Many of the shuttle tankers coming into the gulf ports do have purpose built davits for their Yokohama fenders (quite a few of the EAGLE tankers do). In a case like the ship shown, the company contracted for the lightering operation will have a work boat standing by to bring fenders to the off loading VLCC (called the "mother" vessel), then the vessel taking the cargo(the "daughter" ship) will come alongside to load.
