I, personally, would like less fuel to be wasted on transporting oil, but I don't want oil to be cheaper, and I don't want Big Oil to make even more money. It's a paradox, I know. Maybe they would give the saved money to charity, or sponsor environmental protection groups? Yeah, right...
EDIT: I found this on Wikipedia:
That is for a luxury liner, a freight ship would have different numbers, but how different?

It's an interesting paradox, as you said Piwoslaw. I'd be all for gas being cheaper, I and my friends are all sick of paying through the nose for it, and it hampers driving cars that are more enjoyable than a Civic. On the flip side at the present cost of gas (or higher) my Civic earns the investment cost back faster
