Highlights for the quarter included the US$ 310 million purchase of a limited recourse facility to fund the Lampung floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) and mooring project in Indonesia.
The company was also awarded a pre-front-end engineering and design (pre-FEED) study for a jetty-moored barge floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) export project in North America and a pre-FEED study for an offshore moored FLNG project in Australia.
Other activities included the charter for LNG Libra being extended by 13 months by Natural Gas Fenosa (NGF) and the sale of the Höegh LNG carrier Norman Lady.
