❗❗What is Lightening or lightering cargo? ✅In shipping, lightening, also known as lightering, is the process of transferring cargo from one ship to another, or partially unloading cargo onto a smaller ship. The purpose of lightening is to reduce the draft of a ship, allowing it to navigate in shallower waters like ports and harbors. This is usually done by transferring cargo from a larger ship to a smaller ship, called a lighter or barge, using cranes or other cargo handling equipment. ✅Lighteni
