Just murder the sea pickles and get so much oil that America will want to know your location

A safe (albeit cumbersome) way is to just tame a male and female hesperornis, breed a group of female offspring, and have them constantly lay eggs. Hesperornis eggs when cooked in the cooking pot gives oil

Kill basilosaurus= infinite oil

For early game .. just tame Dung Beetles… at least 2 or 3 is enough… put in close area… give dino poop and some spoiled meat… make them wandering… and u will get oil.. at least 4 and also get fertilizer from poop that u give just know… save ur time and can gather oil to make jerky meat… u will get ton of fertilizer and not need to make fertilizer bin…

If you give poop to the dung beetle, after some times it will give you compost as well as oil.

Dung beetles make some oil of ya give them poop.

Tame beetle+poop=oil

Kill Tech Dino’s for it it helps if you have no oil around you

If you want loads of oil then go to herbivore island on an Ichthyosaurus and kill the Basilosaurus the creatures protecting won’t attack you even if you hit them if they do attack it’ll only be for a but then they’ll stop. Each Basilosaurus drops around 200 oil on mobile. Not sure if it would work on Pc or console but you may try it.

You can find oil nodes in the water or you can find a lot in an cold biome, if you have a cryopoded anky and an argentavis you can get a massive amount, just make sure you have some medical brews, otter, fur armor or something else that keeps you warm. I almost died because I only had a fur chest piece, scuba leggings and chitin hat, gloves, and boots and forgot to have medical brews on me.

Everyone needs oil for late-mid-game, so make yourself some fur armor and go to the snowy areas, there is usually alot of oil rocks on the beaches. Use a metal pickaxe to harvest oil.

I think basliosaur actually drop oil naturally if you take it, not sure tough.

Basilosaurus passively makes oil when tamed.

In some snow caves there are oil rocks and i will just go with a pick and get all the oil i want. I know there are caves with oil on rag but i am not sure about other places

In the south west part of herbibore island there's a lot of trilobites, you can go down there with a spino and you will get chitin, oil, and pearls, is not the most efficent way but is the safest

Mining drill and a good wyvern is my favorite way the shiny black rocks along north coast and on icebergs on the island will yeald decent amount of oil and quickly much better then swimming to bottom of ocean

Sea grass rocks give oil watch out for Megalodon and bassoSauris

P.s I don’t know how to spell good

basilosaurus once tamed will produce oil
