Oil production plant is either by pipeline or tanker. Oil production plant An oil production plant (sometimes called an oil terminal) is a facility which performs processing of production fluids from oil wells in order to separate out key components and prepare them for export. This is distinct from an oil depot, which does not have processing facilities. Typical production fluids are a mixture of oil, gas and produced water. Many permanent offshore platforms have full oil production facilities on board. Smaller platforms and subsea wells must export raw production fluid to the nearest production facility, which may be on a nearby offshore
