Does the fire eventually burn away the oil and destroy it, or is the fire everlasting? Because, if its everlasting, that'd be good for a real Hell-type world.If you do feel the need to get rid of instability effects, do not use Charged to balance everything out. Depending on what version of Buildcraft you're using, all the oil will set on fire.
Unless you want that to happen... then by all means, do it and show me the results

Wow what a coincidence, I just posted something in my thread Mystcraft Stable Ages about an oil age i created, and I haven't been able to get an Oil age that is totally instability free. :l Oh well here is a link to my thread, take a look:

If one does this should multiple tanks be set up in the Overworld for all the pumped oil? The instabilities concern me and I would think that it may be best to get in, suck as much of the land dry as you can and get out. Something like 2 max sized Railcraft Tanks or a GT Quantum Tank would do it. Unless the instabilities are not THAT bad. Mining fatigue? pssh no problem. Meteors? Yeah, problem.
Stability is randomly generated as the ages are.
But they're also in order of magnitude, so if you added diamond ore tendrils to that oil ocean for example, you might end up with what's called decay, which will eventually consume a world.
But as it stands with no stability adding pages, it seems to be in the range of potion debuffs, and if you're unlucky perhaps meteors, or charged, or scorched surface etc.

I got unlucky and got block decay in my world, but honestly the oil ocean is so vast I could fill max sized oil tanks easily without any trouble and then just make a new world when the need to pump again comes up.
Once you have a pump and two tesseracts just set up, watch it pump and then leave. Fuel is great in that it will take a while to use up so don't chunkload it, just pop in once in a while to top up the tanks.

I tried making the world using the page order on the OP, however, it doesn't seem to work.
All of the pages work fine on their own, but if I try adding oil, it screws everything up and makes a random world.
I'm using the Ultimate pack with some extra mods like Biomes o Plenty (if needed I will post all the added mods)

If one wants to make an oil age in Unleashed, one is best off making an oil desert instead of trying to use the oil block page to replace water in an oil ocean. The oil desert biome has a ridiculously large number of oil spouts and many of them are connected underground such that one pump will drain a considerable area. The oil page basically always adds significant instability. I was not able to generate an age without decay, half my platform vanished instantly during one test.
If you really wanted to cheat, you could also make an ocean age, then open your world in MCedit (might have to switch dimensions or something), and then have it replace all water with whatever the ID oil is for your pack. It'll show up as purple blocks in MCedit, but when you load it up in game, it should properly replace all water with oil.
I should really try this! Then I could pump oil into my semifluid generators and then bam an efficient oil power plant.
Theoretically a desert/ocean oil field only world should have sufficient oil with no instability (if the age is written properly), right?
Practically I have made an (incomplete) book with desert oil field only, the biome is properly set but somehow there's no oil
