Oil supertankers are typically owned by shipping companies, which can be independent operators or subsidiaries of larger oil corporations. Many of these companies operate on a commercial basis, leasing their vessels to oil companies for transportation purposes. Additionally, some major oil companies, like ExxonMobil and Chevron, own their own supertankers as part of their logistics operations. The ownership structure can vary widely depending on the market and specific business strategies.
