Some new fitness plans promise weight-loss miracles with strength training â but say aerobic exercise isn't worth the energy.
In 1959 the 114,356 dwt âUniverse Apolloâ became the first tanker to pass the 100,000-ton figure: within a decade ships five times that size were being planned. The biggest oil tankers were built in the 1970s after the 1973 oil crisis. Thus a new generation of tanker was born, the VLCCs (Very Large Crude Carriers) and the ULCCs (Ultra Large Crude Carriers). The biggest oil tanker and biggest ship ever constructed â âSeawise Giantâ was built in 1979.
The Company's assets consist of approximately 19 oil tankers, 14 drybulk carriers, 17 container vessels, two car carriers, two jack-up drilling rigs, three ultra-deepwater drilling units, six offshore supply vessels and two chemical tankers. The Company's oil tankers and chemical tankers are all double-hull vessels. Some of its customers include Frontline, Seadrill, NADL, Sinochem Shipping Co. Ltd., China National Chartering Co Ltd, Heung-A Shipping Co. Ltd., Hyundai Glovis Co. Ltd., Western Bulk A/S, Hamburg Sud Group and Hanjin Shipping.
