The fuel cost for each jump does not depend on the number of stargate jumps to the destination. It depends on the distance between the two systems in space (measured in light-years). Each jump drive has a maximum jump range, and consumes a certain amount of fuel per light-year. The maximum jump range is extended by the skill [[Skills:Navigation#Jump_Drive_Calibration|Jump Drive Calibration]] (25% increase per level), and the fuel consumption is reduced by the skill [[Skills:Navigation#Jump_Fuel_Conservation|Jump Fuel Conservation]] (10% reduction per level). Jump freighters also have their required fuel reduced by the [[Skills:Spaceship_Command#Jump_Freighters|skill required to fly them]]. These three skills make a huge difference to the base figures, as shown in the table. Jump ranges used to be significantly longer (3.5-6.~~5ly~~ base ranges) but were shortened during the October 2014 Phoebe release as part of an effort to reduce long range power projection in nullsec.
