Synopsis
The uninterrupted flow of oil is essential to globalisation and increasingly so as manufacturing and markets move Eastwards to Asia. All too often the movement of oil by ocean is something taken for granted, yet it is fraught with difficulty. This book looks at the way oil is moved and consumed mixing reportage, examples and hard-hitting facts.
