In the absence of ammonia bunkering infrastructure, STS transfers offer the closest proxy to bunkering operations when it replicates the essential steps involved. With this objective in mind, the trial was conducted with a transfer to simulate bunkering at the Port of Dampier in the Pilbara region of Australia, an ammonia production region. It is also expected to be one of the ammonia bunkering hubs in near future, leveraging the port's experience with ammonia export. During this trial, two STS transfers of 4,000 cubic meters of Ammonia took place between MOL's LPG/Ammonia carrier "Green Pioneer" and the "Navigator Global" owned by Navigator Gas.
