I'm not sure but I do know that it is more like gallons per mile. But due to the immense amount of cargo it is still an inexpensive way to transport goods.
Usually the consumption is given in barrels or tons pr day, because the consumption is very dependent on the vessels speed.

The number of stops a cargo ship will make depends on how much cargo the ship has and how many places it has to deliver cargo.

Assuming fuel consumption is consistent, if the cruise ship moves 6 inches and burns 1 gallon of fuel, it would burn 1 gallon every 6 inches. In 100 miles, there are 6,336,000 inches. Therefore, in 100 miles, the cruise ship would burn approximately 1,056,000 gallons of fuel.
The Cargo must weigh less than the ship, and although heavy, ships are less dense than water.
