Dutch entrepreneurs Peter Versluis (Veka Group), Gerard Deen (Deen Shipping) and Ed de Jong (IUVENIS) join forces with Peter Goedvolk who recently started Count: a commodity, trading and logistics company. The cooperation is to stimulate the trade, transport and bunkering of small scale LNG in North West Europe.

Previously, Veka Group and Deen Shipping launched their LNG company LNG Bunkering Services and announced the new build of the first LNG Bunker tanker LNG Prime. The LNG Prime is 90 metres long and has a loading capacity of 1000 tonnes of LNG. It will sail solely on its own boil-off.

The vessel will be active in the ARA-region bunkering seagoing vessels as of the beginning of 2016. It will be the first LNG bunker tanker in Rotterdam.

LNG Trading

With Goedvolk, the company hopes to add an LNG trading branch to the company which will help develop the LNG small scale market in the ARA-region.
