Ltd.In service:     2004The Knock Nevis is a massive ship, last used as a floating storage and offloading unit (FSO). She was previously a supertanker and was the longest ship ever built, as well as the greatest deadweight tonnage ever recorded.When plying the sea, the vessel had a fully laden draft of 24.6 m (81 ft), rendering it unable to navigate the English Channel, the Suez Canal or the Panama Canal when its load was up to capacity. As a tanker she was known as the Seawise Giant, Happy Giant, and Jahre Viking.In December 2009, the vessel was sold to Indian breakers and renamed Mont for her final journey. After clearing Indian customs, she was intentionally beached in India for ship breaking. She was photographed beached for scrapping at Alang, India on 4 January 2010<img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/6gjz11.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i46.tinypic.com/29p29f9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i50.tinypic.com/242ivt4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/1zvzv9l.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/2ep4yn8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.knock-nevis.com/pictures/Knock_nevis_full.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.knock-nevis.com/pictures/Knock_Nevis_tanker.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 2.Batillus class supertankers Name:     Batillus class Operators:     Flag of France.svg Société Maritime Shell France In service:     1976 to 2003 In commission:     1976 to 1979 The biggest ships by gross tonnage ever constructed were four Batillus-class  supertankers built in France at the end of the 1970s, having 555,000 metric tons deadweight (DWT) and a 414-meter length. Built in the Louis Joubert Lock, they were launched from the shipyard Chantiers de l'Atlantique at Saint Nazaire. The only other ship considered by many as larger was the Knock Nevis (ex Jahre Viking, Happy Giant and Seawise Giant) of 1981, which was originally designed with a smaller tonnage than the Batillus class, but had its length and tonnage increased during construction. If gross tonnage is considered, the Batillus and Bellamya each had a gross tonnage of 275,276 tons. This is the greatest in history, including the Knock Nevis (260,581 gross tons when in service as an oil tanker). The class's depth of nearly 36 meters and full load draft of 28.5 meters are records for tankers. Ships of the Batillus class included:     * Batillus, built in 1976, scrapped in 1985.     * Bellamya, built in 1976, scrapped in 1986.     * Pierre Guillaumat, built in 1977, renamed Sea Brilliance, scrapped in 1983.     * Prairial, built in 1979, renamed Hellas Fos, renamed Sea Giant, scrapped in 2003 <img src="http://i46.tinypic.com/i74od2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/2i7bimo.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i46.tinypic.com/34xj5no.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee24/ULCC-2/Batillus-13-1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 3.
