Condi Rice has an oil supertanker named after her. Why?

I recently learned that there is an oil supertanker named after Condoleezza Rice, and I'm curious about the reason behind this. I don't recall her having any experience working on an oil rig, but I could be mistaken. Did she have any involvement in the oil industry that would explain this honor?

Condoleezza Rice was a Chevron Director from 1991 until January 15, 2001 when she was transferred by President George Bush Jr. to National Security Adviser. Previously she was Senior Director, Soviet Affairs, National Security Council, and Special Assistant to President George Bush Sr. from 1989 to 1991. Chevron quietly renamed the tanker to “Altair Voyager” before President George Bush appointed Ms. Rice as National Security Advisor.

That name has a nice ring to it. if i had a fleet of battlehips i might name one the condalezza. its a good name for something with lots of cannons on board. much better than “dudley” or “eh! steve”

because she is sleeping with the enemy(oil giants) how the hell else do you think they can make billions in profit month after month and not be charged with price gouging.Bush-Cheney-the whole lot of them are in bed with the oil assholes.
