Oil Tanker Lightering
Lightering is a process involving
ship-to-ship transfer of oil cargo. A supertanker is too large
to enter the port so it offloads a portion of crude oil to a
smaller service vessel which delivers the fuel to port.

|
Oil Tanker Lightering
Lightering locations are dictated
primarily by water depth and traffic. In the Gulf of Mexico,
this process takes place 20-60 miles from land. The massive size
of the mother ship is exagerated in this low angle photo of the
ships.

Crude Oil Lightering
The two vessels are moored
together with lines while using large rubber bumpers called fenders
between them to prevent damage. Crude oil cargo is discharged
through reinforced rubber hoses connecting the oil tankers.
