That's crazy.. those ships are massive and do run nearly non-stop however.. so I guess not unbelievable considering all the stuff they move. All that sh!t from China has to get here somehow.

It is important to note tho that they are referring to "pollutants" and not CO2. They are talking about such things as NOx and SOx. I would presume they are using cheaper heavy (highly sulphated) crude, not the light sweet crude that is used to make car fuels.
