Dorian LPG owns and operates 22 Very Large Gas Carriers, essentially floating pipelines that move liquefied petroleum gas across oceans for energy companies.
Revenue comes from chartering these specialized vessels, with gross margins around 63% and net margins near 55% on roughly USD 0.48B annual revenue—high-margin, contract-based shipping income.
Building a VLGC fleet requires massive capital and specialized expertise, but competitors like Avance Gas and Navigator Holdings can order identical ships, so the edge is cyclical rate exposure rather than durable differentiation.
