This book provides a comprehensive summary of the industry that is suitable for those either inside or outside of the oil and shipping business.
The author’s extensive experience of the industry is fully reflected in this interesting and wide-ranging title that includes over 100 diagrams and photographs.
Tankers have always been the vital link in the distribution of oil, but today with the advent of production using FPSO’s, their role has become more important still.
Whilst this profusely illustrated book by Captain Valvis does not deal specifically with shuttle tankers, it does provide an invaluable general background to these complex vessels, and their operation.
This book will therefore be extremely useful to anyone whose day-to-day work brings them close to tanker operations, even if superficially. There can be no substitute for a broad understanding of every facet of oil production and transportation and as far as tankers are concerned this is the only reference you are likely to need.
