Sister ship The Vanguard is more impressive, can carry more than twice as much load and is currently the worlds largest of it's kind:Sadly no pic as my zoom isn't big enough so here's a random internet one of the Amythest.

On a related note, the similar (but smaller) GPO Amythest has been moored up off the Dutch coast for months now, I guess not a huge amount of work for them at the moment. There's currently 11 tankers, 9 cargo ships and 3 cruise liners anchored in a cluster there according to Vessel Finder. I guess there must be a huge number of ships sat at anchor at the moment.
Sadly no pic as my zoom isn't big enough so here's a random internet one of the Amythest.
<pssst> don't look now - but I think someone has nicked half your ship!Sadly no pic as my zoom isn't big enough so here's a random internet one of the Amythest.

Pioneering Spirit is also moored since mid March, the oil and gas industry probably putting projects on hold.
