Gas Tanker Management Services
Fleet Management provides specialised gas tanker management services, focusing on the safe transport of liquefied gases. Our expertise, backed by a modern fleet, allows us to handle sensitive cargoes with a commitment to the highest safety standards and operational excellence.
Comprehensive Gas Tanker Management Solutions
Gas transportation requires highly specialised expertise due to the unique challenges posed by liquefied gas cargoes, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Our gas tanker management solutions are designed with a focus on safety, operational efficiency, and reliable delivery. We currently manage six LPG tankers and 11 LNG vessels, each equipped with advanced technology and fuel-efficient propulsion systems. This positions us well to meet the complex gas cargo transportation needs of our clients.
Expert Management for Gas Tankers
The transportation of liquefied gases demands expert management and specialised equipment. Our gas tankers are fitted with state-of-the-art safety systems and electronic equipment, ensuring secure and efficient operations. Our LNG vessels include a steam-powered tanker with GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz) membrane tanks and a Dual-Fuel Diesel Electric (DFDE) vessel with a GTT membrane tank, handling capacities of 74,487 and 154,982 cubic meters respectively. We work closely with some of the industry’s most reputable clients and charterers, including Astomos, Equinor, and Shell, to ensure that each shipment meets rigorous safety and operational standards, delivering reliable solutions in the gas shipping industry.
Specialised Fleet Capabilities
Our gas tanker fleet is designed to transport liquefied gases like LNG and LPG safely and efficiently. Among the LPG vessels, we manage three Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGCs) with capacities of 84,000 cubic meters, and three fully pressurised gas carriers with 5,000 cubic meters. With our vessels equipped to handle these sensitive cargoes, we provide the precision, reliability, and flexibility that our clients require to meet the evolving demands of global energy markets.
Safety and Compliance Assurance
Safety is paramount in gas tanker operations. Our fleet complies with the most stringent international safety regulations, and our crews undergo continuous training to meet the highest industry standards. Training programmes include GTT certification for marine and technical superintendents, and specialised dual-fuel vessel training for both crew and technical staff. Regular inspections, audits, and adherence to global guidelines ensure that our fleet remains at the forefront of safety and compliance, consistently meeting or exceeding expectations.
Continuous Improvement and Training
We are committed to continuous improvement in gas tanker operations. Our training programmes focus on the safe handling of liquefied gases, providing our crew with the necessary skills and knowledge to operate effectively in dynamic maritime environments. In partnership with some of the world’s largest oil and gas majors, including those from Norway, China, UAE, and Japan, we ensure our teams are prepared for the unique challenges of transporting gas cargoes. This ensures we stand ever ready to meet the challenges of transporting gas cargoes safely, efficiently, and reliably.
