RAWR corps split the monthly fuel bills. I used to buy Shiva's fuel every month (last time I did it was around 2-3 months ago). Even when hydrogen isotopes were priced crazy high, we never spent more than 6.5 bn a month for all our towers...Tribute and low-sec. We have not increased our number of towers substantially in quite some time.
Approximately how many towers are you covering with 6.5 billion?

450
Well he said 6.5B was his corp's share. I don't want to assume that every corp has an equal share.

These are Shiva numbers.
Scattered around Branch, Venal, Lonetrek and Tribute, we have about 111 towers of all sizes...about half of which are offline placeholders. I got confirmation that our monthly fuel bill is about 5b. As I said...I'm more than willing to assume a conservative 8b to prove a point.
Thank you.
From my experience, 10 larges runs around 1.5B for 4 weeks of fuel, meaning 5B would cover around 33 large online towers and 8B would cover about 53 large online towers. Again, those are estimates for large online towers, smaller or offlined towers would obviously require less ISK, and ice could have been mined as well to reduce costs.
Either way, assuming all "450" towers were large and online, which would indeed be insane, we're talking about 67.5B in fuel per month. Even that insane amount could be farmed out of legitimate moon mining and/or reactions.
