The Port of Baltimore does not even have an oil handling facility, never mind the fact it could not admit a VLCC even if it had cause to. Even ports on the US Gulf Coast do not generally have the capability to dock VLCCs. https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=36232 If Baltimore had been anticipating VLCC traffic in the 70s, then presumably the bridge would have been built accordingly and this incident would not have led to a collapse. |
