BALTIC TRANS GAS OÜ

What BALTIC TRANS GAS OÜ does

Baltic Trans Gas OÜ is a privately held Estonian freight forwarding and logistics company founded in 2013 and headquartered at Narva mnt. 7A, korp B, fl. 6, of. 611 in Tallinn. The company organizes railway, road, and marine transportation services, primarily serving oil refineries and petrochemical producers. Its core asset base is a fleet of 130 owned railway tank wagons dedicated to liquefied gas transportation, all assigned to Estonian Railways and physically based at MARDU RAUDTEE AS infrastructure in Estonia. These wagons operate across the 1520mm gauge railway network spanning former Soviet states, Baltic countries, and Central Asia.

The company extends its multimodal logistics offering during the April-October navigation season with chartered freight tankers transporting oil products from Caspian Sea refineries to Black Sea and Mediterranean destinations including Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Cyprus, Greece, and Malta. In parallel, Baltic Trans Gas operates a petrochemical product trading desk, sourcing goods directly from Commodity and Raw Material Exchanges in Central Asian countries as a registered trading participant with its own broker.

Revenue is generated primarily through freight forwarding fees on transportation services supplemented by transaction-based margins on petrochemical commodity purchases and resales. The company uses a direct-sales go-to-market model: prospective enterprise clients initiate contact via the company's multilingual website (baltictransgas.eu), email ([email protected]), or phone. No public pricing, customer logos, partnerships beyond Estonian Railways and MARDU RAUDTEE AS, headcount specifics, or financial disclosures are available beyond the firm's 1-10 employee scale and over a decade of operational continuity.
