Farming and Industry.
Chemicals are big business and what one nation cannot make, another can provide via tanker shipping or railroad tankers. We need chemicals for fertilisers in farming and also in industry for various processes from plastic polymas to nylon.
Many of these chemical formula's are top secret and can be used for both commercial and military use. The Tanker ships are roughly the same sizes as bulk ore/coal carriers and cruel oil super tankers.
In the United Kingdom many travel to Milford Haven and other terminal ports, such as Runcorn near to Liverpool. Unfortunately a recent visit to Tata steel in Port Talbot I missed filming a Norwegian tanker, who did not spend very long there.

Plying the Oceans.
Bulk Carriers.
There are many kinds of boats and ships that ply the seas around the world, because this remains a very viable form of trade. Man has used the sea, lakes, rivers and even oceans from ancient times and he has built ever bigger ships.
Today the Super Tanker, container ship and bulk carriers are the biggest. Here in Swansea I see various vessels come and go from Port Talbot Tata Steel deep water dock. It is a real joy for me to film them and have them seen by the world on You Tube at 121jaykay.
These ships will remain the massive ore carriers that they are, because humans need metals, cars and vehicles to be made.
