Buying and Selling Refineries   General Information Buy / Sell Refineries Each refinery can refine up to 25,000,000 gallons of crude per turn.   As you get more net worth, you will want to refine more crude per turn, so buying refineries is necessary.  If, however, you need quick cash and you have more than 1 refinery, selling refineries is a quick way to get it.
