Tankers.
ships which carry tanks full of petrol and tanks which leak
The first ships to carry mineral oil (as opposed to whale oil) were not designed particularly for oil - the oil would be carried in jars or barrels. Ludvig Nobel (brother of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite and founder of the Nobel prize) is probably the key pioneer of designing ships specifically to carry oil. He was Swedish.
Pipelines, trains, trucks, pretty much everything that can carry oil. They use ships too.
