For the game, see Pinewood Builders Oil Platform.
The Pinewood Builders Oil Platform is a project development division of Pinewood Builders established in 2017.
It is based on the Pinewood Builders Oil Platform game originally developed and published by sci-fi group JKR Productions as an official Pinewood Builders game from 2015 to 2016 until management conflicts resulted in the game being closed indefinitely. After a lack of interest, the project was made open-source until JKR abandoned the project completely. In 2020, Pinewood showed interest in restarting the game, resulting in JKR making the game closed-source again and its current version being up today.
The group initially hosted the Legacy version of the game, which is the PBOP game as it was in 2016, with a few refinements and bug fixes. The XYLEM division was set to work on a Reimagined version of the Pinewood Oil Platform from scratch after it was finished with the new Pinewood Headquarters. However, in 2024, the "Legacy" label was dropped and work on the Reimagined game was halted in favor of updates to the Legacy game.
This group is just a roleplay group and doesn't actually have anything happening within it.
