We design, build, own, and operate marine infrastructure for the liquefaction and regasification of LNG. As of September 30, 2022, our fleet was comprised of two LNG carriers (one is contracted for conversion to a Floating Storage Regasification Unit (“FSRU”) subject to receipt of notice to proceed and subsequent sale, and one vessel is earmarked for conversion to a Floating Liquefaction Natural Gas vessel (“FLNG”)) and two FLNGs (the operational Hilli and the Gimi, which is currently under conversion to a FLNG).
