how to compress ore eve online

In EVE Online, compressing ore is a process that reduces the volume of raw ore into more compact forms, making it easier to transport and store. Heres how to compress ore: Requirements: A Compression Array Found in: - Player-Owned Refineries (Engineering Complexes, Refineries, or Athanors) - NPC Stations (some high-sec stations have public compression services) Ore Compression Skill (optional but reduces compression cost) Sufficient Ore (must be in the same station as the compression array) Steps to Compress Ore: Dock in a Station or Structure with a compression array. Open the Industry Window (Alt + I or via the Neocom menu). Select "Compression" Tab (under the Industry window). Choose the Ore Type you want to compress (e.g., Veldspar, Plagioclase, etc.). Input the Amount you wish to compress (must be in full batches, e.g., 100 units for Veldspar). Start Compression (may require ISK or a small fee if using a public service). Collect Compressed Ore in your item hangar. Key Notes: Batch Sizes: Each ore type has a specific batch size (e.g., 100 units for Veldspar, 10 for Arkonor). Compression Ratios: Typically reduces volume by 90% (e.g., 10,000 m³ 1,000 m³). Public vs. Private Compression: - Public Stations (NPC): Some high-sec stations offer compression for a fee. - Player Structures: Cheaper but requires access (corp-owned refineries). Cannot Compress Reprocessed Minerals Only raw ore can be compressed. Best Practices: Compress Before Hauling Saves cargo space. Use a Porpoise or Orca Their ore compression modules allow compression in space (no need to dock). Check Market Prices Sometimes compressed ore sells for more than uncompressed.
