- Bulk carrier ship:<\/strong> Transports bulk cargo of products such as minerals, food grains, coal and bulk chemicals. They can have different configurations, such as dry bulk carriers or liquid bulk carriers. This type of ship has a large cargo capacity and is crucial in the mining and agricultural industries. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Oil tanker:<\/strong> Used to transport petroleum products, such as crude oil, gasoline, diesel, and other liquid fuels. It is designed with special tanks to safely store and transport dangerous goods<\/a>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
