The '''methane refinery''' is a [[Covenant]] structure.{{Ref/Level|Id=hw|HW|Relic Approach}}
[[File:Methane_refinery.png|thumb|right|300px|A methane refinery.]]


==Design details==
The '''Methane Refinery''' is a [[Covenant]] structure.  
As its name suggests, the methane refinery likely refines [[methane]] into canisters for the use of [[Unggoy]] troops. They are often deployed with large methane storage tanks.{{Ref/Reuse|hw}}


==History==
==Use==
Outside the [[Relic (location)|relic]] on [[Harvest]], the [[Covenant]] set up a methane refinery. In [[2531#February|February, 2531]], a [[unidentified Spartan-II|Spartan-II]] fought 25 Covenant soldiers at that methane refinery. The Spartan killed [[seven]] Covenant soldiers, but was quickly killed by the [[Sangheili]] [[Ustaf 'Nbekee]]. As a war prize, the [[Unggoy]] under 'Nbekee's command were allowed to play games with the Spartan's helmet.{{Ref/Site|Id=HWLS|URL=http://halo.xbox.com/halowars/index.html?fbid=0eK_L23l9WQ|Site=halo.xbox.com|Page=Halo Wars Launch Site|Detail=(Defunct)|D=12|M=8|Year=2010|NoArchive=Yes|LocalArchive=Halo Wars Launch Site}} Later, at the same methane refinery site, UNSC forces led by [[Sergeant]] [[John Forge]] from [[Alpha Base (Harvest)|Alpha Base]] launched an assault and destroyed the methane refinery before they arrived at the relic.{{Ref/Reuse|hw}}
The structure produces methane tanks. A Methane Refinery would, as its name suggests, probably refine [[methane]] for packaging in air canisters for the use of Covenant [[Unggoy]].


==In-game information==
==Known methane refineries==
Two Methane Refineries appear on the ''[[Halo Wars]]'' level [[Relic Approach]]. One of the optional objectives on the level is to destroy both methane refineries as well as the large cylindrical storage tanks in the surrounding area. Destruction of the refineries removes the Covenant's ability to send in dropships. Destroying the smaller methane canisters scattered around the level unlocks the [[Endless Fun]] achievement.
Outside the [[Relic]] on [[Harvest]], the [[Covenant]] set up a methane refinery. In [[2531#February|February 2531]] an [[Unidentified Spartan-II]] engaged 25 Covenant soldiers with no backup at that methane refinery. The Spartan killed [[seven]] Covenant soldiers but was quickly killed by the [[Sangheili]] [[Ustaf 'Nbekee]]. As a war prize, the [[Unggoy]] under 'Nbekee's command were allowed to play games with the Spartan's helmet.<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/halowars/index.html?fbid=ZsLGVfiLECd ''Official Halo Wars Website''] - dead link; not archived</ref> Later on at the same methane refinery site it was possible for UNSC forces to assault and destroy the methane refinery on Harvest before they arrived at the [[Relic]].
