Notes due 2022</B></P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">Hamilton, Bermuda -&nbsp;February 13, 2017-&nbsp;Golar LNG Limited
(the &quot;Company&quot;) (NASDAQ:GLNG) announces today that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $350
million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the &quot;Notes&quot;) in a private placement to qualified
institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &quot;Securities Act&quot;). The Company
also intends to grant the initial purchasers of the Notes&nbsp;a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $52.5 million aggregate
principal amount of the Notes in connection with the offering, solely to cover overallotments.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company,
pay interest semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, mature on February 15, 2022, and be convertible into the Company's
common shares, cash, or a combination of shares and cash, at the Company's election.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the
sale of the Notes to fund the cost of the initial capped call transactions described below and use the remaining funds for other
general corporate purposes.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Company also intends
to enter into capped call transactions with one or more of the initial purchasers of the Notes or their affiliates (the &quot;option
counterparties&quot;).&nbsp; The capped call transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common
shares upon and/or offset the cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes,
with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. &nbsp;If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional
Notes, the&nbsp;Company may enter into additional capped&nbsp;call transactions with the option counterparties. &nbsp;In connection
with establishing their initial hedge of the&nbsp;capped call&nbsp;transactions, the Company expects that the option counterparties
will enter into various&nbsp;derivative transactions with respect to the Company's common shares concurrently with or shortly after&nbsp;the
pricing of the Notes and may unwind these various derivative transactions and purchase the&nbsp;Company's common shares in open
market transactions shortly following the pricing of the Notes. These activities could have the&nbsp;effect of increasing, or reducing
the size&nbsp;of a decline in, the market price of the Company's common shares or&nbsp;Notes&nbsp;concurrently with, or shortly
following, the pricing of the Notes. In addition, the option counterparties (and/or their respective affiliates) may modify their
hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Company's common shares and/or purchasing
or selling the Company's common shares or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing
of the notes and prior to the maturity of the notes. &nbsp;Any of these activities could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease
in the market price of the Company's common shares or the Notes.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy the Notes, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom,
such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offer of the Notes will be made only by means of a private offering
memorandum.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">The Notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion
of the Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction
and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements under the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws.</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0"><B>Forward-Looking Statements</B></P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0">This press release contains certain forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements.&nbsp;
The words &quot;believe,&quot; &quot;anticipate,&quot; &quot;intend,&quot; &quot;estimate,&quot; &quot;forecast,&quot; &quot;project,&quot;
&quot;plan,&quot; &quot;potential,&quot; &quot;may,&quot; &quot;should,&quot; &quot;expect,&quot; &quot;pending&quot; and similar
