Gunvor is a long-term leasor of the largest refrigerated LPG import terminal in Europe, which during 2014 will be expanded by 20 percent capacity. We supply into the European market well over 500kmt of LPG per year. We have long-term contracts for U.S. LPG from new shale gas production, which we trade worldwide
LPG (or liquefied petroleum gas) is a versatile fuel commonly used in homes and businesses. LPG is considered a good fuel because it has a high calorific value gives a smokeless flame. At normal temperature and pressure – as in your living room or garden – you will meet LPG as a gas. But when it is either cooled down or put under pressure, it changes into a liquid. Exactly the type of liquid that is filled onto the cylinders you use for your BBQ in the summer.
LPG is an energy-rich fuel source with a higher calorific value per unit than other commonly used fuels, including coal, natural gas, diesel, petrol, fuel oils and biomass-derived alcohols. This means that an LPG flame burns hotter, an advantage that can translate into higher efficiency.
The LPG works to improve the burning of the diesel, it does not replace diesel completely as LPG does in a petrol-powered engine. This better burn of the diesel thanks to the presence of LPG boosts torque and power.

There are different types of bitumen available with different properties, specifications, and uses based on the requirements of the consuming industry. The specification of bitumen also shows the variation with safety, solubility, physical properties, and durability. To understand the performance of the bitumen when it is on service, the design of the physical properties of the material is highly essential. The standard testing methods are carried out to grade bitumen.
