Your current gear is a good set-up. However instead of the Default Frag perhaps invest in a M79. I occasionally use a Smoke Grenade for its portability and possible cover for a grenade or two.

Also instead of the Anti-Flash Goggles, try using the Elite 5th Bandanna for 30% extra sprint. This will help you get farther away from Infected than pure speed as Oil Rig is a medium sized map. For maps like Junk Flea go for pure speed.

The Default Frag is near useless on larger maps such as Kill Creek.

My tips for Oil Rig:


 * Try to plant mines in high-traffic areas (such as the door from Alpha roof to Cafeteria Hallway)


 * Safe Rooms aren't always safe. Though the safe-room you're in is closed, the other one might not be.


 * Know the map well (know where you can jump off and ETC)


 * DO NOT camp at the safe room from the beginning, especially not the one near Alpha with the crate. You can easily be trapped and infected. Instead stay in a wider area such as the HeliPad on top of Bravo. Then migrate your way to a safe room.


 * Your pistol is your best friend. Not your mines, RPG, LAW, M79 or grenades. Use your pistol well and wisely, it will help you escape many tight situations. Auto pistols (G18 Carbon Black or G18 Cobra) or high capacity (G23 series) pistols work the best. One well placed pistol shot can delay the Infected a few seconds.


 * HIding does not work well on Oil Rig because there are no great hiding spots.


 * Contrary to what James and Muddy said, Oil Rig is a great place to free run. Just not the conventional free run. You have to adapt to the "terrain" of Oil Rig. The drops and rises of Oil Rig are great for getting rid of a pesky Infected or two... or 15 of them. Have your pistol ready after a drop to delay the Infected even further.


 * Planting mines next to existing mines is a waste. It would be more efficient to plant mines a slight distance's away. The Infected comes along and sees the first set of mines, gets around it thinking that there are no more mines. Nope, yours is right there and BOOM!

PS. If you have a mutagen equipped, you get one extra grenade. You do not need the extra Default Grenade.

I cannot give tips for Neptune. I rarely play Neptune. Sorry :c
