Alliance between Eletson Gas and Evergas

Eletson Gas of Greece and Evergas of Denmark, both transporters of liquefied petroleum gas, are set to form an alliance that will trade the companies’ semi-ref/ethylene capable vessels.

Starting today, the new venture is called the E3 Pool and will operate the 15-strong fleet of gas carriers. 4 new Eletson Gas ships are expected to join the service in the coming 12 months.

“A larger fleet will provide more flexibility and more options for charterers, reduce voyage related expenses through optimization of voyages and thereby reduce greenhouse gas emissions as a direct consequence of using less fuel for cargo movements,” Evergas said.

Eletson Gas currently uses a total of 12 vessels, while Evergas deploys 23.
