
I guess I could pour buckets into a hand dug hole but there is no real way I know of to deposit fuel the same way you pump it up.

But come on, imagine a lake of fuel, you know you want to do it. Lava power is easier and is easier to spam anyway.

67 Medium Oil Spouts
37 Large Oil Spouts

Minimum Buckets - 175,200
