Trader Vitol is reportedly re-letting three handysize LPG carriers that it has on charter from StealthGas of Greece.
The vessels are the semi-refrigerated 22,000-cbm Eco Frost (built 2017), Eco Arctic and Eco Ice (both built 2018) which have been fixed out for a year.
Two of the ships have been chartered by Bayegan and the third by Indelpro of Mexico.
The rate is understood to be between $520,000 and $550,000 per month and covers the rest of the charter from StealthGas.
Vitol is believed to be making a small profit on the re-let.
In the same segment PDVSA is in the market to charter LPG tonnage.
