Talk:Oil tanker/to do
Appearance
- Add cargo pipeline system
- history: more on T2 tankers
history: more on Ludwig, Onasis, Stravos- freight rates
- Copyedit as necessary, especially choppy text/lists
Bring "Today's Fleet" section into line with Bulk_carrier#Today.27s_fleetConvert to {{Infobox Ship Begin}}Add Inert Gas SystemRewrite and reference Pollution section.Consider different layout for picturesFair use for Image:Evolution_of_a_Giant.jpgFloating Production Storage and Offloading under Specialized designs?Integrate info from U.N.history: origin of supertankers- explain DWT ratings of ships, and how it translates to capacity in barrels of oil
- provide information on typical charter rates for tankers (as a function of size) (cf. "freight rates" above)
- How do I obtain a schematic of a crude oil tanker?
- Redundant double engine rooms, propellers and rudders (Stena V-Max) to prevent grounding (focus is now on preventing spillage from grounded tankers, in stead of preventing them to ground)

Expand Mid-Deck Tanker and Coulombi Egg Tanker designs- Increased liability of oil companies, crews and owners, but not for yards and class
- The little attention the Atlantic Empress and ABT Summer got, although they are the largest two in history, in contrast with the Exxon Valdez, Erika and Prestige
Influence and effects of flags of convenience- Effects of reduced demands by classification societies
