{{Ship Data
At least one '''refinery ship''' (of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Tauron|Tauranian]] registry) escaped the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] with [[the Fleet]]. Refinery ships process raw minerals and metals gathered by a [[Mining Ship]]. Unlike a Mining Ship, a Refinery Ship has large processing and storage facilities, and presumably can serve as a fueling vessel.

Refinery ships are vessels used for refining [[tylium (RDM)|tylium]] that have been used in the colonies since at least as far back as the [[First Cylon War]]. During the war, they presumably had the role of replenishing the fuel reserves of [[Colonial Fleet]] ships {{TRS|Blood and Chrome}}.
A Refinery Ship was used to process the immense reserves of [[tyllium]] mined from an asteroid [[Battle for the Tylium Asteroid|liberated]] from a [[Cylon]] base ([[The Hand of God]]).  


Over forty years later the class is used for civilian purposes. At least two of these ships, ''[[Daru Mozu]]'' and ''[[Hitei Kan]]'', are able to escape with ''[[Galactica (TRS)|Galactica]]'' following the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] {{TRS|Miniseries}}. During the [[The Fleet (TRS)|refugee fleet's]] ongoing escape from [[Cylon (TRS)|Cylon]] forces, these ships refine tylium mined by the vessels ''[[Monarch]]'' and ''[[Majahual]]''.
The Tauranian Refinery Ship refused to continue refining tylium in protest of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s imprisonment and Col. Tigh's subsequent declaration of martial law ("[[Resistance]]").


==Notes==


{{Ships}}
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]]'s wording when he reports on the defection of the "Tauranian refining vessel" would seem to indicate that the fleet has at least one additional refinery ship, of non-Tauranian registry ([[Resistance]]).
