US-listed StealthGas is ready to move for the right LPG carriers in a niche market with few sales candidates.
Chief executive Harry Vafias told a conference call with analysts: “With the way the market is and with the way that LPG is such a small business with very few players, basically, we don’t have a choice.
“If we find a good quality vessel, it doesn’t really matter if it’s second [hand] and or [a] newbuilding, and it’s valued properly, we’re going to buy it,” he added.
