For that ship it works out to 38 200l drums of heavy fuel every hour.
The figures are scary!
And the volume of exhaust gases coming out the funnel makes a joke out of the controls we put on our car (and bike) emissions!
But there's still no better way to move 200,000 tonnes of cargo around the world, so I guess they're here to stay (keeps me in a job, too!).
