The environmental problems of transporting crude oil across the sea is that if it were to be spilt some how then it would be in the sea for a very long time ( 1-2 years) this will affect the creatures of the water for exmple the fishes

In fact spills from tankers have been a regular occurrence and the effects can last for decades. In the case of the Exxon Valdez spill into Prince William Sound in Alaska, for example, there is still residue present and it is still having negative effects on the environment.
