Oil tankers typically move at speeds of about 12 to 16 knots (approximately 14 to 18 miles per hour or 22 to 30 kilometers per hour). Their speed can vary based on factors such as the type of tanker, weather conditions, and navigational requirements. Larger tankers may operate at the lower end of this range to optimize fuel efficiency and ensure safety during transit.
