GasLog taps Bruno Larsen to lead FSRU development

LNG player GasLog has tapped Bruno Larsen as its head of floating, storage and regasification unit (FSRU) development.

Larsen, a 30-year veteran in oil and gas, has held a number of senior LNG roles at WorleyParsons, BW Offshore, Hamworthy, Hoegh LNG and Total.

GasLog said in a release it is currently evaluating a number of FSRU opportunities as well as undertaking a front-end engineering and design study at the Keppel shipyard in Singapore. The study is focused on the potential conversion of GasLog’s and GasLog Partners LP’s existing steam and tri-fuel diesel electric LNG carriers into FSRU vessels.

Paul Wogan, GasLog ceo, commented, “Given the significant volumes of new LNG production due to come online over the next few years, we expect FSRUs will play an increasingly important role in creating new markets for LNG. Bruno’s knowledge and experience will further enhance GasLog’s capabilities as we move into this growing sector of the market.”
