Shipping is very relevent as a means of cargo transport. It is more cost effective to move a product, or multiple products, a great distance in bulk than in small shipments. Anchor handling tugs are job specific vessels that move anchors around dredges, or tension leg platform oil rigs. Crew Boats are also job specific working wherever crew transport is needed, usually oil rigs and dredges. Crew Boats can carry a number of personell, but the bigger vessels can also carry supplies such as water, food, drilling mud, and fuel. Air transport such as helicopters would have a hard time carrying some of these items in the amount needed, to be cost effective.
