The 500-ton Oil Fuel Lighter was a class of oil fuel lighters built for the Royal Australian Navy between 1913 and 1916.[1]

Design

The lighters were {{convert|156|ft|m}} in length, {{convert|14|ft|m}} depth and {{convert|30|ft|m}} breadth and cost about £18,000 each to build.[2] The hull included 10 oil tanks, separated by air spaces and cofferdams, which held a capacity of 550 tons of liquid fuel oil.[2] Sleeping accommodation and a saloon were also provided in the forward portion. Two sets of diesel engines with centrifugal pumps discharged the fuel oil from the tanks.[2]
