Supertanker class
TI-class supertanker
The TI class of supertankers comprises the ships TI Africa, TI Asia, TI Europe, and TI Oceania (names as of July 2004). The prefix "TI" refers to Tankers International, the ultra-large crude carrier (ULCC) pool operator. The class was the first group of ULCCs constructed in 25 years. By displacement, deadweight tonnage (DWT), and gross tonnage (a measure of internal volume rather than mass), the TI class ships are exceeded only by the crane vessel Pioneering Spirit. In comparison, the Triple E-class container ships are longer overall and have greater total cargo volume, including container capacity above deck. The previous largest ship by length and displacement, the supertanker Seawise Giant, was dismantled in 2010.
