In a breakthrough for LNG handling technology, South Korea’s Hanwha Ocean has successfully executed the world’s first ship-to-ship (STS) transfer of liquefied natural gas between two vessels undergoing sea trials.

The pioneering operation was conducted off Geoje Island between the newly built Maran Gas Syros and Woodside Jirrubakura, owned by GasLog. Hanwha Ocean said the controlled transfer of the ultra-cold fuel was completed safely and without incident, underscoring the shipyard’s advanced capabilities in LNG systems.

“This milestone proves that our LNG technology and operational protocols are ready to support the next generation of clean energy shipping,” the company said, calling the achievement a testament to its “engineering excellence and leadership in cryogenic transfer innovation.”
