Ice harvesting: Difference between revisions

From EVE University Wiki
Ice belts: rewrote the line on Compressing
Ice variants: compressing doesn't change reprocessing either

Like asteroid ore, unrefined ice takes up a large amount of space and can therefore be time-consuming to transport. The best sub-capital ship for transporting ice (and ore) is the [[Miasmos]], a Gallente industrial which can transport up to 63,000&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup> (63 blocks, or about two loads from a [[Mackinaw]]) of ice. If you need to haul even larger quantities, it may be worth training to fly a [[freighter]] (which can hold over ten times as much), or to ship the ice by courier contract.

Ice can also be compressed in Upwell Structures with active Standup Reprocessing Facilities, or by a [[Rorqual]] with an active Industrial Core. Compressed ice takes up only 100&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup> per block.
