GasLog Appoints Bruno Larsen to Head FSRU
GasLog Ltd has appointed Bruno Larsen as head of floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) development.
Larsen has previous experience in both the LNG and FSRU sectors, and will take the lead in the company’s commercial FSRU activities. He has previously served in senior roles for WorleyParsons, BW Offshore, Hamworthy, Hoegh LNG and Total.
GasLog is currently evaluating a number of FSRU opportunities as well as undertaking a front-end engineering and design (FEED) 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.
Larsen said: “I am delighted to join GasLog, one of the leading LNG transportation companies in the world. GasLog has the technical expertise and the platform to become a leading player in the FSRU market and I am excited around the future opportunities for the company.”
Paul Wogan, Chief Executive Officer of GasLog Ltd. commented, “We are very happy to welcome Bruno to GasLog to lead our FSRU development. He brings a wealth of experience and joins us at an exciting time in the development of the FSRU market."
Paul added: "Given the significant volumes of new LNG production due to come online over the next few years, we expect FSRU’s 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.”
