Golar LNG is evaluating strategic alternatives and hired Goldman Sachs as a financial adviser.

Golar said Wednesday that the goal of the review is to accelerate the floating liquefied natural gas growth pipeline, as it aims to become a pure-play FLNG company.

The review would include a comprehensive evaluation of Golar's platform, including its FLNG technology, contract backlog and growth pipeline.

Potential alternatives to be explored include a sale of the company, merger, divestiture of assets, or further structure optimization.

There is no set timetable for the review, Golar said.

How we approach editorial content

Maintaining independence and editorial freedom is essential to our mission of empowering investor success. We provide a platform for our authors to report on investments fairly, accurately, and from the investor’s point of view. We also respect individual opinions––they represent the unvarnished thinking of our people and exacting analysis of our research processes. Our authors can publish views that we may or may not agree with, but they show their work, distinguish facts from opinions, and make sure their analysis is clear and in no way misleading or deceptive.

To further protect the integrity of our editorial content, we keep a strict separation between our sales teams and authors to remove any pressure or influence on our analyses and research.
