11月22日，中国石油圆满完成深圳盐田港首次LNG“船对船”（STS）同步加注作业，标志着粤港澳大湾区海上船舶LNG同步加注业务正式启动。本次加注作业时长约6小时，为一艘2.3万标准箱的集装箱船加注LNG约7,000立方米。中石油表示，与以往的加注作业相比，此次盐田港“船对船”加注作业，实现了集装箱装卸与LNG加注的同步作业，节省了至少7天的船舶靠泊周转时间，不仅大大提高了国际船舶靠港接卸与港口的高效运营能力，还将提升深圳作为国际航运中心的竞争力。

     PetroChina completed its first ship-to-ship (STS) bunkering of an LNG-powered container ship at the Shenzhen Yantian Port on Nov. 22, marking the start of offshore LNG STS bunkering business in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, South China. The bunkering operation lasted for about six hours while a total of around 7,000 cu.m. of LNG was refueled on the containership, a 23,000-twenty-foot equivalent unit ship. The STS bunkering can realize the simultaneous operations of loading/unloading and fuel bunkering compared with traditional bunkering, saving at least seven days of berthing time for ships. this will not only improve the operational capability of both international ships and Shenzhen Yantian Port, but also enhance the competitiveness of Shenzhen as an international shipping center.
