ability to operate and control its vessels; change in the financial stability of clients of the Company; Höegh LNG’s ability to win upcoming

tenders and securing employment for the FSRUs on order; changes in Höegh LNG’s ability to convert LNG carriers to FSRUs including

the cost and time of completing such conversions; changes in Höegh LNG’s ability to complete and deliver projects awarded; increases in

the Company’s cost base; changes in the availability of vessels to purchase; failure by yards to comply with delivery schedules; changes

to vessels’ useful lives; changes in the ability of Höegh LNG to obtain additional financing, in particular, currently, in connection with the

turmoil in financial markets; the success in achieving commercial success for the projects being developed by the Company; changes in

over the next five years…

Production Demand

Potential FSRU clients

… driven by fuel substitution and increased electricity generation from

natural gas …

LNG prices follow oil prices

For countries looking to replace expensive oil products with natural gas; LNG is the

most competitive substitute

For countries looking to replace pollutive coal with LNG; lower LNG prices makes

this decision easier

Egypt expected to import 75 cargos over

the next two years – all imported through

FSRU Höegh Gallant

China expected to continue to increase

their LNG import over the next five years

and due to short schedule FSRUs are

needed

Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia,

Lebanon and Ghana all need to increase

their power generation capacity – at

current LNG prices their LNG import

projects are clearly more likely to

materialize

HLNG barge based FLNG

Source: IHS Cera

High cost LNG export projects (1500 USD/ton+) likely to be delayed and redesigned to

reduce project cost

Long term prospects for FLNG are still positive due to lower capex, smaller volumes to be

sold, lower unit cost and generally higher flexibility compared to land based export

projects
