USA imports LPG?

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

USA imports LPG?

#1

I noticed in https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/ ... GTUK_email Suez canal tugboat sinks after collision leaving one person missing
The vessel involved in the collision was the Hong Kong-flagged LPG tanker Chinagas Legend, which was heading from Singapore to the US.
If it was loaded, why? Maybe it was going to fetch gas?
Which made me wonder how you ballast an empty LPG tanker? flood the double-skin hull? I wouldn't think you want to get the gas tanks wet.
