Best Answer

The fuel capacity for a cruise ship all depends on the size of the ship. The big cruise lines such as Princess Cruises, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, and Disney have vessels that range from as little as 590 feet to over 1,100 feet, and they can carry anywhere from 6,000 barrels of fuel oil to over 56,000 barrels (1 barrel = 42 gallons). The Queen Mary 2 for example is 1,132 feet long and can carry up to 56,655 bbls of fuel oil. It also depends on your definition of cruise ship. While the companies mentioned above have large cruise ships there are other companies that give short local cruises. For example the Blue & Gold Fleet, which gives cruises around San Francisco Bay, has vessels which are roughly 135 feet and can carry between 93 and 167 bbls of fuel oil.

Cruise ship fuel capacity depends on many factors. These include the type of fuel the ship uses, the size and design of the ship, the duration of the cruise, and the length of each leg of the cruise before it reaches a port where fuel can be replenished.
