The amount of oil a ship uses varies widely based on its size, type, speed, and cargo. Large container ships can consume around 150 to 300 tons of fuel per day, while smaller vessels may use significantly less. On average, a typical cargo ship might burn about 60 gallons of fuel per mile traveled, but this can fluctuate based on operational conditions and efficiency measures. Overall, fuel consumption is a critical aspect of maritime operations, influencing both costs and environmental impact.
they did it by ship and they did not use their feet
your ship is average size i suppose, then it depends on how much oil you have.
The crew on the whaling ship had all the oil they needed for their lamps, while the oil was scarce on a merchant ship.
500,000,000 barrles of unleaded oil!
They are used for measuring the depth of ullage space in an oil tank.

All purifiers on a ship function to clean the oil being used by the ship. There are three main types of purifies, heavy oil, diesel oil, and lubricating oil.

Use so much what? Oil?
How much fork oil do you use on a Aprilia SR50LC-`96?(ivg@mail.bg)
If the ship has a steam engine (very rare nowadays) it would likely use Bunker C. If it is a motor vessel (diesel engine), it would use either IFO (intermediate fuel oil) and/or MDO (marine diesel oil).
It depends on the type of engines that the ship has, but most large cargo and container ships use heavy fuel oil called bunker fuel. In some cruise ships, they burn bunker fuel to spin electric generators that produce electricity for motors. Smaller vessels use various types of Diesel.
