Report is based on tanker study which included operating data, cost and weight estimates and technical opinions gathered from 33 major European ship operators, designers and builders, additional data from Japan, Canada and United States, published information and basic engineering data; it is concluded superiority of well designed steam turbine tanker over diesel tanker is clearly established. Abstract of paper before Norwegian Ship Tech Soc. (see also - n 6 1959 p 116-33, discussion 158-169; Mar Eng v 64 n 11 Oct 1959 p 73-9, 128)
