President and CEO of Höegh LNG Sveinung J.S. Støhle comments:
“I am proud to report that Höegh LNG’s employees continue to deliver under these unprecedented circumstances caused by COVID-19, as shown by our financial and operational results, meaning Höegh LNG is experiencing limited operational impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. While the COVID-19 crisis has caused major disruptions and uncertainties to the energy markets, the demand for FSRUs does not appear to have been significantly affected, as can be seen by the selection of Höegh LNG as preferred bidder for two new FSRU projects in the quarter.”
