Connecting Global Markets with Precision and Liquidity

At Rilex Energy, our LPG Swaps Desk provides comprehensive brokerage coverage across key global markets — including Asia, Europe, and North America — offering clients structured access to pricing instruments through our robust over-the-counter (OTC) and institutional trading network.

Our experienced brokers facilitate trades in a range of LPG-linked derivatives, including propane and butane swaps, calendar spreads, East/West arbitrage structures, and related crack spreads — all executed with precision, discretion, and speed. Whether you’re seeking to hedge exposure, manage physical flows, or optimize trading strategies, our LPG desk delivers the connectivity and insight you need.


🌐 Market Access Where It Matters Most

Our team maintains active relationships with major refiners, traders, storage operators, and financial institutions — ensuring broad and deep access to liquidity across:

  • Far East Asia (FEI-linked LPG contracts)
  • Northwest Europe & the Mediterranean (CIF ARA, CIF Med pricing)
  • US Gulf Coast (Mont Belvieu basis trades)

This geographic diversity enables our clients to confidently pursue cross-market opportunities, manage arbitrage positions, and hedge risk across multiple pricing benchmarks.


🔄 Integrated Strength with Naphtha

Our LPG and Naphtha teams operate in full coordination — a unique advantage that enhances liquidity, idea generation, and cross-product insight. This synergy allows us to:

  • Facilitate related-product strategies (e.g., LPG/Naphtha switches)
  • Monitor and trade propane-to-naphtha spreads
  • Provide seamless execution between markets with interrelated flows

This integration provides added value to both LPG and naphtha clients by offering dynamic market coverage and enhanced trade execution capabilities.


📊 Strategic Support & Daily Insight

Beyond execution, we provide our clients with timely market intelligence, pricing transparency, and custom reporting tools to support informed decision-making in volatile conditions. Whether you’re managing freight-exposed supply chains or navigating forward curves, our desk delivers consistent value beyond the screen.


At Rilex Energy, we don’t just facilitate LPG swaps — we build relationships, generate liquidity, and ensure that every transaction is guided by deep market knowledge and unwavering professionalism.
