Oil Ocean Zone is a huge oil refinery, so huge in fact the water has turned black from all the pollution of the machinery. You will need to take it easy as it is loaded with dangers either from the machinery or the Badniks.

Gas ovens surrounded by spikes pop their lids which momentarily land. Should you be underneath one of these you die. Be on top of one and you will probably end up being pushed inside a machine with a spring inside. This will then send you through a series of balloon type cannons throwing you from one to the next.

Plenty of collapsing bridges are around to send you into that black water. Fans litter the levels providing force against where you want to go and for not falling into the water. These can be tricky should they be in a series over a large gap.

Oil flows down small channels offer a rapid ride should you touch it. This can build you up some speed. Pressure springs return here, but only a few though.

The Badniks on this stage come are everywhere though the water itself will be the main hazard. The sea horses move around quickly as you go to jump on them and launch a projectile. The octopuses pose a minor challenge.

Robotnik on this stage poses quite a threat though the biggest in this battle is the water. You have two platforms with a section of water in the middle. The first time he appears he'll be venerable. Jump on him as many times as possible, just make sure you have enough bounce to get you back on the platform. He'll submerge and then send up a homing claw. A good timed jump will avoid this. Next to appear will be his wondering laser. This will fire a few shots in the air which is not really a problem. When it reaches level with the platform it will fire an unexpected shot that will scorch the surface so be prepared for an evasive jump. The next time it appears instead a shot will be fired when level with your head so duck or jump.
