Despite tariff escalations and short-term market disruptions, the market fundamentals are solid. US LPG production has remained unabated and export levels are steady compared to previous months as US LPG volumes found new destinations outside China
| LPG exports US / Middle East |
• US terminal operators moving forward with expansion projects, which will enable further growth in US LPG exports • Roll-back of OPEC+ production cuts likely to raise Middle East LPG exports. Projects in UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia will also add additional LPG volumes in coming years |
|---|---|
| Trading inefficiencies |
• LPG is supply-driven and excess production is priced-to-clear in the international market • Increased distances can be expected as traders reshuffle their LPG sourcing to adapt to new tariff conditions |
| Panama v. Cape routing |
• The Panama Canal is operating its new locks at or near full capacity. Increased volatility in auction prices could lead to further trading disruptions and there are indications of more vessels sailing via Cape of Good Hope |
| VLGC global fleet |
• VLGC orderbook of 109 ships, with 2027 seeing the highest delivery pace • 69 VLGCs are scheduled for dry docking balance of this year, absorbing capacity from the total fleet of ~406 VLGCs • Increased US port charges targeting Chinese operated vessels |
| TC and FFA coverage |
• The Houston-Chiba FFA market for the rest of 2025 is currently reflecting earnings of ~US\$ 49,000/day, although with a bid/ask spread and limited liquidity |
