AD Ports Group, the leading logistics and port operator in the UAE, has successfully carried out its first ship-to-ship (STS) liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering operation at the deep-water Khalifa Port.

This makes Abu Dhabi a key hub for alternative marine fuels and sustainable shipping practices.

The operation involved the LNG bunker vessel Green Zeebrugge, which supplied LNG to the container ship MSC Thais while it was berthed at Abu Dhabi Terminals.

This STS bunkering took place as part of a similar operation, where both cargo handling and LNG transfer were carried out at the same time.

The bunkering was facilitated by Monjasa, a global marine fuels provider.

The successful bunkering shows AD Ports Group’s capability to manage complex port operations by integrating cleaner fuel solutions within its infrastructure.

It also supports the global maritime sector’s shift toward low-emission fuel alternatives.
