Bermuda-based owner and operator of floating LNG liquefaction vessels (FLNG), converting stranded offshore gas into exportable LNG.
Bermuda-based owner and operator of floating LNG liquefaction vessels (FLNG), converting stranded offshore gas into exportable LNG.
Earns from long-term charters on which customers pay a daily fee, with some contracts adding upside tied to commodity prices, so a few contracts carry the business. Gimi serves a BP-led project off Mauritania and Senegal, and Hilli serves Cameroon. New vessels are converted against signed contracts.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, installed base). Pioneer in FLNG conversion technology with few shipyards/operators able to match its track record.
