Modern Trade Route

Steel tankers transport oil across the world's oceans.

Promotional 1955 16 mins

Overview

Oil and steel depend on each other "from beginning to end" as the global necessity for oil relies on mammoth tankers made from steel to transport the commodity across the oceans. This film boasts three cinematographers and the visual result is splendid, as stately vessels glide past Gibraltar and other magnificent backdrops.
