Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
General Information and Basis of Presentation | 1. General Information and Basis of Presentation General Information Navigator Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”), the ultimate parent company of the Navigator Group of companies, is registered in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The Company has a core business of owning and operating a fleet of liquefied gas carriers. As of June 30, 2024, the Company owned and operated 56 gas carriers (the “Vessels”) each having a cargo capacity of between 3,770 cbm and 38,000 cbm, of which 25 were ethylene and ethane-capable vessels. The Company entered into a joint venture (the “Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture”) with Greater Bay Gas Co. Ltd. (“Greater Bay Gas”) in September 2022, which joint venture entity has acquired two 17,000 cbm, 2018-built ethylene-capable liquefied gas carriers and three 22,000 cbm, 2019-built ethylene capable liquefied gas carriers. The vessels are currently commercially managed through the in-house Luna Pool and technically managed by a third party, PG Shipmanagement of Singapore. The Company owns a 50% share, through a joint venture (the “Export Terminal Joint Venture”), of an ethylene export marine terminal at Morgan’s Point, Texas on the Houston Ship Channel ( the “Ethylene Export Terminal”), capable of exporting in excess of one million tons of ethylene per year. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in the consolidated financial statements to “our”,” we” and “us” refer to the Company. Basis of Presentation These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and related Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, operating results and cash flows have been included in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the “2023 Annual Report”). The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any other future periods. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIE”) for which the Company is a primary beneficiary and are also consolidated (please read Note 14—Variable Interest Entities for additional information). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The results of operations are subject to seasonal and other fluctuations and are therefore not necessarily indicative of results that may otherwise be expected for the entire year. Management has evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after these financial statements are issued. As part of the assessment, management has considered the following: • our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available and forecasted future cash flows; • the severity and duration of any world events and armed conflicts, including the Russian-Ukraine war, conflicts in the Israel-Gaza region and the potential for broader conflict in the Middle East involving Iran and other nations, and associated repercussions to supply and demand for oil and gas and the economy generally as well as possible effects of trade disruptions; • environmental regulations such as those affecting vessels' Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (“EEXI”); and • the total capital contributions required for the Terminal Expansion Project (as defined below). Management has determined that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. In September 2025, which is outside the 12-month going concern period, the Company has debt obligations falling due, including a $210 million secured term facility with a balloon repayment of $136.0 million and the maturity of our unsecured 2020 Bonds in an amount of $91 million. The Company is planning to refinance the secured term facility and the 2020 Bonds, however if t he Company’s refinancing efforts are not successful there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity and its financial position. A discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies can be found in the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2023 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to these policies in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Recent Accounting Pronouncements New accounting standards issued as of June 30, 2024 may affect future reporting by Navigator Holdings Ltd . |

Derivative Instruments Accounted for at Fair Value | 7. Derivative Instruments Accounted for at Fair Value The following table includes the estimated fair value of those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024. December 31, 2023 June 30, 2024 (in thousands) Fair Value Hierarchy Level Fair Value Asset Fair Value Asset Interest rate swap agreements Level 2 $14,674 $12,647 The Company uses derivative instruments in accordance with its overall risk management policy to mitigate the risk of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rate movements. The Company held no derivatives designated as hedges as of December 31, 2023 or June 30, 2024. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The fair value accounting standard establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value: Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. Interest Rate risk The Company has a number of existing vessel loan facilities with associated fixed interest rate swaps. As of June 30, 2024, the interest rate swaps had a positive fair value to the Company of $12.6 million (December 31, 2023, a positive fair value to the Company of $14.7 million). There were unrealized losses of $1.6 million on the fair value of the swaps for the three months ended June 30, 2024 (three months ended June 30, 2023, an unrealized gain of $3.2 million). There were unrealized losses of $2.0 million on the fair value of the swaps for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (six months ended June 30, 2023, an unrealized loss of $1.1 million). These fixed interest rate swaps are typically entered into with the financial institutions which are lenders under on the loan facilities. The interest rate payable by the Company under these interest rate swap agreements is between 0.3615% and 2.137%. The interest rate receivable by the Company under these interest rate swap agreements is 3-month SOFR, calculated on a 360-day year basis and which resets every three months. All interest rate swaps above are remeasured to fair value at each reporting date and have been categorized as level two on the fair value measurement hierarchy. The remeasurement to fair value has no impact on the cash flows at the reporting date. There is no requirement for cash collateral to be placed with the swap providers under these swap agreements and there is no effect on restricted cash as of June 30, 2024. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate risk All foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are revalued and are reported in the Company’s functional currency based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period. These foreign currency transactions fluctuate based on the strength of the U.S. Dollar. The remeasurement of all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities at each reporting date results in unrealized foreign currency exchange differences which do not impact our cash flows. Credit risk The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to its interest rate swap agreements. As of June 30, 2024, the Company is exposed to credit risk as the interest rate swaps were in an asset position from the perspective of the Company. In order to minimize counterparty risk, the Company only enters into derivative transactions with counterparties that are reputable financial institutions, highly rated by a recognized rating agency. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is the estimated amount that we would pay/receive to sell or transfer the swap at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current credit worthiness of the swap counterparties. The estimated amount is the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for credit risk. The Company transacts all of these derivative instruments through investment-grade rated financial institutions at the time of the transaction. The amount recorded as a derivative asset or liability could vary by a material amount in the near term if credit markets are volatile or if credit risk were to change significantly. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements at the end of each period is most significantly affected by the interest rate implied by the benchmark interest yield curve, including its relative steepness. Interest rates and foreign exchange rates have experienced significant volatility in recent years in both the short and long term. While the fair value of our swap agreements is typically more sensitive to changes in short-term rates, significant changes in long-term benchmark interest, foreign exchange rates and the credit risk of the counterparties of the Company also materially impact the fair values of our swap agreements. |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Accounted For at Fair Value | 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Accounted for at Fair Value The principal financial assets of the Company as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, consist of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash and accounts receivable. The principal financial liabilities of the Company as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, consist of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, secured term loan facilities, revolving credit facilities and the 2020 Bonds and do not include deferred financing costs. The carrying values of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short-term nature or liquidity of these financial instruments. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The fair value accounting standard establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value: Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. The 2020 Bonds are classified as a level two liability and the fair values have been calculated based on the most recent trades of the bond on the Oslo Børs prior to June 30, 2024. These trades are infrequent and therefore not considered to be an active market. The fair value of secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities is estimated to approximate the carrying value in the balance sheet since they bear a variable interest rate, which is reset quarterly. This has been categorized at level two on the fair value measurement hierarchy as of June 30, 2024. The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities where the fair value approximate carrying value. The table excludes cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities because the fair value approximates carrying value and, for accounts receivable and payable, are due in one year or less.

Share options Share options issued under the 2013 Plan are exercisable between the third and tenth anniversary of the grant date, after which they lapse. The fair value of any option issued is calculated on the date of the grant based on the Black-Scholes valuation model. Expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors.

Leases [Abstract] | |
Operating Lease Liabilities | 12. Operating Lease Liabilities The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet includes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding liability for operating lease contracts where the Company is a lessee. The discount rate used to measure the lease liability presented on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet is the incremental cost of borrowing since the rate implicit in the lease cannot be determined. The liabilities described below are for the Company’s offices in London, Gdynia, Copenhagen and Houston which are denominated in various currencies. At June 30, 2024, the weighted average discount rate across the four leases was 2.93% (December 31, 2023: 2.95%). At June 30, 2024, based on the remaining lease liabilities, the weighted average remaining operating lease term was 2.46 years (December 31, 2023: 3.17 years ). Under ASC 842, the ROU asset is a non-monetary asset and is remeasured into the Company’s reporting currency using the exchange rate for the applicable currency as at the adoption date of ASC 842. The operating lease liability is a monetary liability and is remeasured quarterly using current exchange rates, with changes recognized in a manner consistent with other foreign currency-denominated liabilities within general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. A maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows of the Company’s operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, is presented in the following table: December 31, 2023 June 30, 2024 (in thousands) One year $ 1,027 $ 1,327 Two years 1,279 1,143 Three years 1,066 1,801 Four years 1,274 — Total undiscounted operating lease commitments 4,646 4,271 Less: Discount adjustment (232) (170) Total operating lease liabilities 4,414 4,101 Less: current portion (914) (1,234) Operating lease liabilities, non-current portion $ 3,500 $ 2,867 |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Company has consolidated 100% of PT Navigator Khatulistiwa, a VIE for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, i.e. it has a controlling financial interest in this entity with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and has the right to residual gains or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company owns 49% of PT Navigator Khatulistiwa common stock, all of its secured debt and has voting control. All economic interests in the residual net assets reside with the Company. By virtue of the accounting principle of consolidation, transactions between PT Navigator Khatulistiwa and the Company are eliminated on consolidation. In October 2019, the Company entered into a sale and leaseback to refinance one of its vessels , Navigator Aurora, with OCY Aurora Ltd., a Maltese limited liability company. OCY Aurora Ltd. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ocean Yield Malta Limited, whose parent is Ocean Yield ASA, a listed company on the Oslo stock exchange. The Company does not hold any shares or voting rights in OCY Aurora Ltd. Under U.S. GAAP the entity, OCY Aurora Ltd, is considered to be a VIE. As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2024, the Company has consolidated 100% of OCY Aurora Ltd., the lessor variable interest entity (‘‘lessor VIE’’). We have leased Navigator Aurora from OCY Aurora Ltd. under a sale and leaseback arrangement. The lessor VIE is a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) wholly owned by OCY Aurora Ltd. a financial institution. The Company has concluded that it has a variable interest in the SPV because the bareboat charter has fixed price call options to acquire the Navigator Aurora from the SPV at various dates throughout the 13 year lease/bareboat charter term, commencing from the fifth year, initially at USD 44.8 million. The call options are considered to be variable interests as each option effectively transfers substantially all of the rewards from N avigator Aurora to us and limits the SPV’s ability to benefit from the rewards of ownership. The Company has performed an analysis and concluded that we exercise power through the exercise of the call options in the lease agreement. The call options, although not an activity of the SPV, if exercised would significantly impact the SPV’s economic performance as the SPV owns no other revenue generating assets. The options transfer to the Company the right to receive benefits as they are agreed at a predetermined price. The SPV is protected from decreases in the value of the vessel, as if the vessel’s market value were to decline, the call option provides the SPV protection up to the point where it would not be economically viable for the Company to exercise the option. In addition, the Company has the power to direct decisions over the activities and care of the vessel which directly impact its value such as for the day-to-day commercial, technical management and operation of the vessel. Following the above, the SPV is categorized under U.S. GAAP as a VIE and the Company has concluded it is the primary beneficiary and must therefore consolidate the SPV within its financial statements. We own a 25% and 40% share in equity of Navigator Crewing Services Philippines Inc. (“NCSPI”, “Navigator Crewing”) and Navigator Gas Services Philippines Inc. (“NSSPI”), respectively. These companies were established primarily to provide marine services as principals or agents to ship owners, ship operators, managers engaged in international maritime business and business support services, respectively. The Company has determined that it has a variable interest in NCSPI and NSSPI and is considered to be the primary beneficiary as a result of having a controlling financial interest in the entities and has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact NCSPI’s and NSSPI’s economic performance. As of June 30, 2024, the Company's VIE’s had total assets and liabilities of $171.0 million and $58.7 million respectively which have been included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of that date (December 31, 2023: $179.8 million and $61.4 million, respectively). |

Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and related Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, operating results and cash flows have been included in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the “2023 Annual Report”). The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any other future periods. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIE”) for which the Company is a primary beneficiary and are also consolidated (please read Note 14—Variable Interest Entities for additional information). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The results of operations are subject to seasonal and other fluctuations and are therefore not necessarily indicative of results that may otherwise be expected for the entire year. Management has evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after these financial statements are issued. As part of the assessment, management has considered the following: • our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available and forecasted future cash flows; • the severity and duration of any world events and armed conflicts, including the Russian-Ukraine war, conflicts in the Israel-Gaza region and the potential for broader conflict in the Middle East involving Iran and other nations, and associated repercussions to supply and demand for oil and gas and the economy generally as well as possible effects of trade disruptions; • environmental regulations such as those affecting vessels' Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (“EEXI”); and • the total capital contributions required for the Terminal Expansion Project (as defined below). Management has determined that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. |
