Epic Gas is presenting a positive outlook for LPG seaborne trade growth in 2021, which should bode well for its finances, as the orderbook for small pressurised LPG carriers remains low.

The Singapore-headquartered company, which is majority-owned by the BW Group, said on Wednesday that trade growth volumes are forecast to rebound to 2.8%, while fleet growth is expected to come in lower at 2.3%.
