STS and bunkering,

A Ship-to-ship operation is an operation where crude oil/petroleum products/liquefied gases are transshipped between seagoing ships moored alongside each other. Such operation may take place in port, anchor or underway following the latest ICS/OCIMF Ship-to-ship Transfer Guides with the strictest adherence to safety regulations. The overall safety of any STS operation is reliant upon training, experience, correct equipment and good planning.
