"At the start of the year it was forecasted that the market length seen in 2011 would continue in 2012. As the year unfolded, the length has been limited to one quarter due to a combination of lower-than-expected supply and stronger demand in some countries. It's another example of the unpredictability of the LPG market.
In particular LPG exports from South America and Africa are below expectations, while Southern Asian countries are maintaining strong import growth. In consequence the role of Northwest European petchems in absorbing LPG length has been less in evidence than in 2011.
The major new trends for 2013 are increasing US LPG exports and rising Chinese imports for petchems. Smooth transition or an unsettled market?" ~ Poten & Partners

Global maritime consultants Drewry said in a report that the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) exports from the Middle East to Asia have driven the steady growth of the LPG fleet worldwide. It forecasts that due to strong LPG exports, demand for vessels will remain firm.
The industry analyst said the LPG shipping market has gained steadily over the year. Drewry said that firm demand from Asia and increased exports from Middle East have kept the market for larger vessels afloat. LPG export from Middle East to the Asian market grew 8% quarter on quarter to 8.7 million tons in April-June and 7% higher than in the same period last year.
Drewry said in a statement that rising LPG supply in Middle East coupled with relatively lower prices prompted nations to store. “Almost all Asian countries seemed to be scurrying to fill up their stocks in view of lower prices, coupled with instances of loading and unloading delays at a few ports, which further held up tonnage.”
More updates on outlook of LPG shipping market & freight rates will be available at the 7th LPG Trade Summit in Istanbul on 12-13 November. Pre-Register now or contact Ms. Huiyan at huiyan@cmtsp.com.sg for further queries.

Heavy global extraction and refining of natural gas and oil is generating mass quantities of LPG for shipment. According to Oslo consultants, Lorentzen & Stemoco A/S, LPG trade will rise 3.9% this year and fleet growth by 2%. Five analysts’ estimates compiled by Bloomberg revealed that Exmar NV which operates 29 vessels will return to profit. The Middle East ranked the highest in export, while Asia is the largest buyer. Asia will use 3.4% more as shipments from the Middle East. The Middle East will also account for 29% of production growth and Asia, 90% of additional buying.
In the past decade, there has been a growing need for Exmar and BW Group Ltd.’s ships as global refinery capacity rose 11%. Steve Engelen, the manager of research and projects at Joachim Grieg & Co., said, “This market was in the doldrums for years, but now there are not many new ships and volumes are increasing. The additional volumes of LPG in the Middle East are so big they have to export, rather than consume them domestically.”
Also, JBC Energy’s findings confirm that global LPG demand will advance 1.4% to an all-time high of about 232 million tons this year.
In view of the rising supply and demand of LPG, the global LPG market, Incremental production & export growth in Black Sea, Middle East, North Africa and North Sea, as well as China & rest of Asia’s LPG demand are some of the key insightful topics that will shape the discussions at CMT’s upcoming 7th LPG Trade Summit on 12-14 November 2012 in Istanbul.
