REPORT DESCRIPTION
In the past, crude oil and oil products in cargo tankers were separated from seawater only by a bottom and
a side plate that is known as single hulling of ships. This design of ships was not safe for transporting black
gold and led shipping and oil & gas industry to disastrous incidents. An effective way to avoid the risk of
spilling is to enfold the oil tankers with a second internal plate which is at nearly 1.5 - 2 meters distance
from the outer plate. Due to Exxon Valdez disaster in the U.S., oil pollution act of 1990 was passed to
reduce the oil spill accidents and reduce the impact of potential future spills. According to this act, the
tankers operating in the U.S. water must follow the double hulling in vessel construction design and all
single hulling, double sides and double bottom hulling designed ships should be discarded. After the Erika
oil spill off, the coast of France, international convention for prevention of pollution from maritime
transportation, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) also followed the same double hulled ship
design. Double hulling of ships is regarded as the solutions for the problems of transportation of oil without
pollution and potential accidents at sea. Double hulled vessels provide more safety than single hulled
vessels at sea, provided maintained and operated adequately.
