Context: 'os Demandados iniciaram a operação de reabastecimento de combustível do [ship name], pelo navio "[ship name]", com cerca de 500 toneladas de gasóleo marinho (MDO), através da operação, vulgarmente designada por "braço dado"'

I'm not sure of the translation for 'Braço Dado' in this context. I found some references online, but they mostly refer to large naval vessels, aircraft carriers and suchlike, whereas the text here treats of a smaller commercial vessel. Any help appreciated.
