Our take on Oil Enterprise
The rise from small operator to global magnate is the headline, while the described activity centers on oilfields, facilities, finances, and contracts. The scenarios, free-play option, and multiplayer mode vary the setting for that management, but keep the focus on running an oil business.
What is Oil Enterprise?
Build an oil company from a small operation into a global business.
Acquire production rights in up to 15 regions, develop oilfields, and add pumps, refineries, storage, maintenance buildings, and logistics facilities. Use oil reserves on a dynamic global market, expand the headquarters, and track finances; loans are available when needed. Long-term contracts can raise the company’s reputation and provide access to further contracts, while poor investments or missed obligations can put the business at risk of bankruptcy. Events include earthquakes, exchange-rate fluctuations, and accidents. The game includes 20 scenarios, free play, and multiplayer for up to six players. Two mentors introduce aspects of the oil industry.
