The beginning of the liquefied gas maritime transport industry dates back to the thirties of the last century, when experimental methods were used to find a solution for transporting cargo under pressure. The beginnings looked like the most common crude oil tankers were converted into gas tankers by installing small vessels in already existing cargo tanks. Through the following decades, the development of technology and the discovery of new materials enabled the construction of larger, stronger and safer ships, the improvement of which is still ongoing today. Due to their physical properties with an emphasis on non-toxicity, high calorific value and low sulfur content, liquefied natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas lead this market. The strengthening of green logistics and the promotion of new ecological values focused the industry on the recognition of these gases as green alternative energy sources. As the title says, this paper will deal with current and future trends in the industry and the changes it has experienced, among other things, as a result of certain geopolitical and health events at the world level. The Covid-19 pandemic will be mentioned in more detail and its effect on the supply and demand of this energy source will be discussed. By studying the fluctuations of freight rates over different time periods and the share of the fleet of ships in the world market, the report will conclude on the upcoming trends and the state of the market.
