Publisher's Note 'Tanker Spills: Prevention by Design' evaluates a wide variety of ways to improve tank vessel resistance to penetration during an accident and assesses alternatives for reducing outflow if the ship's hull is breached.
Industry Reviews This study evaluates a wide variety of ways to improve tank vessel resistance to penetration during an accident, assesses alternatives for reducing outflow if the ship's hull is breached, and recommends ways to make a tanker more "crash-worthy". It also deals with concerns about the stability of damaged tankers, fire and explosions, salvageability, and cost implications of alternative tanker designs. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
