OUR STORY

The Argent Marine Companies were established in 1988 to acquire and operate two 125,000 m3 LNG tankers placed under 20-year time charters to Royal Dutch Shell.

Argent Marine's expertise in LNG transportation derives from our ownership and managements of those tankers and our efforts to assist Shell in identifying novel ways of placing the ships in service during the periods of surplus tonnage in the 1990s.

Over the years Argent Marine has provided various marine consulting services to a range of customers with diverse maritime interests.  Services have included LNG Support to the US Coast Guard on critical LNG safety and navigation issues.  We have also provided LNG consulting services to the Guandong LNG Project, one of the first project to bring LNG to China.  Argent Marine was chosen to assist the US Maritime Administration on environmental issues pertaining to ship disposals.

 In 2021, Argent Marine’s intermodal technology was utilized under license to an affiliate of New Fortress Energy for transporting LNG in the Caribbean and the territorial wars of Mexico, the USA and Canada.
