GOLAR LNG and PTTEP agreement

Agreement in principle has also been reached on the commercial structuring of the Australian FLNG project which provides for Golar to participate in the gas value chain on a 50:50 basis with PTTEP. It is intended that Golar will farm into the gas reserves held by PTTEP resulting from its recent acquisition of Coogee Resources Limited.
 
Golar recently announced that it intended to restructure the Company to form a subsidiary company that will be focused on project development, both FSRU projects and liquefaction projects. The development of this FLNG opportunity will clearly form an important part of this new Company. In due course the new Company will likely raise additional capital and will seek a separate listing. We see great opportunities for Golar to play an important part in developing the LNG market by providing new technology and flexible mid stream solutions to meet the needs of our close customers. Such a development should be highly beneficial for Golar's shareholders.
