Using the full length of the slipway, and a bit more, work is progressing on a supertanker at Swan Hunters yard. This would be about the time ESSO NORTHUMBRIA was constructed but I can't say for sure if this is her.

I see they have the hangman's noose ready for the Health & Safety Inspector.

Looks like two BP tankers down the river.
