Perhaps the Cosco ships have had a more recent lick of paint? Which says something about possible investment levels

Not neccessarely. The "Maersk Blue" is a unique shade of light Blue to begin with, looking like strongly weathered Blue straight out of the Paintpot. It's a protected Trademark, specially made for and only to be used by Maersk alone. (Same as the Daneman-Brown of UPS Trucks or the Postal Yellow of swiss Postbuses) When Companies like LEGO make a Maersk Model, they need Maersk's Approval and License to make the needed Elements in that Colour for a specific Number of Sets...

@@samuelbhend2521 Eerrrr, you can copyright a colour?? You're joking surely? So if I Trademark protected every colour and shade - each individual colour spans a small frequency range - you could trademark the entire colour spectrum - hire a mob of lawyers and make everyone pay. Could I trademark black and white?

@@matgeezer2094 Yes, you can Copyright your special Shades of Colours, Melodies, Logos, writing Fonts, Slogans, almost everything. I'm not joking. However, what the exact Rules are to copyright Things like this, I don't know. I'm no Lawyer, just a normal little Fart. As far as I know, it has to be a special Shade, you can't copyright Red f.ex., but the particular, special made Shade of Red known as "Ferrari Red" is protected Trademark by Ferrari... Same as "Maersk Blue", which is a specially for Maersk made Shade of Blue, but Blue itself can't be protected. As said, what the exact Rules are, you must ask Lawyers, I can't answer that.

Thanks:-)

I lived in Rotterdam many years ago and the scale of the port is awesome. The really gigantic ships are incredible, but I also find them unsettling. If a giant oil tanker fails, you've got a herculean problem. If a supergiant container ship has a problem it can be catastrophic - the blockage on the Suez canal a few years back, springs to mind. These supergiant ships are built because the shipping cost per TEU (I think it's called) is less and thus costs are lower. But if they are so large that anything that goes wrong and you've got a major disaster then really they are passing costs onto national governments and nearby communities, they pay massively if there are oil spills. For instance, the Exxon Valdez disaster - did Exxon pay all the costs incurred by governments and local communities and various businesses? I expect the list of affected groups was huge. And Exxon obviously hired the very best lawyers to fight every liability. I bet everyone had to fight like hell to get compensation. Aren't corporations passing their costs onto others? Privatise the profit, and socialise the cost, is a very sensible policy for a corporation to follow, they pretend not to of course. But large corporations have too much power - in the US, Intel got the states in a bidding war to win their investment. They have extracted incredible extra money (or tax waivers) from the states. The Federal government needs to sort that out - its anti-competitive, it's basically corruption - especially when various firms and individuals then make donations to the very same parties and people who gave them the various tax waivers and subsidies to start with. How is that not corruption?

Yes!

Thanks,:-) This ship is a very large crude carrier(VLCC) with 200000 - 320000 dwt. Supertanker are crude oil tanker with more than 250000 dwt. This Video has empty VLCC: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/f5Wdk6xtjHtntmQ.html

ULCC are not used anymore for 'regular' voyages. If any, there are used as FPSOs

This ship has 21 meters of steel hidden under the water bro.

Yes!

What is her draft? Use your brain.

Hi, thanks:-) What do you mean with the colors?

@@airliners.ships.channel Colors edited ? the colors appear much brighter than they actually are... Grtz

Chineese Government

BNN ni u

U need at least 3-6 millions dollars 💸

Not so its 'to masters orders and pilots advice' always except in the panama canal where the pilot takes navigational control but the captain is always in command of the ship. Crew cannot disembark until the vessel is cleared by customs and quarantine - that's when the yellow flag is lowered

​@@JN-om6rwCorrect!🎉

You know COSCO SHIPPING IS Chinese

Well, she's currently bound for Corpus Christi, Texas

Good-o.

Wrong video

Supertankers are the largest oil tankers. They include very large and ultra-large crude carriers (VLCCs and ULCCs ) with capacities over 250,000 DWT

@@airliners.ships.channel so what was Knock Nevis then at double the 250,000 ton rating?
