As member of the former (c.l974) Maritime Club I feel qualified to answer your question. Most modern tankers are propelled either by Diesel or steam Turbine marine engines. Generally the single-screw set up is more common for economy of running thogh having two screws (props, to the layman) would have maneuvering and safety advantages. There are also unpowered oil barges one might ve e4xcused for calling tankers. In the heyday, or rather twilight of the so-called (Tall Ships) by the way a term that has no precise maritime use, there were a handful of Sailing Ship Oil tankers- the Falls of Clyde was one, and better known the short-lived byt historical Thomas W.Lawson, the only 7-Masted schooner ever built and all steel. The Lawson was straight-sail, but did have auxiliary engines for winches and cargo Handling(here, pumps) and oddoly for a wind-jammer had Power Steering. she therfore had an engine room and engineers on duty!-but no propulsive engines-bad design if you ask me. the Lawson lasted from l902-06 and was written off in a an accident. She was operated by the Sun Oil Company-also known as Sunoco who were not exactly of the freakish sailing tanker. She ws originally designed as a Collier and was converted to a tanker during construction. from solid to liquid fuel carriage.

FPSO is an acronym for Floating Production, Storage, Offtake (or Offload). An FPSO is typically a big ship used in the oil industry in deepwater producing oil fields. The wells are at the seabed and flow back to the FPSO. The ship is moored in place and contains the production equipment used to process the oil. Once processed, the oil is stored in the hull of the FPSO. Once there is enough oil in stored in the FPSO, a tanker will pull near the FPSO and the oil will be pumped from the FPSO to the tanker.

The power to propel a ship is dependent on a number of things besides resistance. You must consider the size of the ship, its weight, and its passenger's weight before you can determine the power required to move it.
Most likely, this is to discharge any static electricity that the tanker may have accrued during its journey. Such static can be dangerous because it may cause the petrol to ignite; therefore, the wire 'grounds' the tanker (i.e. it allows the electricity to pass harmlessly into the ground) and removes this threat.
