| description | Not at least since the disaster of the Titanic, the public realised that ships are not unsinkable. Of course, for centuries ships have been a dangerous place to work on. However, it was not only pine for adventure that motivated people to sign on ships, but rather the much better wages. But the threat caused by ships changed in the last century. In the time of wooden or steal built sailing ships, the only fear was the loss of life. Even though this is a serious threat until today, the cargo of ships and the source of their actuation caused new dangers. Since the invention of the diesel engine, ships are carrying bunker on their voyages. Since 18861, tankers were used to transport huge loads of oil across the oceans. This form of actuation and also cargo created new dangers for the environment. The tankers began to grow quite quickly. In the 1960's2 , the world realised, that not only human lives are in danger on sea, but also the environment. |
