Total cost of ownership: Gravitas Dock Barge

Commissioning a Gravitas Dock Barge starts at ₡330 million. That buys a Orbital construction barge with a 18,000 tonnes payload and a 6 AU reach.

Operating costs are kept down by the Xenon ion propellant drive, which uses roughly 8 tonnes per 100 AU. At typical fuel prices, that makes this one of the cheapest ships in its class per tonne-AU.

Staffing is lean: 3 helmsman/helmsmen and 26 total crew. Fewer people aboard means lower wages, less consumables and more room for revenue cargo.
