For him, the ship filled with oil means pride and status. Through questions similar to yours, we can see that you are referring to "Ile" written by Eugene O'Neill.

By reading this text, we can see that:

Captain Keeney, his wife, and some sailors travel on a ship to find whales from which they can extract the ile, which is a type of oil of great economic value.

However, the ship ends up trapped in a sea covered with ice, which leaves everyone very discouraged and very likely to abandon the search for the ile.

However, Captain Keeney does not agree with this dismay, nor with his wife's attempts to abandon the search for the whales.

He shows that returning with the ship full of ile (oil) is synonymous with honor for him and is what maintains his social status, as he always returns home with the ship full of oil.
