This will please shareholders ...
On the other hand, there are a few "incidents" that the tankers don't brag about:

As long as there is research for oil there will be discoveries, no matter the environmental cost, the exit of oil is not at all up to date.

Uh, is that a leak?
Two barrels continue to leak daily from the Gannet deposit
Far from me the idea of defending those who leave oil in the sea, but I am afraid that such small quantities of leaks are the daily life of a platform / an oil tanker / an oil terminal , the amount of "normal" leakage, the background noise ...
So for oil tankers, there is not even an incident ... it's just normal ...
How much does a tank degassing reject?
In Mexico, how new was it? Around 50 a day (at least)?

That is exactly the problem, the "collateral damage" caused by oil exploitation has become "normal" (and indeed they are because it is a systemic problem, apart from each type of oil / gas exploitation). coal / uranium, has consequences ...).
The problem is that by continuing in this way, given the number of deposits and the growing dangers that oil tankers are taking to search for black gold, we risk destroying ocean life slowly (head on: black tide, and indirectly through ocean acidification).
