The increase in net pool allocation was attributable to the movement in the adjustment of the net pool results earned by the GasLog vessels in accordance with the pool distribution formula. GasLog recognized gross revenues and gross voyage expenses and commissions of $102.3 million and $10.2 million, respectively, from the operation of its vessels in the Cool Pool during the year ended December 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017: $38.0 million and $9.1 million, respectively).
