Out of sight, out of mind. That's the general public's reaction to
the crucial movement of oil around the world's oceans. Yet this
vital supply chain that allows the world to function is constantly
under enormous, largely unreported pressure. The uninterrupted flow
of oil is essential to globalization and increasingly so as
manufacturing and markets move Eastwards to Asia. However, it is
threatened by conflicts between nation states, pirates and global
warming. All too often the movement of oil by ocean is something
taken for granted by the majority of the world yet it is fraught
with difficulty, and could haemorrhage global growth if issues
covered in this book are not resolved or allowed to escalate. From
reporting onboard giant tankers to looking at the geopolitical
shift in oil consumption, "Oil on Water" is holistic, all
encompassing and engrossing look at the way oil is moved and
consumed mixing reportage, examples and hard-hitting facts.
