Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness Hints
Oil Platform
Oil Platforms are built by Oil Tankers, and are put over oil patches. This is how your Tankers get their oil to haul back to your town. You can't repair them, so have a good defense around. A Zeppelin or Flying Machine should be hovering right by one as well, in case the enemy comes up with a surprise attack from underwater. It's a good strategy to destroy an enemy Oil Platform before going for the rest of the ships. They'll build a new one, but at least you can slow down their oil drilling, and thus curb their production of ships.
