I disagree with merging these two articles . This is a fairly decent for small size articile at moment.
A good next step here woudl be specific informaiton on equipment and the rigs.
The replenishment oiler article has a below average rating in my opinion. It refers to some decommissioned classes of ships, lack specifics on distinction of replenishment oilers to tankers.

I haven't read the articles in their entirety, but I disagree they should be merged. Underway Replenishment covers MORE than just fuel. As a merchant mariner working for Military Sealift Command, I've sailed on many types of ships that underway replenish. Ammunition and Dry Cargo ships replenish with pallets, both by connecting, and by helicopter. the article for Underway Replenishment Oiler is a specific topic, while this article seems more broad in scope.

In summary, the opposes clearly have it. Removing the tags. Ingolfson ( talk) 05:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
It looks like these are two different subjects. The Ship to Ship article isn't very descriptive, but it seems to say that the two ships moor to one another before cargo transfer takes place. That's not what military UNREP is, or is about. Lou Sander ( talk) 00:07, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Oppose. To me, they're two different subjects and situations. Miyagawa ( talk) 14:30, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
I am totally opposed. The topic of UNREP is only known to U.S. Naval vessels and those vessels that have been trained by the U.S. Navy to accomplish it. No other Navy in the world is able to accomplish such a tremendously difficult and hazardous task. Ask the Russians. They have spent decades following the U.S. Navy trying to learn how to perform an UNREP. Bambam4274 ( talk) 22:30, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Is there such a thing as horizontal replenishment, and should it point here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.247.162.84 ( talk) 01:40, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
This section contains the sentences "The oiler was towed 600 ft (180 m) astern of Victorious using a 6.5 in (170 mm) steel rope.[clarification needed] Twenty-seven lengths of 20 ft (6.1 m) long hose were then connected between the ships."
That would make the length of hose to be 540 feet, whereas the ships were separated by 600 feet. Something does not add up here.
