The oil in the lantern will slowly burn until it is depleted, at which point the lantern will automatically go out and cannot be lit again until more is added. Lamp oil containers can be found throughout Amnesia: Rebirth, albeit less frequently than matches. They come in small, blue, glass containers and shimmer faintly, making them significantly easier to find.
Lamp oil comes in containers of three types in Amnesia: Rebirth:
Small
Medium
Large
A small container adds two (2) points of oil out of ten; a medium container adds three (3) points of oil; and a large container add five (5) points of oil. The player can hold up to three small Lamp Oils in one inventory slot; up to four medium lamp oils in another inventory slot; and up to two large lamp oils in yet another inventory slot. If a specific-sized lamp oil is fully stacked in the inventory, a player will not be able to pick up additional lamp oils of that size, even if there are other, free inventory spaces.
There are also larger, barrel-like oil containers that can be found in several levels. These are usually hidden in a corner of a room somewhere and will restore a varying amount. The less oil Tasi has in her inventory, the more it will fill her lantern; it can restore anywhere from 25-100% of the lantern's total oil capacity.
There are a currently unknown number of oil canisters in Amnesia: Rebirth.
