LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

EN 589 Compliant Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a flammable hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of propane (C3H8) and butane (C4H10), produced as a byproduct of natural gas processing and petroleum refining. Its clean combustion characteristics, high energy density, and ease of storage and transport make it one of the most versatile fuel products in global energy markets.

Intentions Institute Inc. supplies EN 589 compliant LPG in various propane-to-butane ratios tailored to seasonal and regional requirements. Higher propane content is preferred for cold-climate applications due to its lower boiling point, while butane-rich blends are suitable for tropical and subtropical markets where ambient temperatures remain above freezing.

Our LPG is sourced from refineries and gas processing plants across the Middle East, North Africa, and the CIS region. We handle supply in both pressurized vessel shipments and refrigerated LPG carrier cargoes, with typical parcel sizes ranging from 5,000 to 44,000 metric tons. Terminal-to-terminal and ship-to-ship transfer arrangements are also available for markets with limited port infrastructure.

LPG serves a broad range of end-use applications including residential and commercial heating, cooking fuel, industrial process heating, petrochemical feedstock (for olefins production), and automotive fuel (autogas). In many developing markets, LPG is being promoted as a cleaner alternative to biomass and kerosene for household cooking, supported by government subsidy programs and infrastructure investment.
