How to obtain OIL JACKS mark 2

I know oil wells come with the standard oil jacks that pump up 1200 units (barrels per hour???)

I know these standard oil jacks CAN be upgraded somehow to pump up 2400 units.

What I don't know is how to obtain the upgraded jacks..........

The story:

I joined a random game once on my server. Already some mega cities were up and running, so I hitched a ride on a lot of regional upgrades as I started.
When I placed an oil well, I tried to place more oil jacks. That's when I was actually able to expand with oil jacks that pump up 2400!!!
So with the courtesy of a neighboring city that had some kind of upgrade.......................but I never figured out what it was.

 

Ever since I've tried every combination possible to obtain it myself, but so far I have no clue as to how. :-(

Is it an add-on to your City Hall? University or other educational thingie? One of the many specialized incorporation towers?

I've searched the internet for an answer. 
I ran across lots of references to the standard wikipedias that just covers the building as it is. Not the upgrades. 
I haven't found any kind of tech tree either. Like what building unlocks what other building perhaps. 
And youtube is flooded with clips, but all I encounter there are dozens of corny vidblogs of people who think they can explain the game, but all you get is 10 to 15 minutes of "eeeeehhh..........well............uhhhhhm...... " per clip.  

 

Does anyone know what I'm talking about and can anyone help me on this?

Seems to be SC2013 related.  Moved to SC2013 General Discussion.

It requires the OmegaCo and Academy expansion pack, Cities of tomorrow. You must have the OmegaCo HQ and the Extraction division.

    Oooooooohhh......... so that's it.

    I probably shared that random game with someone who had the Cities of Tomorrow expansion pack. 
    I know if you do that, you can also use some of them features in your city.

    Thanks for the info!!!

    No wonder I couldn't find anything at all about it in the common SimCity stuff.

    And wish I knew half a dozen brain killing youtube videos earlier...........................

    yeah, some of the SC youtubers can just be stupid, but there are some really funny and good ones: PM me if you want a list of cool youtube channels, I've spent a year browsing for good, PG13 SC and video game youtube channels.
