Oil tankers play a crucial role in the global economy by transporting large quantities of crude oil and petroleum products efficiently and cost-effectively. They are designed with advanced safety features and double-hull construction to minimize the risk of spills and environmental damage. Additionally, modern oil tankers are equipped with technology that improves navigation and reduces emissions, contributing to more sustainable maritime operations. Their operation supports energy security by ensuring a steady supply of fuel to various regions around the world.

Why oil does not dissolve in water?
Water dissolves substances because it's hydrogen bonds make it a polar molecule. Thus, the positive and negative ends of the water molecules attract the negative and positive ends (respectively) of substances, thus pulling them apart and dissolving the substance. Oil, however, is a nonpolar substance, so it is not attracted to the polarity of water.
When oil leaks into the ocean why does the oil float to the surface?
Oil and water don't "mix" together in the normal sense, and oil is less dense than sea water. That makes the oil float because the water, which is more dense, pushes it (the oil) to the surface.Archimedes' Principle- a body immersed in a fluid experiences a buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. Therefor if one were to weigh a given amount of oil and the same amount of water, water would weigh more. Three stages of buoyancy are positive(floats) negitive(sinks) neutral(doesn't float or sink).
