LPG Buyer Requests – Global Commodities Trading 2025

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) continues to play a vital role in global energy markets. In 2025, demand is projected to grow by over 3% year-on-year, with consumption in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East driving most of the growth.

LPG is critical both as a household energy source and as an industrial feedstock for petrochemicals.

Trusted Pathways for Global LPG Supply

The UAE, and specifically Fujairah and Jebel Ali, serve as key storage and shipping hubs for LPG in the global supply chain. As buyers seek long-term contracts, verified sellers with secure allocations remain in high demand.


What Buyers Are Requesting in 2025

At Auctora Trade Group, we are currently receiving serious requests for:

  • CIF deliveries into India, East Africa, and Southeast Asia.
  • FOB liftings from Middle Eastern and West African terminals.
  • Long-term contracts (12 months+) with stable monthly liftings.
  • Partial Proof of Product (PPOP) prior to issuance of financial instruments.
  • Payment terms structured via SBLC, DLC, or MT103 after inspection, in line with Incoterms 2020.

Auctora’s Role

The LPG trade is often clouded by broker chains and speculative offers. At Auctora, we focus on verification and compliance, ensuring sellers and buyers engage in transactions that are:


  • Verified — we confirm refinery allocations, mandates, and export licences.
  • Compliant — aligned with Incoterms 2020 and industry standards.
  • Bankable — structured with workable instruments that protect both parties.



This protects sellers from paper buyers and ensures buyers only work with credible, performance-ready suppliers.
