世界最大的船 Seawise Giant（海上巨人號）由日本神奈川縣橫須賀的住友重機械工業追濱造船廠建造。1979 年希臘船東無力支付，這艘未命名、僅以船體編號 1016 識別的船，成為漫長仲裁程序的標的。最終在和解後，這艘油輪賣給了中國的航運大亨董浩雲（C.Y. Tung）。為了成為有史以來航行過的最大船隻，這艘船經過整修，加長了數公尺，並增加了 156,000 公噸的載貨量。董氏給它取名為 Seawise Giant。
1988 年 5 月 14 日，兩伊戰爭期間，Seawise Giant 在伊朗拉拉克島外下錨、載著伊朗原油時，遭伊拉克空軍攻擊而受損沉沒。船上起火並失控燃燒，沉入近岸淺水。該船被宣告全損並註銷。1989 年兩伊戰爭結束後，Norman International 買下殘骸並修復，修復後改名 Happy Giant。同年，Jørgen Jahre 以 3,900 萬美元買下這艘油輪，改名為 Jahre Viking。1991 至 2004 年由 Loki Stream 持有，懸掛挪威國旗。
2004 年 Jahre Viking 賣給 First Olsen Tankers，他們把船改名為 Knock Nevis，並改裝為永久繫泊在波斯灣卡達 Al Shaheen 油田的儲油船。
2009 年，新船東 Amber Development 把 Knock Nevis 改名 Mont 並改掛獅子山國旗，作最後一次航行前往印度，由 Priya Blue Industries 拆解。
這艘船重 36 噸的錨被保存下來，2010 年捐贈給香港海事博物館。
Seawise Giant the biggest ship in the world, was built in Yokosuka, Kanagawa, Japan by Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. at their Oppama shipyard. The Greek owner was not able to pay in 1979 and the unnamed ship, identified only by its hull number 1016, stayed a subject to a long arbitration process. Finally, after a settlement the tanker was sold to C.Y. Tung, Chinese shipping kingpin. The ship was refitted, lengthen by several metres and 156,000 metric tons of cargo capacity added, in order to be the biggest ship ever to sail. The name, given by Tung, was Seawise Giant.
Seawise Giant was damaged and sunk on 14 May 1988 during the Iran–Iraq War by an Iraqi Air Force attack while anchored off Larak Island, Iran and carrying Iranian crude oil. Fires ignited aboard the ship and blazed out of control, and it sank in the shallow waters off the coast. The ship was declared a total loss and was written off. In 1989, after the Iran–Iraq war ended, Norman International bought the shipwreck and repaired it. The ship was renamed Happy Giant after the repairs. In the same year Jørgen Jahre bought the tanker for US$39 million and renamed her as Jahre Viking. From 1991 to 2004, it was owned by Loki Stream and flew the flag of Norway.
In 2004 Jahre Viking was sold to First Olsen Tankers. They renamed the ship to the Knock Nevis and converted into a permanently moored storage tanker in the Qatar Al Shaheen Oil Field in the Persian Gulf.
In 2009 Knock Nevis was renamed Mont, and reflagged to Sierra Leone by new owners Amber Development for a final voyage to India where it was scrapped by Priya Blue Industries.
The ship's 36 tonne anchor was saved and donated to the Hong Kong Maritime Museum in 2010.
