Description
Gazogem is refined by the Francos at the Gazogem Refinery, using gems mined by the Wannies. It is produced using the gems mined by the Wannies in the Undergas. The fuel is sold in the Otringal gas station, and delivered to the other Zeelichian islands by tankers.
Role in Twinsen's adventure
After leaving Emerald Moon, Baldino and Twinsen crashed on a small isle of Otringal. Jerome needed Gazogem to fix the spaceship, as well as to improve Twinsen's proto-pack. Twinsen thus had to go up to the Otringal gas station where he was told by a nearby salesman that no more of this fuel was available at the station, and that a tanker would later arrive from the Island of the Francos to refill the bunker, but would not do so for a while. For these reasons, Twinsen had to go to the Island of the Francos, and retrieve a gazogem can from the refinery. After bringing the can of gazogem to Jerome, the grobo was able to fix his space shuttle, and power up Twinsen's proto-pack to a super jet-pack.
Trivia
It's called gazogem because it is made of gems. The French translation would be "gaz au gemmes," hence the name.
