Description | Oiling and Coaling in mid-ocean |
Details |
Bunkering at sea: oiling and coaling in mid-ocean. The new method and the old- a contrast. The top drawing show the simple and silent new technique of a war vessel taking oil fuel aboard through a hose connecting her with the oil-carrying ship. The photograph below shows the elaborate and noisy process of a war vessel receiving bags of coal from a collier.
