“will” and similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions. The forward-looking statements in this
presentation are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records
and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when
made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are
difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish
these expectations, beliefs or projections.

Dorian LPG is a Market Leader in LPG Transport LPG Transport Market is Recovering from Cyclical Lows
Global NGL Production & Exports Continue to
Increase
• U.S. seaborne exports remain steady and Arabian Gulf
volumes saw a slight decline
• U.S. NGL production is pushing record levels, showing
few signs of slowing down
• New North American fractionation and export capacity
should increase LPG production and facilitate increased
exports
Asian LPG Demand Remains Strong
• Propane maintains a competitive price advantage as a
feedstock in Asia vs. Naphtha
• A wave of new chemical and PDH plants are planned and
are under construction globally
• LPG retail use continues to grow in India and rural China
Improved Fleet Utilization Reflects Manageable
Orderbook
• Global fleet utilization has also improved meaningfully
• Orderbook-to-fleet remains stable at ~13%
• The costs of IMO 2020 are expected to increase vessel
scrapping
LPG Market Fundamentals
• LPG is cleaner than coal and oil;
as an alternative fuel it can remove
sulfur and particulate exhaust,
reducing greenhouse gas
emissions
• LPG is also highly portable,
making it a convenient source of
energy usable in remote places
where ordinary gas supplies are
unavailable or have been
interrupted
Why Use LPG?
• Liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") is
a combination of C3 (propane) and
C4 (butane)
• Both are natural gas liquids
(“NGLs”) and are a byproduct of oil
and natural gas production
• These molecules are extracted or
fractionated through natural gas
processing and oil refining

• U.S. NGL production is growing at a record pace, but limited fractionation capacity has
constrained product growth
• Growing fractionation capacity at Mont Belvieu should allow midstream players to
fractionate more Y-grade product into propane and butane for export at lower prices
• New capacity at Corpus Christi and Freeport will largely serve Permian volumes

• On 23 August 2018, Beijing placed a 25% tariff on U.S. LPG in response to American tariffs on Chinese exports
• Residential LPG is still required as a substitute for coal in more remote areas, where piped gas infrastructure is too costly to
install, but chemicals should account for a growing share of China’s LPG demand, especially with the nation’s rapidly expanding
petrochemical complex
• The EIA estimates that Chinese petchem demand will rise to a total of more than 21.0 MTPA by 2024
• New wave of Chinese PDH plants is driving demand - Zhejiang Satellite’s 0.5 MTPA expansion is in service and the 0.7 MTPA
Fujian Meide plant is expected to start up in 2H19
• State-owned refiners are also starting up an estimated 3.7 MTPA of alkylation units, which should reduce refinery supplies of
butane currently sold to stand alone deep-processing units and increase the need for imports

been operating at high utilization rates since 2017
• Domestic Chinese LPG production from deep processing
appears to be decreasing
• LPG production from oil refineries has decreased since 2016
• Ongoing government rationalization of refineries may also
decrease domestic LPG production even further over the next
several years

Four Years of Technical and Commercial Experience Operating Scrubbers Systems
An Early Adopter of Scrubber Technology
• Corvette and Concorde were equipped with scrubbers at delivery in 2015
• Dorian LPG has had a head start, employing both a hybrid system and an enhanced open loop system (both VGP compliant)
• Scrubber systems add incremental complexity to vessels’ technical and operational management
• Experience integrating scrubber systems into vessel operations has prepared Dorian LPG to add ten additional scrubber
systems to its fleet with marginal disruption
• Installation is planned to coincide with previously scheduled drydocking reducing vessel offhire and overall installation costs

Vessel Supply Remains Balanced
Recent VLGC Deliveries and Current Orderbook
VLGC Fleet Age Profile and Potential Scrapping
• 6 VLGCs were scrapped in 2018
o 1 ship in 1Q18 (28 yo)
o 3 ships in 2Q18 (avg. age of 32 yo)
o 1 ship in 3Q18 (27 yo)
o 1 ship in 4Q18 (28 yo)
• 35 potential scrapping candidates, represent ~14% of
the current fleet
• IMO 2020 regulations expected to accelerate
scrapping pressure in the near term as compliant fuel
increases in price, making less efficient ships
uneconomical
• Orderbook-to-fleet stands at ~13%
• Increasing output from the U.S., Canada, and
Australia should be enough to absorb near-term
deliveries
• Asian buyers will increasingly look to diversify supply
away from Iran, likely having a positive effect on
utilization and minimizing the impact of new tonnage
