When sailing out of Pearl early in the war refueling at Midway is a necessity. I also refuel there on the way back. later when your base is transferred there patrols off the ciast of Japan and in the Yellow Sea are much less problematic.
Also, do a search on the forum for fuel consumtion tips. For example the Gato's greatest cruising range is at a speed of 9 kts.
