Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements including analyses and other information based on

forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable and statements relating to our future

prospects, developments and business strategies. Forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms

and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,”

“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.

Actual results could differ materially from expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements if one or more of

the underlying assumptions or expectations proves to be inaccurate or is not realized. Our actual future results may

be materially different from and worse than what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements by these

Page 6: Investor Presentations21.q4cdn.com/513962416/files/doc_presentations/2019/12/2019-12-04.pdf · statements. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are made only as of the

• 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

• Beijing imposed a 25% tariff in August 2018, subsequently adding additional 5% tariffs on U.S. butane (Sep.2019) and propane

(Dec. 2019), bringing the total tariff on each fuel to 30%

• 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 total Chinese petchem demand should rise to 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 Q4 2019

• 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

Young Fleet Allows for a Flexible Approach Towards Compliance

A Premium Fleet, Well Prepared for IMO 2020

• Corvette and Concorde delivered scrubber equipped in 2015

• Dorian LPG announced the purchase of ten hybrid scrubbers from

Clean Marine A/S and Pure Ocean Technology

• Planned drydock and upgrades have been completed on two

vessels; five vessels are planned to enter the shipyard during the

quarter ending Dec. 31, 2019 and three during the quarter ending

March 31, 2020

• The Company has been at the forefront of evaluating LPG as a

marine fuel, completing a feasibility study with the American Bureau

of Shipping and signing a letter of intent with Hyundai Heavy Global

Services for the upgrade of up to ten vessels

• Current LPG-HFO cost differential does not fully support the

investment required to retrofit vessels for use of LPG as a primary

marine fuel, but prospects are expected to improve post IMO 2020

• Sixteen of Dorian LPG’s ECO VLGCs were built with strengthened

decks to accommodate LPG fuel deck tanks in anticipation of

potential LPG engine upgrades

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

• The Helios LPG Pool is a 50/50 partnership between Dorian

LPG and Phoenix Tankers, a subsidiary of MOL of Japan

• The primary goal of the Pool is to create a critical mass of

reliable and efficient VLGCs to allow Helios to provide the

most dependable global LPG maritime solution. Offering

spot freight, TCs, and COAs facilitates flexibility and

affordability, while optimizing earnings for all partners

• Earnings are allocated to each vessel participating in the

Pool based on “Pool Points,” which are awarded based on

vessel characteristics such as carrying capacity and fuel

consumption over the relevant period

scrapping zone • 34 forward deliveries vs. 34 vessels potential scrapping

candidates

• Six vessels were scrapped in 2018

• No vessels have been scrapped in 2019

• Average fleet age stands at 9.7 years old

• Current orderbook-to-fleet stands at 12%

• IMO 2020 regulations may accelerate scrapping pressure in

the near term as compliant fuel increases in price, making

less efficient ships uneconomical

Vessel Supply Remains Balanced

Recent VLGC Deliveries and Current Orderbook

VLGC Fleet Age Profile and Potential Scrapping

• Orderbook-to-fleet stands at ~12%

• 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
