Short to medium

Pipelines move every fluid in Satisfactory: water for power, crude oil to refineries, fuel to generators, and acids for advanced recipes. They obey head-lift physics, so pumps are needed to push fluids uphill, and balancing flow is its own engineering challenge.

Essential but Fiddly

Fluids can only travel by pipe (or in train freight cars), so pipelines are non-negotiable for fuel and nuclear power. The head-lift and flow quirks keep them mid-tier on the logistics tier list.
