Discussions between the parties during the last six months have not led to further progress being made.
Commenting on the talks with the NOC, Chief Executive Officer of FLEX LNG Management Ltd, Philip Fjeld stated: “We are of course disappointed that we have not been able to bring the project to a successful conclusion.
