A lot of the giant tankers are at risk of splitting. If you do some research you will see that they have found that beyond a certain size the risk of those tankers splitting is too great to risk building. A lot of the jumbo tankers get stressfractures the same way airplanes due from the stress of the ocean and the size of the hull.
