Japan’s biggest LPG distributor and trader, Astomos Energy, has chosen Maersk Tankers as voyage manager for an initial five very large gas carriers (VLGCs).

The Maersk Tankers service includes day-to-day vessel operations, fuel optimisation, and claims handling.

It covers full post-fixture support from the time the vessel is fixed for a voyage, through its successful execution, to the closure of the voyage books.

We are looking forward to this new partnership with Astomos Energy and are pleased that our knowledge and experience of commercial tanker operations can add value to owners across all vessel types and segments,” says Aditya Trehan, head of operations at Maersk Tankers.

Maersk Tankers launched voyage management as a standalone service in April 2023 and will handle 12 gas carriers for two owners after this deal. The company stated that it was looking to sign further partnerships with shipowners.
