Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Significant Accounting Policies	'
	2.      Significant Accounting Policies:
	Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, the accounts and operating results of the Company. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company consolidates subsidiaries where it holds a controlling financial interest or it has an interest in a variable interest entity (VIE). The condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of majority of the voting interest of over 50% of the outstanding voting shares or the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly affect the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. Noncontrolling interest in both equity and income statement of subsidiaries are stated separately.
	Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	Foreign Currency Transactions: The functional currency of Aegean and its material subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar because the Company purchases and sells marine petroleum products in the international oil and gas markets and because the Company's vessels operate in international shipping markets; both of these international markets transact business primarily in U.S. dollars. The Company's accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are adjusted to reflect the year-end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are reflected separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The financial statements of the Company's subsidiaries with functional currencies other than U.S. dollars have been converted to U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities are translated using the period end exchange rate. Shareholders equity accounts are translated using historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated using the weighted average exchange rate in effect during the period. Exchange differences on the translation of entities with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar, are recognized directly in the foreign currency translation reserve as other comprehensive income.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers highly liquid investments such as time deposits and certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
	Restricted Cash: Restricted cash consists of interest-bearing deposits with certain banks as cash collateral against outstanding short-term facilities and retention accounts that can only be used for the purposes of repayment of current portions of long-term loans. Restricted cash also includes interest-bearing deposits with an international bank as cash collateral against standby letters of credit issued by the same bank to a shipyard. Restricted cash is classified as non-current when the funds are to be used to acquire non-current assets.
	Trade Receivables, net: Management is responsible for approving credit to customers, setting and maintaining credit standards, and managing the overall quality of the credit portfolio. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers based upon payment history and the assessments of customers' credit worthiness. The Company generally provides payment terms of approximately 30 days. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon its historical experience with its customers, current market conditions of its customers, and any specific customer collection issues. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Company had accounts receivable of $477,738, and $472,543 before allowances for bad debts of $3,503 and $2,622 as of December 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Allowances for doubtful accounts are summarized as follows:
		Allowances for doubtful accounts
	Balance, December 31, 2011	$    1,354
	- Additions	2,149
	Balance, December 31, 2012	$    3,503
	- Reductions	(881)
	Balance, December 31, 2013	$    2,622
	The Company transfers ownership of eligible trade accounts receivable to a third-party purchaser without recourse in exchange of cash. The factoring of trade accounts receivable under the agreement is accounted for as a sale. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the face value of the account less a discount. The receivables sold pursuant to this factoring agreement are excluded from trade receivables in the consolidated balance sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company continues to service, administer and collect the receivables sold under this program. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets as the Company estimates the fee it receives is at fair value. Servicing fees are recorded in the interest and finance costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
	Insurance Claims: Insurance claims are recorded on the accrual basis once recovery is probable under the related insurance policies and the Company can make an estimate of the amount to be reimbursed. Insurance claims represent the claimable expenses, net of deductibles, incurred through December 31 of each year, which are expected to be recovered from insurance companies.
	Inventories: Inventories comprise marine fuel oil ("MFO"), marine gas oil ("MGO"), lubricants and victualling stores, which are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first in, first out method. Inventory costs include expenditures directly incurred in bringing the inventory to its existing condition and location.
	Vessel Cost: Vessels are stated at cost, which consists of the contract price and any material expenses incurred upon acquisition (initial repairs, improvements and delivery expenses, interest and on-site supervision costs incurred during the construction periods). Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels; otherwise these amounts are charged to expense as incurred.
	Advances and milestone payments made to shipyards during construction periods are classified as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" until the date of delivery and acceptance of the vessel, at which date they are reclassified to "Vessels, cost". Advances for vessels under construction also include supervision costs, amounts paid under engineering contracts, capitalized interest and other expenses directly related to the construction of the vessels.
	Amounts of interest to be capitalized during the asset acquisition period are determined by applying an interest rate ("the capitalization rate") to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The capitalization rates used in an accounting period are based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period. The Company does not capitalize amounts in excess of actual interest expense incurred in the period. If the Company's financing plans associate a specific new borrowing with a qualifying asset, the Company uses the rate on that borrowing as the capitalization rate to be applied to that portion of the average accumulated expenditures for the asset that does not exceed the amount of that borrowing. If average accumulated expenditures for the asset exceed the amounts of specific new borrowings associated with the asset, the capitalization rate applied to such excess is a weighted average of the rates applicable to other borrowings of the Company.
	Vessels acquired as a part of an acquisition are recognized at their fair value as at the date of the acquisition.
	Vessel Depreciation on Ocean- going Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's bunkering and non-bunkering tankers to be 30 years and 25 years, respectively, from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's floating storage facilities to be 30 years from the date of acquisition. Secondhand vessels are depreciated from the date of their acquisition through their remaining estimated useful life. However, when regulations place limitations on the ability of a vessel to trade, its useful life is adjusted to end at the date such regulations become effective.
	Vessel Depreciation on In-Land Waterway Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the in-land waterway bunkering tankers to be 45 years from the date of the initial delivery from the shipyard.
	Intangible Assets: Intangible assets consist of three concession agreements, in the United Kingdom, the Canary Islands and Panama, one below market acquired time charter in the United States of America, and a non-compete covenant in Belgium. Concession agreements provide an exclusive right to perform bunkering operations at a specific port over a specified period of time. These assets are being amortized over their useful life.
	Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. These assets are being amortized over their useful life.
	Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the net of the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and the fair value of liabilities assumed in business acquisitions. As required by the goodwill topic of the FASB Accounting Standard Codification, goodwill is not amortized, but reviewed as of December 31 of each year for impairment. The Company also evaluates goodwill for impairment at any time that events occur or circumstances change indicating a possible impairment. The Company tests for goodwill impairment using the two-step process. The first step is a screen for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. Fair value of the reporting units is derived using discounted cash flow analysis.
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: Accounting guidance requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used or to be disposed of by an entity, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In evaluating useful lives and carrying values of long-lived assets, the Company reviews certain indicators of potential impairment, such as vessel sale and purchase prices in the marketplace, business plans and overall market conditions. When the estimate of undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to be generated by the use of the asset and any future disposal is less than its carrying amount, the asset should be evaluated for an impairment loss. In developing estimates of future cash flows, the Company relied upon estimates made by management with regard to the Company's vessels, including future deliveries, operating expenses, and the estimated remaining useful lives of the vessels. These assumptions are based on historical trends as well as future expectations and are consistent with the plans and forecasts used by management to conduct its business. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions, including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions; therefore, the Company's accounting estimates might change from period to period. In the event that undiscounted projected net operating cash flows were less than carrying value, the Company would estimate the fair value of the related asset and record a charge to operations calculated by comparing the asset's carrying value to the estimated fair value. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as determined by management considering third-party valuations and discounted future cash flows attributable to the vessel or asset group. The Company regularly reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets. The Company had no impairment losses in any of the periods presented.
	Accounting for Drydocking Costs: The Company's vessels are generally required to be drydocked every 30 to 60 months for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are in operation. The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for drydocking costs whereby actual costs incurred are deferred and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking is scheduled to become due. Unamortized drydocking costs of vessels that are sold are written off against income in the year of the vessel's sale.
	Leases: Leases are classified as capital leases if they meet at least one of the following criteria: (i) the leased asset automatically transfers title at the end of the lease term; (ii) the lease contains a bargain purchase option; (iii) the lease term equals or exceeds 75% of the remaining estimated economic life of the leased asset; (iv) or the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90% of the excess of fair value of the leased property. If none of the above criteria is met, the lease is accounted for as an operating lease.
	The Company records vessels under capital leases as fixed assets at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease or the fair value of the vessel. Vessels under capital leases are amortized over the estimated remaining useful life of the vessel or until the end of the lease term, if shorter. Assets held under capital leases are presented as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" in the balance sheet until the vessel is deemed ready for its intended use and the balance is reclassified to "Vessels, cost". The current portion of capitalized lease obligations are reflected in the balance sheet in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and remaining long-term capitalized lease obligations are presented as "Other non-current liabilities".
	Financing Costs: Fees incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing loans are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid or refinanced are generally expensed in the period the repayment or refinancing is made.
	Convertible Senior Notes: In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification guidance for convertible debt instruments that contain cash settlement options upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company determines the carrying amount of the liability and equity component of its convertible notes by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the embedded conversion option is determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds. The resulting debt discount is amortized to interest cost using the effective interest method over the period the debt is expected to be outstanding as an additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs associated with the instrument are allocated pro-rata between the debt and equity components.
	Pension and Retirement Benefit Obligations: The vessel-owning companies included in the consolidation employ the crew on board under short-term contracts (usually up to nine months) and accordingly, they are not liable for any pension or post retirement benefits. The Company's full-time Greek employees are covered by state-sponsored pension funds for which the Company is required to contribute a portion of the monthly salary of these employees to the fund (i.e., a defined contribution plan). Upon retirement of these employees, the state-sponsored pension funds are responsible for paying the employees' retirement benefits and accordingly, the Company has no obligation for these benefits.
	Accounting for Revenues and Expenses: Revenues are principally earned from the physical supply of marine petroleum products via the Company's bunkering tankers. In this respect, sales of marine petroleum products and cost of sales of marine petroleum products are recorded in the period when the marine petroleum products are loaded onto the customer's vessel. In Greece, revenues are earned from the sale of marine petroleum products through a related party physical supplier (refer to Note 5). These sales and the respective cost of sales are recorded in the period when the related party physical supplier delivers the marine petroleum products to the customer.
	For arrangements in which the Company physically supplies marine petroleum products via its own bunkering tankers, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents amounts paid by the Company for marine petroleum products sold in the period being reported on. For arrangements in which marine petroleum products are purchased from the Company's related party physical supplier, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents the total amount paid by the Company to the physical supplier for marine petroleum products and the delivery thereof to the Company's customer.
	Revenues are also generated from voyage agreements of the Company's vessels. Under a voyage charter the revenues and associated voyage costs are recognized over the duration of the voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the later of the completion of discharge of the vessel's previous cargo or upon vessel arrival to the agreed upon port based on the terms of a voyage contract and is not cancelable and voyage is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the delivered cargo.
	The Company also recognizes other revenues which mainly derive from brokerage and agency fees, throughput fees and storage fees. These revenues are recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured.
	Operating expenses are accounted for on the accrual basis. The selling and distribution expenses generally represent indirect expenses incurred for selling and distribution and related to the delivery of the products and services to the customers. The general and administrative expenses are presented separately and represent the administrative cost of managing the Company such as the office administrative personnel, the maintenance of the Company's office property, equipment and other fixed assets and its depreciation, and all the general office expenses, professional fees, travel expenses and utilities.
	Repairs and Maintenance: All vessel repair and maintenance expenses, including major overhauling (which are non-scheduled repairs and maintenance work undertaken on a vessel's engine) and underwater inspections are expensed in the year incurred. Such costs are included in other operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
	Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, as required by the generally accepted accounting principles for income taxes reporting. Under this method deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities at each period end corresponding to those jurisdictions subject to income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary items and an offsetting valuation allowance is recorded to the extent that it is not more likely than not that the asset will be realized. Deferred tax is measured based on tax rates and laws enacted at the balance sheet date in any jurisdiction.
	Income tax regulations in the different countries in which the Company operates under which the Company's uncertain income tax positions are determined could be interpreted differently resulting in tax obligations differing from those currently presented. In this sense, the income tax returns of the Company's primary tax jurisdictions remain subject to examination by related tax authorities.
	Earnings per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares deemed outstanding during the year. Net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income less that amount allocable to non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents and participate equally in undistributed earnings. Non-vested share-based payment awards have no contractual obligations to share in the losses of the entity and are therefore excluded from the calculation of loss per share. Diluted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. Dilution has been computed by the treasury stock method whereby all of the Company's dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price of the Company's common stock during the relevant periods. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share computation. Non-vested shares are included in the calculation of the diluted earnings per shares, based on the weighted average number of non-vested shares assumed to be outstanding during the period.
	Contingencies: The Company accrues for a loss if the Company deems it probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company deems it reasonably possible that a liability has been incurred, the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the amount of loss is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
	Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of the current financial assets and current financial liabilities reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate their respective fair values because of the short term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value of the revolving credit facilities is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for the floating rate loans and revolving credit facilities due to their variable  interest rate, being EURIBOR or LIBOR. LIBOR and EURIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating rate loans are considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. The Convertible Senior Notes have a fixed rate and their estimated fair values were determined through Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy (quoted price in the over-the counter-market). The estimated fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes at December 31, 2013, is approximately $91,317 compared to a carrying value net of finance charges of $70,825.
	The Company enters into derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in fuel and the interest rate risk deriving from its loan agreements. The derivative instruments are classified according to the accounting guidance provided by US generally accepted accounting principles for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company currently does not apply hedge accounting to its derivative instruments.
	Interest Rate Swap: Changes in the estimated fair value of the interest rate swap are recognized as components of interest and finance costs in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the contract is recorded in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in non-current liabilities.
	Fuel Pricing Contracts: Changes in the estimated fair value of the fuel pricing contracts are recognized as components of cost of revenue in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the outstanding fuel pricing contracts is presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in current assets/liabilities. The Company classifies cash flows related to derivative financial instruments within cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
	For more information on the Company's derivatives, see Note 16.
	Gains/Losses on sale of subsidiary: Gains or losses that result from a loss of a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary are recorded in earnings and are classified as nonoperating gains and losses.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
	There are no recent accounting pronouncements effective for the current period whose adoption would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements in the current period.

Significant Acquisitions	'
	3.      Significant Acquisitions:
	U.S. East Coast Business: On December 18, 2013, the Company, via its subsidiary Aegean Bunkering USA, acquired Hess 's U.S. East Coast operations (the "US East Coast Business"), for a total consideration of $30,000 plus the inventory acquired on closing which amounted to 97,390. The U.S. East Coast business includes physical supplies of marine fuel products to seagoing ships in ports and at sea. The bunkering operations supply the heavily trafficked ports of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk and Charleston, and include approximately 250,000 cubic meters of leased tank storage. This transaction marks the Company's entry into supplying customers in the U.S. and increases its exposure to U.S. clients worldwide, including leading cruise lines.
	The following table presents the fair value of the assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date.
	Purchase Price
	Cash consideration to sellers	$                              127,390
	Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities Acquired
	Inventories	$                              97,390

	Total fair value of assets and liabilities acquired	$                               99,305
	Goodwill	$                               28,085
	Goodwill, which arose on the acquisition, constitutes a premium paid by the Company over the fair value of the net assets of the U.S. East Coast Business, which is attributable to anticipated benefits from the unique position of the U.S. East Coast Business in the markets in which it operates.
	The preparation of pro-forma information of the Company as though the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the current reporting year and of comparable information for the prior reporting year is impracticable due to different accounting principles and policies applied and due to the fact that Hess historically operated the U.S. East Coast business primarily as part of its integrated distribution network. Therefore, meaningful historical revenue information is not available. As such, the Company has not presented pro forma earnings information for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013.
	The amounts of revenue and earnings of the U.S. East Coast Business since the acquisition date included in the consolidated income statements are as follows:
	Total revenues       $29,347
	Net income            $ 468

	The goodwill presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is analyzed as follows:
			Year Ended December 31,
			2012	2013

	U.S. East Coast business acquisition		-	28,085
	Balance at end of year		$      37,946	$   66,031

	(m)        On March 11, 2013, the Company's subsidiary, Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation entered into a credit facility for an aggregate amount of $73,500 with an international commercial bank to finance the construction of our new oil terminal in Fujairah. The loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning March 31, 2014 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 5.25%.
	The agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company maintain a consolidated net working capital not less than $50,000 until the end of the quarter of the first utilization date and $125,000 thereafter; consolidated tangible net worth not less than $410,000; current ratio not less than 1.05-to-one until the end of the quarter of the first utilization date and 1.15-to-one; consolidated total liabilities to total assets not more that 0.70-to-one; consolidated EBITDA to interest expense not less than 1.90-to one.
	(n)       On October 23, 2013 the Company issued $75,000 aggregate principal amount of 4% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes (“Notes”), which are due November 1, 2018. The full over allotment option granted was exercised and an additional $11,250 Notes were purchased by the underwriters. Accordingly, $86,250 in aggregate principal amount of Notes was sold, resulting in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $83,447 after the underwriters commissions.
	The holders may convert their Notes at any time on or after May 1, 2018, but prior to maturity. However, holders may also convert their Notes prior to May 1, 2018, under the following circumstances: (1) if the closing price of the common stock reaches and remains at or above 130% of the conversion price of $14.23 per share of common stock, or 70.2679 shares of common stock per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, in effect on that last trading day, for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which the conversion occurs; (2) during the five consecutive trading-day period after any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of
	the Notes for each day of that period was less than 98% of the closing price of the Company's common stock multiplied by then applicable conversion rate; or (3) if specified distributions to holders of the Company's common stock are made or specified corporate events occur.
	Since the Notes contain a cash settlement option upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company has bifurcated, at the issuance date, the $86,250 principal amount of the Notes into liability and equity components of $72,696 and $13,554, respectively, by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component of the Notes by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The equity component was calculated by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds received at issuance.
	The Company's interest expense associated with these Notes is based on an effective interest rate of 9% and the difference from the interest payable upon the Notes is amortized until the expiration of the Notes and included under interest and finance cost in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (Note 21).
The total interest expense related to the Notes in the Company's consolidated financial statements statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013 amounted to $1,143 of which $491 are non-cash amortization of the discount on the liability component and of the transaction costs allocated to the liability component, $652 are the contractual interest payable semi-annually at a coupon rate of 4% per year.
(o)       Obligations with a maturity of less than one year amounting to $115,000 have been presented as long-term in accordance with US GAAP as the Company had the intent to and ability to refinance the obligations on a long-term basis through the financing agreement that the Company has entered on September 19, 2013 discussed below.
On September 19, 2013, Aegean Marine Petroleum S.A., Aegean Petroleum International Inc. and Aegean NWE N.V., our wholly-owned subsidiaries, entered into a $1 billion Secured Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility with a syndicate of commercial lenders, which the Company and these subsidiaries have guaranteed. The facility is comprised of three tranches, consisting of Tranche A of $155,000 for a one year tenor, Tranche B of $115,000 for a two year tenor and Tranche C of $730,000 for an uncommitted tenor. Outstanding amounts under Tranche A and Tranche B bear interest at LIBOR, plus a margin of 2.5% and 2.9%, respectively, and outstanding amounts under Tranche C bear interest at a rate determined by the relevant lender that represents its cost of funds, plus a margin of 2.4%. The facility imposes certain operating and financial restrictions on us, which restrict our ability to incur debt, change our legal and beneficial ownership, merge or consolidate, acquire or incorporate companies and change our business activities. In addition, the facility contains financial covenants which require the Company  to maintain (i) minimum consolidated net working capital of not less than $35,000 which will increase to $125 million following the quarter of the first utilization date, (ii) consolidated net tangible net worth of $410,000, (iii) a current ratio of at least 1.04 to-one which will increase to 1.15-to-one following the quarter of the first utilization date and (iv) an interest cover ratio of at least 1.9-to-one. Following satisfaction of all closing conditions, we will use a portion of the proceeds of this facility to repay certain of our existing working capital facilities. We had no outstanding balance under this facility as of December 31, 2013.
As at December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants contained in its credit facilities.
As of December 31, 2013, the outstanding vessel-financing loans are generally collateralized as follows:
•      First priority assignment of the shipbuilding contracts and first priority mortgages over the vessels (when completed);
•      Assignments of insurance and earnings of the mortgaged vessels (when completed);
•      An undertaking from the vessels' manager.
The vessel-financing loan agreements contain ship finance covenants including restrictions as to changes in management and ownership of the vessels, additional indebtedness and mortgaging of vessels without the bank's prior consent as well as minimum requirements regarding the ratio of the market value of the relevant vessel to the outstanding loan amount and the ratio of the insured amount of the relevant vessel to the outstanding loan amount. In addition, the borrowing companies and/or their managers must maintain working capital accounts with the lending banks, as defined in the loan agreements. Furthermore, the vessel-owning subsidiary companies are not permitted to pay any dividends without the lenders' prior consent. As of December 31, 2013, most of the Company's vessels, having a total carrying value of $344,858, has been provided as collateral to secure the long-term debt discussed above.
Total interest incurred on long-term debt for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013 amounted to $9,386, $8,933 and $7,264, respectively, (Note 21) and is included in interest and finance costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Accrued interest expense on long-term debt as of December 31, 2012 and 2013 amounted to $349 and $1,086, respectively, and is included in accrued and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
There was no amount available under the Company's long-term debt agreements as of December 31, 2013 other than the amount of $115,000 discussed above which is intended to refinance our short term borrowings.
The annual principal payments required to be made after December 31, 2013, are as follows:

Derivatives and fair value measurements	'
	16.      Derivatives and fair value measurements:
	The Company uses derivatives in accordance with its overall risk management strategy. The changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately through earnings. For additional information on our derivatives accounting policy, see Note 2.
	The following describes the Company's derivative classifications: The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to economically hedge its exposure to variability in its floating rate long-term debt. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, the Company and the bank agreed to exchange at specified intervals the difference between paying fixed rate and floating rate interest amount calculated by reference to the agreed principal amount and maturity. Interest rate swaps allow the Company to convert long-term borrowings issued at floating rates to equivalent fixed rates.
	As of December 31, 2012 and 2013, the Company was committed to the following 15 year interest rate swap arrangement with a call option for the bank to terminate it after 5 years duration, on March 31, 2016:
			Interest Rate Index		Principal Amount		As of December 31, 2012             Fair Value/Carrying Amount of Liability		Weighted-average remaining term	Fixed Interest Rate
	U.S. Dollar-denominated Interest Rate Swap		Euribor		$         6,631		$       632		13.25	2.35%
			Interest Rate Index		Principal Amount		As of December 31, 2013             Fair Value/Carrying Amount of Liability		Weighted-average remaining term	Fixed Interest Rate
	U.S. Dollar-denominated Interest Rate Swap		Euribor		$         6,386		$       470		12.25	2.35%
	The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the interest rate swap agreement. In order to minimize counterparty risk, the Company enters into derivative transactions with counterparties that are rated AAA or at least A at the time of the transactions.
	The Company uses fuel pricing contracts to hedge exposure to changes in the net cost of marine fuel purchases. The Company has the right of offset with the counterparty of the fuel pricing contracts, and settles outstanding balances on a monthly basis. Therefore, these amounts are presented on a net basis in the consolidated balance sheets (on a gross basis: an asset of $182 and a liability of $185 as of December 31, 2012 and an asset of $61 and a liability of $900 as of December 31, 2013).
	The following table presents information about our derivative instruments measured at fair value and their locations on the consolidated balance sheets:
				As of  December 31,
	Liabilities	Balance Sheet Location		2012		2013
	Fuel pricing contracts	Derivative liabilities, current		(3)		(839	)
	Interest rate swaps	Derivative liabilities, non-current		(632)		(470	)
	Total, net			$      (635)		$             (1,309)
	The following table presents the effect and financial statement location of our derivative instruments on our consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013:
		Statements of Income		For the year ended December 31,
	Income/ (loss)	Location		2011		2012		2013
	Fuel pricing contracts	Cost of revenue - third-parties		$       375		(10,596	)	$     (2,693)
	Interest rate contracts	Interest and finance costs		(424	)	(331	)	20
	Total			$      (49)		-10,927		$     (2,673)
	The following table sets forth by level our assets/ liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As required by the fair value guidance, assets/ liabilities are categorized in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
					Fair value measurements at December 31, 2012
	Assets/ (Liabilities)		Total		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs  (Level 3)
	Interest Rate Swap		$              632		-		632		$                -
	Fuel pricing contracts		3		-		3		-

	Fuel pricing contracts		839		-		839		-
	Total		$           1,309		-		1,309		$                -
	.
	The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using the discounted cash flow method based on market-based Euribor rates swap yield curves, taking into account current interest rates. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs.
	The Company uses observable inputs to calculate the mark-to-market valuation of the fuel pricing derivatives. Fuel pricing contracts are valued using quoted market prices of the underlying commodity. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013, the Company entered into fuel pricing contracts for 2,636,768 metric tons and 2,067,740 metric tons, respectively.
	The Company's derivatives trade in over-the-counter markets, and as such, model inputs are generally observable and do not require significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]	'
Commitments and Contingencies	'
	17.      Commitments and Contingencies:
	a)      Long-term Supply Contracts: On December 3, 2004, the Company signed an eight-year Fuel Purchase Agreement with a government refinery in Jamaica for the supply of mainly MFO and MGO at a price equal to average PLATTS prices plus a margin. The contract stipulates that the Company and refinery are not required to transact for more than a maximum quantity of marine fuel per month; however, by mutual agreement, the maximum quantity per month may be revised upwards. Invoices become due thirty calendar days from the date of delivery. Interest on overdue payments accrues at a rate equal to the local overdraft rate in Jamaica. On December 30, 2009, an addendum between the two parties was signed, which extends the original agreement until December 31, 2014. On April 1, 2005, the Company signed a ten-year Marine Fuel Supply Service Agreement with the Greek Subcontractor (refer to Note 5).
	(b)      Lease Commitments: The Company leases certain property under operating leases, which require the Company to pay maintenance, insurance and other expenses in addition to annual rentals. The minimum annual payments under all noncancelable operating leases at December 31, 2013 are as follows:
	2014	$                  28,700
	2015	28,704
	2016	28,384
	2017	28,307
	2018	26,998
	Thereafter	166,688
	Total minimum annual payments under all noncancelable operating leases	$                307,781
	Rent expense under operating leases was $4,234, $7,375 and $19,427 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.
	(c)      Standby Letters Of Credit: In the normal course of business, for certain suppliers, under certain long-term supply contracts, or under certain long-term construction contracts, the Company is required to post standby letters of credit in order to secure lines of credit. As of December 31, 2013, the total outstanding standby letters of credit amounted to $144,646. The Company has not defaulted on payment of any of its accounts payable so as to cause any of the issuers of the standby letters of credit to settle the Company's accounts payable on the Company's behalf. All the standby letters of credit expire during 2014. The Company expects to extend the validity date of these instruments throughout the duration of the Company's contractual or operating relationships with the respective suppliers.
	(d)      Letters of Guarantee: Under the Singapore law, the Company is required to issue letters of guarantee for payroll taxes of crew members during their employment. The guarantee extends for the duration of the employment and the Company is required to pay only if the crew member does not meet individual tax obligations. The Company currently does not believe it will be required to make a payment under these guarantees and accordingly has not recorded any liability. The maximum amount the Company could be required to pay as of December 31, 2012 and 2013 is $676 (or SIN$552,000) and $463 (or SIN$365,000), respectively, and is maintained in fixed deposits and presented in the prepayments and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company is also required to issue letters of guarantee in the U.A.E. for the port authorities and for the employees' passports and permits. The maximum amount the Company could be required to pay as of December 31, 2012 and 2013 is $0 and $158 (or AED580,000), respectively, and is maintained in fixed deposits and presented in the prepayments and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Furthermore, the Company has issued letters of guarantee for transporting cargo on behalf of our time-charter parties for amounts of $1,191 (€865,000) and $742 (€540,000) as of December 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively, and are maintained in fixed deposits and presented in the prepayments and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
	(e)      Environmental and Other Liabilities: The Company accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the Company's exposure. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company's Protection and Indemnity ("P&I") insurance policies cover third-party liability and other expenses related to injury or death of crew, passengers and other third-parties, loss or damage of cargo, claims arising from collisions with other vessels, damage to other third-party property, and pollution arising from oil or other substances. The Company's coverage under the P&I insurance policies, except for pollution, are unlimited. Coverage for pollution is $1 billion per vessel per incident.
	(f)       Legal Matters
	In November 2005, an unrelated party filed a declaratory action against one of the Company's subsidiaries before the First Instance Court of Piraeus, Greece. The plaintiff asserted that he was instrumental in the negotiation of the Company's eight-year Fuel Purchase Agreement with a government refinery in Jamaica and sought a judicial affirmation of his alleged contractual right to receive a commission of $0.01 per metric ton of marine fuel over the term of the contract. In December 2008, the First Instance Court of Piraeus dismissed the plaintiff's action as vague and inadmissible, however the Company appealed that decision on the grounds that there was no contract between the Company and the plaintiff and that the court lacked jurisdiction. While the action was pending in Greece, the plaintiff commenced a new action involving the same cause of action before the Commercial Court of Paris, France, which dismissed that action in June 2009. The plaintiff's appeal of the dismissal was denied by the Paris Court of Appeal in February 2010. In January 2012, the plaintiff commenced a new action relating to the same allegations before the Commercial Court of Paris, which was dismissed on June 27, 2012 in favor of the competence and jurisdiction of the Greek courts. In July 2012, the plaintiff filed a "contredit," an appeal procedure under French law. On November 2013, the Court held that the matter is not pending in Greece that would allow the French courts to decline jurisdiction to the benefit of the Greek proceedings. As a consequence the case is to return to the Commercial Court of Paris which should have to examine the admissibility of Mr. Varouxis' claim in France.  The Company believes that this matter fails for lack of jurisdiction and is unwarranted and lacking in merit. The Company believes that the outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material effect on its operations and financial position.
	In May, 2013, on the order of STX Corporation (“STX Corp.”), the Company supplied bunkers to the vessel UNICO SIENNA in the Port of Singapore. The invoice for those bunkers totaled approximately $323. STX Corp. has filed for reorganization in Korea, and has filed for protection under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Company believes that has maritime liens against this vessel, and has arrested the UNICO SIENNA in Panama to enforce its maritime lien against it. The Company intends to exercise its remedies for recovery of the unpaid amounts and believes that it will recover the full amount due.
	Various claims, suits, and complains, including those involving government regulations and product liability, arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers and agents and insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company's vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Equity Incentive Plan	'
	23.   Equity Incentive Plan:
	The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award which is determined by the closing price of the Company's common stock traded on the NYSE on the grant date, and recognizes the cost as expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. The expense is recorded in the general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Aegean is incorporated in a non-taxable jurisdiction and accordingly, no deferred tax assets are recognized for these stock-based incentive awards.
	On November 2, 2006, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan ("2006 Plan"), under which the Company's officers, key employees and directors are eligible to receive stock-based incentive awards including nonvested stock, nonvested stock units (with or without dividend equivalents), unrestricted stock, at-the-money nonqualified stock options and stock appreciation rights. The 2006 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company's board of directors and the aggregate number of shares of common stock reserved under this plan is 4,053,500. The Company's board of directors may terminate the 2006 Plan at any time. The 2006 Plan expires ten years from the date of adoption.
	All grants of nonvested stock issued under the 2006 Plan are subject to accelerated vesting upon certain circumstances set forth in the 2006 Plan.

Common stock, Treasury Stock and Additional Paid-In Capital	'
	24.   Common Stock, Treasury Stock and Additional Paid-In Capital:
	Authorized Capital
	Aegean was formed on June 6, 2005, under the laws of the Marshall Islands. Aegean's authorized common and preferred stock since inception consisted of 100,000,000 common shares (all in registered form), par value $0.01 per share and 25,000,000 preferred shares (all in registered form), par value $0.01 per share. The holders of the common shares are entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and to receive all dividends, if any. The Company's board of directors shall have the authority to establish such series of preferred stock and with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions as shall be stated in the resolutions providing for the issue of such preferred stock.
	Share Issuance and Repurchase
	On June 8, 2005, Aegean issued 30,472,827 common shares (as restated for the split-ups of common stock, described below), with a $0.01 par value per share, to Leveret and Leveret contemporaneously contributed its direct and indirect ownership in the companies described in Note 1 to Aegean.
	On October 3, 2005, Aegean acquired from Leveret 8% of the total then-issued and outstanding common stock of Aegean, representing the entire interests in Leveret of members of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis' family (other than Mr. Melisanidis himself) for a price of $35,000. Those shares were cancelled upon repurchase, in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors of Aegean. The repurchased shares represented the entire beneficial ownership of those members of Mr. Melisanidis' family. The excess of the purchase price over the par value of the acquired shares was reflected first as a deduction from additional paid-in capital and, upon exhaustion of the balance of additional paid-in capital, as a deduction from retained earnings.
	Initial Public Offering
	In December 2006, the Company completed its initial public offering in the United States under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In this respect, 14,375,000 shares of common stock at par value $0.01 were issued for $14.00 per share. The proceeds of the initial public offering, net of underwriting commissions of $14,088, and net of offering expenses of $1,953, amounted to $185,209.
	Public offering
	On January 27, 2010, the Company completed a public offering in the United States under the United States Securities Act. In this respect, 4,491,900 shares of common stock at par value $0.01 were issued for $32.75 per share. The proceeds of the public offering, net of underwriting commissions of $7,355 and net of issuance cost of $707 amounted to $139,047.
	Treasury stock
	On May 17, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to purchase 1,000,000 shares from Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis. These shares were purchased on May 21, 2010, for an aggregate purchase price of $24,680, which has been recorded as Treasury Stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
	On July 20, 2011, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program for up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Board will review and may choose to renew the program after a period of 12 months. The Company under this program repurchased 967,639 shares during 2011 for an aggregate purchase price of $4,628 and 4,000 shares during 2012 for an aggregate purchase price of $19 which have been recorded as Treasury Stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
	Preferred Share Purchase Rights
	In August 2009, the Company authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") on each outstanding share of its common stock. The dividend distribution was made to shareholders of record as of August 14, 2009. The rights will separate from the common stock and become exercisable upon the earlier of (i) ten days following the public announcement or disclosure that a person or group (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired beneficial ownership, or obtained the right to acquire, 15 percent or more of the outstanding common stock or (ii) ten business days following the commencement of, or the announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in such a group or person becoming an Acquiring Person (the "Distribution Date"). On the Distribution Date, each Right holder will be entitled to purchase for $100 (the "Exercise Price") one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of junior participating preferred stock. In the event that an Acquiring Person acquires more than 15 percent of the outstanding common stock, each Right holder (except the Acquiring Person) will be entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price, shares of common stock having a market value equal to twice the Exercise Price. Any time after the date an Acquiring Person obtains more than 15 percent of the outstanding common shares and before that Acquiring Person acquires more than 50 percent of the outstanding common shares, the Company may exchange each Right owned by all other Rights holders, in whole or in part, for one common share. The Rights expire on the earliest of (i) August 14, 2019 or (ii) the redemption of the Rights by the Company or (iii) the exchange of the Rights as described above. The Company can redeem the Rights at any time on or prior to the earlier of the tenth business day following the public announcement that a person has acquired ownership of 15 percent or more of the outstanding common shares, or August 14, 2019. The Rights do not have any voting rights. The Rights have the benefit of certain customary anti-dilution protections. As of December 31, 2013, no such events had occurred, and no rights have been exercised.
	Dividends
	The Company declared and paid dividends of $1,864, $1,860 and $1,884 during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.
	Additional Paid in Capital
	The amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as additional paid-in capital comprise (i) payments made by the stockholders at various dates to finance vessel acquisitions in excess of the amounts of bank loans obtained and advances for working capital, (ii) the estimated value of certain incidental employee services provided to the Company by certain related companies for no consideration, (iii) an allocation of costs for office services historically shared with and the use of office equipment owned by related companies, and (iv) the difference between the par value of the shares issued in the initial and the secondary public offerings the net proceeds obtained for those shares.

Earnings Per Common Share [Abstract]	'
Earnings Per Common Share	'
	25.       Earnings Per Common Share:
	The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year using the two-class method. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the granting of non-vested share-based compensation awards (refer to Note 23), for which the assumed proceeds upon grant are deemed to be the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services and not yet recognized using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive.
	As of December 31, 2012 and 2013 the Company excluded 995,152 and 1,569,102, non-vested shares respectively,  as anti-dilutive. Non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) and participate equally in undistributed earnings are participating securities, and thus, are included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share.
	The treasury stock method is used in calculating diluted earnings per share for the Notes as the Company expects to settle the principal in cash.
	The components of the calculation of basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share are as follows:

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties.
The Company files income tax returns in the Canadian federal jurisdiction and various provincial jurisdictions, as well as the Belgian federal jurisdiction.

Business Segments and Geographical Information [Abstract]	'
Business Segments and Geographical Information	'
	27.       Business Segments and Geographical Information:
	The Company is primarily a physical supplier in the downstream marine petroleum products industry. Marine petroleum products mainly consist of different classifications of marine fuel oil, marine gas oil and lubricants.
	The Company cannot and does not identify expenses, profitability or other financial performance measures by type of marine petroleum product supplied, geographical area served, nature of services performed or on anything other than on a consolidated basis (although the Company is able to segregate revenues on these various bases). As a result, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results on a consolidated basis only. Therefore, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.
	The Company is domiciled in the Marshall Islands but provides no services in that location. It is impracticable to disclose revenues from external customers attributable to individual foreign countries because where the customer is invoiced is not necessarily the country of domicile. In addition, due to the nature of the shipping industry, where services are provided on a worldwide basis, the country of domicile of the customer does not provide useful information regarding the risk that this disclosure is intended to address.
	The Company's long-lived assets mainly consist of bunkering tankers, which are positioned across the Company's existing territories and which management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews on a periodic basis and reposition among the Company's existing or new territories to optimize the vessel per geographical territory ratio. The Company's vessels operate within or outside the territorial waters of each geographical location and, under international law, shipping vessels usually fall under the jurisdiction of the country of the flag they sail. The Company's vessels are not permanently located within particular territorial waters and the Company is free to mobilize all its vessels worldwide at its own discretion.

	28.  Sale of Subsidiary:
	On February 25, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party to sell its ownership interest (55.5%) in Aegean Oil Terminals (Panama). The remaining interest had been previously presented as a non-controlling interest on the consolidated financial statements. Under the terms of the agreement, an amount of $6,318 was paid to the Company. Also, an amount of $3,384 was distributed from Aegean Oil Terminals as dividends to Aegean and an amount of $2,713 to the non-controlling interest in accordance with the ownership interests. The Company's gain from the sale of its ownership interest in Aegean Oil Terminals is included in Gain on sale of subsidiary on the accompanying consolidated statement of income. The net effect of the cash received from the sale and the transfer of cash balances to the owners is reflected in Proceeds from Sale of subsidiary, net of cash surrendered in the investing activities of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
	Under a separate agreement with the purchaser, the Company simultaneously agreed to lease from the purchaser fuel storage facilities at the ports of Panama.

Significant_Accounting_Policie1

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2013
Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Principles of Consolidation	'
	Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, the accounts and operating results of the Company. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company consolidates subsidiaries where it holds a controlling financial interest or it has an interest in a variable interest entity (VIE). The condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of majority of the voting interest of over 50% of the outstanding voting shares or the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly affect the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. Noncontrolling interest in both equity and income statement of subsidiaries are stated separately.
Use of Estimates	'
	Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Transactions	'
	Foreign Currency Transactions: The functional currency of Aegean and its material subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar because the Company purchases and sells marine petroleum products in the international oil and gas markets and because the Company's vessels operate in international shipping markets; both of these international markets transact business primarily in U.S. dollars. The Company's accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are adjusted to reflect the year-end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are reflected separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The financial statements of the Company's subsidiaries with functional currencies other than U.S. dollars have been converted to U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities are translated using the period end exchange rate. Shareholders equity accounts are translated using historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated using the weighted average exchange rate in effect during the period. Exchange differences on the translation of entities with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar, are recognized directly in the foreign currency translation reserve as other comprehensive income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers highly liquid investments such as time deposits and certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash	'
	Restricted Cash: Restricted cash consists of interest-bearing deposits with certain banks as cash collateral against outstanding short-term facilities and retention accounts that can only be used for the purposes of repayment of current portions of long-term loans. Restricted cash also includes interest-bearing deposits with an international bank as cash collateral against standby letters of credit issued by the same bank to a shipyard. Restricted cash is classified as non-current when the funds are to be used to acquire non-current assets.
Trade Receivables, net	'
	Trade Receivables, net: Management is responsible for approving credit to customers, setting and maintaining credit standards, and managing the overall quality of the credit portfolio. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers based upon payment history and the assessments of customers' credit worthiness. The Company generally provides payment terms of approximately 30 days. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon its historical experience with its customers, current market conditions of its customers, and any specific customer collection issues. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Company had accounts receivable of $477,738, and $472,543 before allowances for bad debts of $3,503 and $2,622 as of December 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Allowances for doubtful accounts are summarized as follows:
		Allowances for doubtful accounts
	Balance, December 31, 2011	$    1,354
	- Additions	2,149
	Balance, December 31, 2012	$    3,503
	- Reductions	(881)
	Balance, December 31, 2013	$    2,622
	The Company transfers ownership of eligible trade accounts receivable to a third-party purchaser without recourse in exchange of cash. The factoring of trade accounts receivable under the agreement is accounted for as a sale. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the face value of the account less a discount. The receivables sold pursuant to this factoring agreement are excluded from trade receivables in the consolidated balance sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company continues to service, administer and collect the receivables sold under this program. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets as the Company estimates the fee it receives is at fair value. Servicing fees are recorded in the interest and finance costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Insurance Claims	'
	Insurance Claims: Insurance claims are recorded on the accrual basis once recovery is probable under the related insurance policies and the Company can make an estimate of the amount to be reimbursed. Insurance claims represent the claimable expenses, net of deductibles, incurred through December 31 of each year, which are expected to be recovered from insurance companies.
Inventories	'
	Inventories: Inventories comprise marine fuel oil ("MFO"), marine gas oil ("MGO"), lubricants and victualling stores, which are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first in, first out method. Inventory costs include expenditures directly incurred in bringing the inventory to its existing condition and location.
Vessel Cost	'
	Vessel Cost: Vessels are stated at cost, which consists of the contract price and any material expenses incurred upon acquisition (initial repairs, improvements and delivery expenses, interest and on-site supervision costs incurred during the construction periods). Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels; otherwise these amounts are charged to expense as incurred.
	Advances and milestone payments made to shipyards during construction periods are classified as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" until the date of delivery and acceptance of the vessel, at which date they are reclassified to "Vessels, cost". Advances for vessels under construction also include supervision costs, amounts paid under engineering contracts, capitalized interest and other expenses directly related to the construction of the vessels.
	Amounts of interest to be capitalized during the asset acquisition period are determined by applying an interest rate ("the capitalization rate") to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The capitalization rates used in an accounting period are based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period. The Company does not capitalize amounts in excess of actual interest expense incurred in the period. If the Company's financing plans associate a specific new borrowing with a qualifying asset, the Company uses the rate on that borrowing as the capitalization rate to be applied to that portion of the average accumulated expenditures for the asset that does not exceed the amount of that borrowing. If average accumulated expenditures for the asset exceed the amounts of specific new borrowings associated with the asset, the capitalization rate applied to such excess is a weighted average of the rates applicable to other borrowings of the Company.
	Vessels acquired as a part of an acquisition are recognized at their fair value as at the date of the acquisition.
Vessel Depreciation on Ocean- going Bunkering Tankers	'
	Vessel Depreciation on Ocean- going Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's bunkering and non-bunkering tankers to be 30 years and 25 years, respectively, from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's floating storage facilities to be 30 years from the date of acquisition. Secondhand vessels are depreciated from the date of their acquisition through their remaining estimated useful life. However, when regulations place limitations on the ability of a vessel to trade, its useful life is adjusted to end at the date such regulations become effective.
Vessel Depreciation on In-Land Waterway Bunkering Tankers	'
	Vessel Depreciation on In-Land Waterway Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the in-land waterway bunkering tankers to be 45 years from the date of the initial delivery from the shipyard.
Intangible Assets	'
	Intangible Assets: Intangible assets consist of three concession agreements, in the United Kingdom, the Canary Islands and Panama, one below market acquired time charter in the United States of America, and a non-compete covenant in Belgium. Concession agreements provide an exclusive right to perform bunkering operations at a specific port over a specified period of time. These assets are being amortized over their useful life.
	Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. These assets are being amortized over their useful life.
Goodwill	'
	Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the net of the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and the fair value of liabilities assumed in business acquisitions. As required by the goodwill topic of the FASB Accounting Standard Codification, goodwill is not amortized, but reviewed as of December 31 of each year for impairment. The Company also evaluates goodwill for impairment at any time that events occur or circumstances change indicating a possible impairment. The Company tests for goodwill impairment using the two-step process. The first step is a screen for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. Fair value of the reporting units is derived using discounted cash flow analysis.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	'
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: Accounting guidance requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used or to be disposed of by an entity, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In evaluating useful lives and carrying values of long-lived assets, the Company reviews certain indicators of potential impairment, such as vessel sale and purchase prices in the marketplace, business plans and overall market conditions. When the estimate of undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to be generated by the use of the asset and any future disposal is less than its carrying amount, the asset should be evaluated for an impairment loss. In developing estimates of future cash flows, the Company relied upon estimates made by management with regard to the Company's vessels, including future deliveries, operating expenses, and the estimated remaining useful lives of the vessels. These assumptions are based on historical trends as well as future expectations and are consistent with the plans and forecasts used by management to conduct its business. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions, including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions; therefore, the Company's accounting estimates might change from period to period. In the event that undiscounted projected net operating cash flows were less than carrying value, the Company would estimate the fair value of the related asset and record a charge to operations calculated by comparing the asset's carrying value to the estimated fair value. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as determined by management considering third-party valuations and discounted future cash flows attributable to the vessel or asset group. The Company regularly reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets. The Company had no impairment losses in any of the periods presented.
Accounting for Drydocking Costs	'
	Accounting for Drydocking Costs: The Company's vessels are generally required to be drydocked every 30 to 60 months for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are in operation. The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for drydocking costs whereby actual costs incurred are deferred and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking is scheduled to become due. Unamortized drydocking costs of vessels that are sold are written off against income in the year of the vessel's sale.
Leases	'
	Leases: Leases are classified as capital leases if they meet at least one of the following criteria: (i) the leased asset automatically transfers title at the end of the lease term; (ii) the lease contains a bargain purchase option; (iii) the lease term equals or exceeds 75% of the remaining estimated economic life of the leased asset; (iv) or the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90% of the excess of fair value of the leased property. If none of the above criteria is met, the lease is accounted for as an operating lease.
	The Company records vessels under capital leases as fixed assets at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease or the fair value of the vessel. Vessels under capital leases are amortized over the estimated remaining useful life of the vessel or until the end of the lease term, if shorter. Assets held under capital leases are presented as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" in the balance sheet until the vessel is deemed ready for its intended use and the balance is reclassified to "Vessels, cost". The current portion of capitalized lease obligations are reflected in the balance sheet in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and remaining long-term capitalized lease obligations are presented as "Other non-current liabilities".
Financing Costs	'
	Financing Costs: Fees incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing loans are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid or refinanced are generally expensed in the period the repayment or refinancing is made.
Convertible Senior Notes Policy	'
	Convertible Senior Notes: In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification guidance for convertible debt instruments that contain cash settlement options upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company determines the carrying amount of the liability and equity component of its convertible notes by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the embedded conversion option is determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds. The resulting debt discount is amortized to interest cost using the effective interest method over the period the debt is expected to be outstanding as an additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs associated with the instrument are allocated pro-rata between the debt and equity components.
Pension and Retirement Benefit Obligations	'
	Pension and Retirement Benefit Obligations: The vessel-owning companies included in the consolidation employ the crew on board under short-term contracts (usually up to nine months) and accordingly, they are not liable for any pension or post retirement benefits. The Company's full-time Greek employees are covered by state-sponsored pension funds for which the Company is required to contribute a portion of the monthly salary of these employees to the fund (i.e., a defined contribution plan). Upon retirement of these employees, the state-sponsored pension funds are responsible for paying the employees' retirement benefits and accordingly, the Company has no obligation for these benefits.
Accounting for Revenues and Expenses	'
	Accounting for Revenues and Expenses: Revenues are principally earned from the physical supply of marine petroleum products via the Company's bunkering tankers. In this respect, sales of marine petroleum products and cost of sales of marine petroleum products are recorded in the period when the marine petroleum products are loaded onto the customer's vessel. In Greece, revenues are earned from the sale of marine petroleum products through a related party physical supplier (refer to Note 5). These sales and the respective cost of sales are recorded in the period when the related party physical supplier delivers the marine petroleum products to the customer.
	For arrangements in which the Company physically supplies marine petroleum products via its own bunkering tankers, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents amounts paid by the Company for marine petroleum products sold in the period being reported on. For arrangements in which marine petroleum products are purchased from the Company's related party physical supplier, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents the total amount paid by the Company to the physical supplier for marine petroleum products and the delivery thereof to the Company's customer.
	Revenues are also generated from voyage agreements of the Company's vessels. Under a voyage charter the revenues and associated voyage costs are recognized over the duration of the voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the later of the completion of discharge of the vessel's previous cargo or upon vessel arrival to the agreed upon port based on the terms of a voyage contract and is not cancelable and voyage is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the delivered cargo.
	The Company also recognizes other revenues which mainly derive from brokerage and agency fees, throughput fees and storage fees. These revenues are recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured.
	Operating expenses are accounted for on the accrual basis. The selling and distribution expenses generally represent indirect expenses incurred for selling and distribution and related to the delivery of the products and services to the customers. The general and administrative expenses are presented separately and represent the administrative cost of managing the Company such as the office administrative personnel, the maintenance of the Company's office property, equipment and other fixed assets and its depreciation, and all the general office expenses, professional fees, travel expenses and utilities.
Repairs and Maintenance	'
	Repairs and Maintenance: All vessel repair and maintenance expenses, including major overhauling (which are non-scheduled repairs and maintenance work undertaken on a vessel's engine) and underwater inspections are expensed in the year incurred. Such costs are included in other operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, as required by the generally accepted accounting principles for income taxes reporting. Under this method deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities at each period end corresponding to those jurisdictions subject to income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary items and an offsetting valuation allowance is recorded to the extent that it is not more likely than not that the asset will be realized. Deferred tax is measured based on tax rates and laws enacted at the balance sheet date in any jurisdiction.
	Income tax regulations in the different countries in which the Company operates under which the Company's uncertain income tax positions are determined could be interpreted differently resulting in tax obligations differing from those currently presented. In this sense, the income tax returns of the Company's primary tax jurisdictions remain subject to examination by related tax authorities.
Earnings per Common Share	'
	Earnings per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares deemed outstanding during the year. Net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income less that amount allocable to non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents and participate equally in undistributed earnings. Non-vested share-based payment awards have no contractual obligations to share in the losses of the entity and are therefore excluded from the calculation of loss per share. Diluted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. Dilution has been computed by the treasury stock method whereby all of the Company's dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price of the Company's common stock during the relevant periods. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share computation. Non-vested shares are included in the calculation of the diluted earnings per shares, based on the weighted average number of non-vested shares assumed to be outstanding during the period.
Contingencies	'
	Contingencies: The Company accrues for a loss if the Company deems it probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company deems it reasonably possible that a liability has been incurred, the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the amount of loss is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Financial Instruments	'
	Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of the current financial assets and current financial liabilities reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate their respective fair values because of the short term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value of the revolving credit facilities is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for the floating rate loans and revolving credit facilities due to their variable  interest rate, being EURIBOR or LIBOR. LIBOR and EURIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating rate loans are considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. The Convertible Senior Notes have a fixed rate and their estimated fair values were determined through Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy (quoted price in the over-the counter-market). The estimated fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes at December 31, 2013, is approximately $91,317 compared to a carrying value net of finance charges of $70,825.
	The Company enters into derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in fuel and the interest rate risk deriving from its loan agreements. The derivative instruments are classified according to the accounting guidance provided by US generally accepted accounting principles for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company currently does not apply hedge accounting to its derivative instruments.
	Interest Rate Swap: Changes in the estimated fair value of the interest rate swap are recognized as components of interest and finance costs in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the contract is recorded in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in non-current liabilities.
	Fuel Pricing Contracts: Changes in the estimated fair value of the fuel pricing contracts are recognized as components of cost of revenue in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the outstanding fuel pricing contracts is presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in current assets/liabilities. The Company classifies cash flows related to derivative financial instruments within cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
	For more information on the Company's derivatives, see Note 16.
	Gains/Losses on sale of subsidiary: Gains or losses that result from a loss of a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary are recorded in earnings and are classified as nonoperating gains and losses.

	Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
	There are no recent accounting pronouncements effective for the current period whose adoption would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements in the current period.

Legal Matters [Abstract]	'
Legal matters	'Legal Matters: In November 2005, an unrelated party filed a declaratory action against one of the Company's subsidiaries before the First Instance Court of Piraeus, Greece. The plaintiff asserted that he was instrumental in the negotiation of the Company's eight-year Fuel Purchase Agreement with a government refinery in Jamaica and sought a judicial affirmation of his alleged contractual right to receive a commission of $0.01 per metric ton of marine fuel over the term of the contract. In December 2008, the First Instance Court of Piraeus dismissed the plaintiff's action as vague and inadmissible, however the Company appealed that decision on the grounds that there was no contract between the Company and the plaintiff and that the court lacked jurisdiction. While the action was pending in Greece, the plaintiff commenced a new action involving the same cause of action before the Commercial Court of Paris, France, which dismissed that action in June 2009. The plaintiff's appeal of the dismissal was denied by the Paris Court of Appeal in February 2010. In January 2012, the plaintiff commenced a new action relating to the same allegations before the Commercial Court of Paris, which was dismissed on June 27, 2012 in favor of the competence and jurisdiction of the Greek courts. In July 2012, the plaintiff filed a "contredit," an appeal procedure under French law. On November 2013, the Court held that the matter is not pending in Greece that would allow the French courts to decline jurisdiction to the benefit of the Greek proceedings. As a consequence the case is to return to the Commercial Court of Paris which should have to examine the admissibility of Mr Varouxis' claim in France. The Company believes that this matter fails for lack of jurisdiction and is unwarranted and lacking in merit. The Company believes that the outcome of this lawsuit will not have a material effect on its operations and financial position. In May 2013, on the order of STX Corporation ('STX Corp.') we supplied bunkers to the vessel UNICO SIENNA in the Port of Singapore. The invoice for those bunkers totaled approximately $323. STX Corp. has filed for reorganization in Korea, and has filed for protection under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Company believes that has maritime liens against this vessel, and has arrested the UNICO SIENNA in Panama to enforce its maritime lien against it. The Company intends to exercise its remedies for recovery of the unpaid amounds and believes that it will recover the full amount due. Various claims, suits, and complains, including those involving government regulations and product liability, arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers and agents and insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company's vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Environmental And Other Liabilities [Abstract]	'
Environmental and Other Liabilities	'Environmental and Other Liabilities: The Company accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the Company's exposure. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company's Protection and Indemnity ("P&I") insurance policies cover third-party liability and other expenses related to injury or death of crew, passengers and other third-parties, loss or damage of cargo, claims arising from collisions with other vessels, damage to other third-party property, and pollution arising from oil or other substances. The Company's coverage under the P&I insurance policies, except for pollution, are unlimited. Coverage for pollution is $1 billion per vessel per incident.

Preferred Share Purchase Rights [Abstract]	'
Preferred share purchase rights	'In August 2009, the Company authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a 'Right') on each outstanding share of its common stock. The dividend distribution was made to shareholders of record as of August 14, 2009. The rights will separate from the common stock and become exercisable upon the earlier of (i) ten days following the public announcement or disclosure that a person or group (an 'Acquiring Person') has acquired beneficial ownership, or obtained the right to acquire, 15 percent or more of the outstanding common stock or (ii) ten business days following the commencement of, or the announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in such a group or person becoming an Acquiring Person (the 'Distribution Date'). On the Distribution Date, each Right holder will be entitled to purchase for $100 (the 'Exercise Price') one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of junior participating preferred stock. In the event that an Acquiring Person acquires more than 15 percent of the outstanding common stock, each Right holder (except the Acquiring Person) will be entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price, shares of common stock having a market value equal to twice the Exercise Price. Any time after the date an Acquiring Person obtains more than 15 percent of the outstanding common shares and before that Acquiring Person acquires more than 50 percent of the outstanding common shares, the Company may exchange each Right owned by all other Rights holders, in whole or in part, for one common share. The Rights expire on the earliest of (i) August 14, 2019 or (ii) the redemption of the Rights by the Company or (iii) the exchange of the Rights as described above. The Company can redeem the Rights at any time on or prior to the earlier of the tenth business day following the public announcement that a person has acquired ownership of 15 percent or more of the outstanding common shares, or August 14, 2019. The Rights do not have any voting rights. The Rights have the benefit of certain customary anti-dilution protections. As of December 31, 2013, no such events had occurred, and no rights have been exercised.
