Refuelling Systems are [[components]] that allow [[ships]] to pass [[fuel]] to other ships. They are one of two ways to refuel your ships, the other being [[Refuelling Station]]/[[Spaceport]] [[installations]] on a [[colony]]. In order to use a Refuelling System, the ship must also be designated as a [[tanker]].

'''Fuelling Speed''' unlocks improved models of standard-sized Refuelling Systems. It also affects the fuelling speed of hubs - there is only one hub module, which does not need to be upgraded, but it will transfer fuel at a rate determined by your highest researched fuelling speed technology.

'''Underway Replenishment''' technologies allow tankers to refuel other ships in motion, instead of needing to stop. The rate will be slowed when replenishing underway (until the 100% technology is researched), but it can still be convenient in many cases.
