Fuel droids, or refueling droids, were a type of droids used to refuel starship in place of an organic operator, to reduce the risk of explosion while manipulating explosive liquid metal fuel.[3]
Theed Spaceport on Naboo was equipped with at least four building-sized refueling droids, which were painted yellow.[2]
