LPG Carrier Charter
Nigeria & West Africa
Connecting Nigerian LPG Production with West African Demand
Nigeria is sub-Saharan Africa's largest LPG producer, yet domestic penetration remains low, creating a growing intra-regional trade as coastal nations import LPG for cooking gas programmes. We charter pressurised and refrigerated gas carriers for this expanding trade.
From small pressurised gas tankers (500–5,000 m³) for coastal distribution to mid-size fully refrigerated carriers (15,000–25,000 m³) for regional trades, we source and charter the right vessel for your LPG cargo.
