Oil Refining

[Hephcestus]

Hello guys, I have a problem in my FTB world. I am a huge refiner of oil, and I use it as my main source of power. The problem is, that all of my near-by wells have run dry. The nearest one is about 400 blocks away, and I really dont want to pipe the oil all of the way back to my base. So I was thinking about maybe canning and uncanning and transporting it through an ender chest but maybe you guys have a better solution.

Thanks

Options for liquid transport:
1. Teleportation - Tesseracts, Ender tanks, transposer + ender chest/item tesseracts.
2. Cart-based - Tank carts combined with some manner of transport (regular rails, portal mod portals, mystcraft portals).
3. Silly - Liquid transposer + turtle.

For more information on any of these setups, either ask, or watch the myraid of videos (DW20 usually ends up moving things long-distance in odd ways).

Why don't you just use oil fabricators? Very easy to use, profit depends on whether you get less from combustion or more from steam.

ender tanks are the best
or you could get those bees that make oil

Oily for just oily comb, refined for oil comb and petroleum comb.
