oiler
Petroleum transport vessel
An oiler is a person or device that applies oil, particularly to machinery to keep it lubricated and running smoothly.
In maritime contexts, an oiler is a ship designed to carry and transfer fuel oil to other vessels, or a crew member responsible for lubricating a ship's engines.
The term also refers informally to oil workers or to clothing designed for wet weather, such as an oilskin jacket.
The oiler kept the factory equipment running without a hitch.
