LPG carrier owner BW Epic Kosan (BWEK) has shrunk its fleet as it eyes better profit beyond the summer

The BW Group-owned, Oslo-listed company said four chartered ships left the fleet in the second quarter, reducing its total to 72 units.

The move was made “in line with our strategy to focus on larger and younger tonnage, with the benefit of stronger markets for such assets,” said chief executive Charles Maltby.
