What is called a large ship?
The biggest ships in history were manufactured in France and called supertankers.
How many supertankers are there in the world?
As of 2023, there are approximately 600 supertankers operating globally. Supertankers, typically defined as vessels capable of carrying over 250,000 deadweight tons, play a crucial role in the transportation of crude oil and other large quantities of liquid cargo. The exact number can fluctuate due to factors such as new ship construction, retirements, and market demand. For the most current data, industry reports and shipping registries are good sources to consult.

Do supertankers have propellers?
Yes they do - it's just that you can't see them unless the ship is in 'dry dock. They're powered by HUGE engines.
Is there any data about why do rocks sink and supertankers float?
Yes, the data dates back to the Greek mathematician, Archimedes. He discovered that when the mass of an object placed on the water is less than the mass of the water it displaces that object will float. Supertankers cover much area with their mass (thus displacing much water), while rocks generally (with the exception, for example, of pumice) do not.
How many oil supertankers are there?
As of recent estimates, there are approximately 600 to 700 oil supertankers in operation worldwide. These vessels are typically classified as Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) and Ultra Large Crude Carriers (ULCCs), which are designed to transport large quantities of crude oil. The exact number can fluctuate based on market conditions, new builds, and decommissioned ships.
