The four Batillus-class supertankers were the largest and longest ships ever to be laid down per original plans. They were the largest ever when measuring gross tonnage, and were second only to Seawise Giant (post its jumboisation) for deadweight tonnage and length overall. All were built by 1979, three were retired by 1986, only Prairial sailed to 2003.
