Company Overview

Golar LNG Limited is a Bermuda-based energy infrastructure company focused on the development, ownership and operation of floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facilities. The company converts LNG carriers into floating production units that liquefy natural gas offshore, allowing gas resources to be developed without the need for large onshore liquefaction plants.

Golar’s activities include FLNG project development, vessel ownership and operations, and related LNG infrastructure services. Its floating facilities are designed to receive natural gas from offshore fields, process and liquefy the gas, store the resulting LNG and transfer it to conventional LNG carriers for delivery to international markets. The company also has experience in LNG shipping and marine energy infrastructure.

Golar’s projects have served gas developments in regions including West Africa. Its Hilli Episeyo FLNG facility operates offshore Cameroon, while the company has also developed the Gimi FLNG facility for the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim gas project offshore Mauritania and Senegal. Golar LNG is led by Chief Executive Officer Karl-Fredrik Staubo.
