But What Are Oil Tankers?
Oil tankers (Shuttle Tankers in English) have the sole purpose of transporting liquids, most of which are destined for the oil and gas industry, as well as chemical products and production inputs. Their carrying capacity varies greatly from unit to unit, but they generally start at around 100 tons and can reach hundreds of thousands, depending on the type of service and transport for which they are intended.
Curiosity
The largest oil tanker ever built by man was the gigantic Knock Nevis, constructed in Japan. Its size was so enormous (about 458.4 meters) that it was prohibited from docking at any port on the planet. The way they found to unload the oil contained in it to the refineries was to hire smaller ships to do so. Its main route was to transport oil from the Persian Gulf to the United States, and to walk from one end to the other on the ship, workers had to ride a bicycle. It was dismantled in 2010. Curious, isn’t it?
