Notification of share repurchase

The Board of Golar LNG Energy Limited ("Golar Energy" "Company") has approved a
share buy back programme for the acquisition of up 5,000,000 shares to reduce
the Company's capital. The Board believes the Company's shares are trading at a
significant discount and therefore a buy back program also represents good value
for shareholders.



The shares will be bought over a period not exceeding 3 months and at a price
not exceeding NOK 10. The shares will be retained as treasury shares. Given the
current low liquidity level the Company's purchases may exceed 25% of the
average daily number of shares traded. This statement is given in line with the
requirements of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act of 2007.
