Whaling factory ships wasn't used until the early 1900s. With the introduction it revolutionized how much whales a country can kill in a signle season. Factory Ships enabled more whales to be killed in a season and the bigger the ship, the less time it was needed to stop and transport it to other ships where the would carry the meat back to their country. Factory ships also enabled countries who did Whaling to travel to Antarctica when Whale population along coastal regions began to decline.
Only modern factory ship used is by the Japanese Whaling fleet called the Nisshin Maru. It was developed nearly after WW2, so that Japan could provide food for it's people the oil for the US.
Example of this is that in the 1930s, over 50,000 Whales could of been killed in a single season (which lasted a few months from december to march) but in the 1700s and 1800s, the average quota would of been nearly have of that so around 30,000 whales per year overall. However, these seasons tend to last longer than it does nowadays.
Note: This is based on the numbers of barrels of whale oil was obtained during the 1700s and 1800s.
