1 Formation of crude oil

2 More mud Even more mud And more mud pressure mud

3  As sea plants and animals died,  They were immediately covered by sediment in seas or swamps.  This stopped them decaying aerobically.  Further layers of sediment buried the remains deeper and deeper underground  After millions of years  Pressure and heat, these remains turned into coal, oil and natural gas.

4 Oil formation

5 A crash stop maneuver (from 'full ahead' to 'full reverse') can stop a fully loaded supertanker within approximately three kilometres, which takes about 14 minutes. The turning diameter is almost two kilometres. (These values vary according to ship size and weight, of course). Main Characteristics: Length 333 m Width 56 m Depth 32 m Weight 301,860 tonnes Speed fully loaded: 14 mph
