At the height of the Arab oil embargo the price of oil was over $50 per barrel. The Alamo, an American-owned tanker with 500,000 tons of Iranian crude went aground off the Normandy Coast en route to Rotterdam.

The English economy was on the ropes, and the Brits courted the deep pockets of the oil-rich Arabs. The House of Lloyds struggled to keep up a stiff financial upper lip, as it rotted from greed.
