CEO Comment
"We are pleased to announce the ordering of Golar’s 4th FLNG. We believe this order, combining the world’s earliest available FLNG delivery and Golar’s operational track record, is well positioned to provide prospective clients with an attractive gas monetization solution, whilst driving value for Golar. This order strengthens Golar’s position as the market leading owner of FLNGs, increasing our controlled liquefaction capacity by 41% to above 12 MTPA, with potential to increase our earnings potential by ~50% if chartered at similar terms to its sister vessel the FLNG Esperanza.
Operationally we are very pleased to have completed Hilli’s initial contract with a market leading 100% uptime throughout the 8-year contract. We would like to thank our project partners SNH and Perenco for the solid cooperation and we are motivated to hopefully work together again on gas monetization projects in Cameroon in the future. We are also very pleased with the operational performance of the FLNG Gimi, producing 15% above contracted capacity during warmer ambient temperatures in summer months in Mauritania and Senegal. We look forward to getting to start-up of operations in Argentina once FLNG Hilli has conducted modification works in Singapore and FLNG Esperanza has completed her conversion. Both projects remain on time and on budget."
