So I want to make a massive oil refinery to be a energy source and was wondering if there was a way to send oil to my refinery in my base that is not near my base. I'm guessing using ender chests, but don't know what to do besides that.

Use liquid transposers that have oil pumped into them to creat oil capsules/cans/buckets that get sent into the enderchest. The contents are extracted on the other side into a liquid transposer that takes out the oil and sends the capsules/cans/buckets into an enderchest. The capsules/cans/buckets are then pumped back into the first transposer.

Yeah liquid transposers work fine, and for vanilla fluids like water and lava you can even use aluminum from xycraft for cans. Doesn't work with oil or fuel atm though.

There is also an unofficial version of additional pipes that gives you the good old teleport pipes, it works fine with dw20 and mindcrack, I didn't even have to change ID's. I won't post the link though, as people seem to be kinda touchy around here with unofficially updated mods, even if they seem to have been abandoned for months... PM me if you want it... (@mods: if even that's not ok, feel free to edit/delete this post).

I remember an episode of DW's server series where he used a Liquid Transposer/Pump, and had a CC Turtle go and grab stacks of the oil at a time, and come back to base via GPS and deposit his goods.
