What's Going on With Shipping
March 12, 2022
On this episode of What's Going on With Shipping, Sal Mercogliano - former merchant mariner and maritime historian at Campbell University - discusses five options that the Department of Defense should examine with the decision to close the 250 million gallon fuel farm at Red Hill in Hawaii due to environmental contamination of the aquifers. These include the chartering of an American supertanker, a reduced operating status agreement with major US tanker firms, keeping outgoing, Henry J. Kaiser-class oilers, modifying existing Lewis B Puller-class Expeditionary Support Bases, and Montford Point-class Expeditionary Support Docks, and a new build-and-charter program.
