BW LPG is a leading global provider of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) shipping and distribution services. As a pure‐play LPG carrier, the company operates one of the world's largest fleets of pressurized gas carriers, transporting propane, butane and petrochemical feedstocks for industrial and energy customers. Its fleet routinely serves long‐term contracts and spot voyages under time‐charter and voyage‐charter arrangements, with vessels designed for efficient, safe carriage of LPG cargoes across major trade routes.
Headquartered in Singapore and with regional offices in key markets, BW LPG traces its roots to the maritime investments of BW Group, a diversified shipping conglomerate. The company was established as a standalone entity and listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2019, marking one of the first U.S. public offerings by a specialized LPG shipping operator. This strategic separation has enabled BW LPG to focus exclusively on the gas shipping segment and capitalize on growing global energy demand.
BW LPG’s commercial operations span Asia‐Pacific, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, with customers ranging from national oil companies and major energy traders to independent refiners and petrochemical manufacturers. In addition to transporting LPG, the company offers specialized services such as floating storage and offloading solutions, ship‐to‐ship transfer operations and technical management, leveraging its in‐house expertise to optimize vessel performance and fuel efficiency.
Managed by an experienced leadership team based in Singapore, BW LPG emphasizes safety, environmental stewardship and operational reliability. The company invests in crew training, digital monitoring systems and green technologies, including dual‐fuel engines and optimized hull designs, to reduce emissions and strengthen its position as a partner of choice in the global LPG supply chain.
