}What is LPG Carrier Tracking?
LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) carriers, also known as gas tankers, are specialized vessels designed to transport propane, butane, and other petroleum gases in liquid form, either under pressure or refrigerated. The global fleet consists of over 1,500 of these high-value ships, making them a critical, trackable component of the global energy trade.
Effective LPG carrier tracking combines real-time AIS data with predictive ETAs and historical port call analytics to provide a true picture of market movements. This is the intelligence that allows traders and charterers to anticipate shifts in supply and demand, optimize vessel timing, and secure a competitive advantage in the volatile energy market.

Frequently Asked Questions on LPG Carrier Tracking
How does your data accuracy compare to competitors like Kepler?
Our clients consistently report higher accuracy, particularly in our predictive ETAs and port congestion forecasts. We achieve this by leveraging a wider range of data sources and more advanced machine learning models, specifically tuned for the complexities of LPG transport.
Can we track specific competitor vessels?
Yes. Our platform tracks the entire global fleet of over 1,500 LPG carriers. We can provide you with a full list of IMO numbers, allowing your team to monitor any vessel of interest—whether it's part of your fleet or a competitor's.
How is the data delivered?
We offer flexible delivery options to suit your workflow. You can integrate our full dataset into your own systems via our robust, well-documented API, or you can access the same intelligence through our intuitive, ready-to-use web platform.
What is AIS data and why is it important for LPG tracking?
AIS (Automatic Identification System) is a satellite-based transponder system that broadcasts a vessel's identity, position, course, and speed. For LPG carrier tracking, AIS data is critical as it provides the real-time location foundation. We enrich this raw data with other sources to predict ETAs and analyze fleet movements with high accuracy.
How does weather impact LPG carrier tracking and ETAs?
Severe weather can significantly impact an LPG carrier's route and speed, causing delays. Our predictive ETA models incorporate real-time and forecasted weather data, allowing us to adjust arrival predictions more accurately than standard carrier ETAs, giving you a clearer picture of potential weather-related disruptions.
Who are the largest operators of LPG carriers?
The global LPG fleet is operated by a mix of state-owned entities and private shipping companies. Some of the largest and most prominent operators include BW LPG, Avance Gas, Dorian LPG, and Petredec. Our platform allows you to monitor vessels from all major operators.
What are the primary global LPG trade routes?
The main LPG trade routes connect major production regions with key consumption markets. Major routes include the Middle East (e.g., Ras Tanura) to Asia (Japan, South Korea, China) and the United States (e.g., Houston, Marcus Hook) to both Asia and Europe. Our platform provides deep visibility into vessel traffic on all these critical arteries.
