Empty oil tankers typically travel at speeds between 12 to 15 knots (about 14 to 17 mph or 22 to 28 km/h). Their speed can vary based on factors like vessel size, design, and sea conditions. While they may be faster when empty, operational efficiency and fuel consumption often dictate their cruising speed.
