The vessels will be adequately equipped to perform terminal-to-ship, ship-to-ship, ship-to-shore and ship-to-truck operations. The vessels will be loaded with LNG mainly from adjacent LNG terminals (Revithoussa LNG Import terminal in Greece and Vassilikos (FSRU) terminal in Cyprus), but they should be able to load LNG from any other LNG terminal with small scale LNG loading facilities.
