LPG Company Profile

We are an international LPG shipping company incorporated in the Marshall Islands on July 1, 2013 and headquartered in the United States. We are primarily focused on owning and operating very large gas carriers, or VLGCs, each with a cargo-carrying capacity of greater than 80,000 cbm. Our founding executives have managed vessels in the LPG market since 2002 and we currently own and operate seven LPG carriers, including three 82,000 cbm VLGCs, one pressurized 5,000 cbm vessel and three new fuel-efficient 84,000 cbm ECO-design VLGCs constructed by Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. ("HHI" or "Hyundai") and delivered in July 2014, September 2014 and January 2015. The vessels have been managed by us since July 1, 2014, when the function was brought in-house from our prior managers.

International seaborne LPG transportation services are generally provided by two types of operators: LPG distributors and traders and independent shipowner fleets. Traditionally the main trading route in our industry has been the transport of LPG from the Arabian Gulf to Asia. With the emergence of the United States as a major LPG export hub, the U.S. Gulf to Asia has become an important trade lane. Vessels are generally operated under time charters, bareboat charters, spot charters, or contracts of affreightment. LPG distributors and traders use their fleets not only to transport their own LPG, but also to transport LPG for third-party charterers in direct competition with independent owners and operators in the tanker charter market. We operate in markets that are highly competitive and based primarily on supply and demand of available vessels. Generally, we compete for charters based upon charter rate, customer relationships, operating expertise, professional reputation and vessel specifications (size, age and condition). We also believe that our in-house technical and commercial management allows us to provide superior customer service and reliability which enhances our relationships with our charterers. Our industry is subject to strict environmental regulation, including emissions regulations, and we believe our modern, ECO-class fleet and our high level of crew training and vessel maintenance make us a preferred provider of VLGC tonnage.
