Singapore Cruise Centre (SCC) operates a cruise and ferry terminal at the HarbourFront Ferry Terminal, a departure point in southern Singapore which connects the mainland to nearby islands, including Batam, Desaru and St. John's Island.

Mitsui O.S.K Lines-owned bunker vessel, Brassavola, delivered the stem to the Silversea-operated cruise ship, Silver Nova.

This was the “first” LNG bunkering for a passenger cruise ship in Singapore, Jacqueline Tan, chief executive of SCC said. “This successful operation will pave the way for other LNG-powered cruise vessels to bunker at our HarbourFront Terminal,” she added.
