At present about 1/3 of the world’s shipping tonnage is tanker tonnage. Tankers are especially designed to carry liquids (mainly oil products) in bulk. Their construction is entirely different from that of dry cargo ships: they are built on a cellar system by which the vessel is divided into compartments. Tankers are equipped with pipes, valves, and pumps to transfer cargo from/to the shore and from one tank to another when necessary. Speeds vary between 10 and 20 knots.

Various liquid cargoes carried today includes: Petroleum products (Oil), Chemicals, Liquified Natural Gas (LNG), Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG), Fruit Juice carriers and even wine!

1. Oil Tankers Ship carrying crude oil or refined products.

2. Chemical Tankers also sometimes called a Parcel tanker. A tanker vessel designed to carry chemicals, lube oils, vegetable & animal oils and other specialty liquids in smaller quantities on one ship.

3. LNG Tankers Cargo carried: Liquefied Natural Gas (mainly methane). Can be identified with 2 distinct type of tank construction. For shipment, gas is cooled and converted to liquid and is then pumped aboard a tanker for transit in insulated tanks. Liquefied Natural Gas, LNG, is transported at approximately –160ºC.

4. LPG Tankers Cargo carried: Liquefied Petroleum Gas, mainly butane and propane. For shipment, gas is cooled and converted to liquid and is then pumped aboard a tanker for transit in insulated tanks. Liquefied Petroleum Gas, LPG, is transported at approximately –40ºC.

5. Fruit Juice Carriers. Tanks are vertical freestanding, cylindrical in shape and located in refrigerated holds.

A Oil Tanker fleet is divided in 6 main categories, typically depending on their cargo carrying capacity.
