Marine transfer operations

Marine Transfer Operations (MTO) are conducted at ports worldwide to move liquid cargoes, including petroleum products, between tanker ships, barges, and marine terminals. Once a vessel is securely moored, a transfer connection (either a rigid loading arm or a flexible hose) is established between the shore’s valve header and the vessel’s manifold.
