Floating Regasification

FSRU and FSU deployment for importing markets that require fast-to-market LNG import infrastructure without permanent onshore terminals. From site assessment through EPCIC feasibility and owner's representation, GLSB covers the technical and commercial lifecycle.

FSRU & FSU Solutions

Floating Storage Regasification Units (FSRUs) combine LNG storage with onboard regasification, delivering natural gas directly to onshore pipeline networks via a high-pressure gas export system. Floating Storage Units (FSUs) provide dedicated storage, operating alongside a separate regasification vessel or onshore facility.

Both configurations reduce capital exposure compared to onshore terminals and can be repositioned as market conditions change. Sendout capacity ranges from 50 to 500 MMSCFD depending on FSRU size, with storage between 125,000 and 170,000 m³ of LNG.

Two Deployment Modes

Gas Port Mooring

Nearshore Configuration

  • Sheltered waters — lower sea-state tolerance required
  • Suitable for integration with existing port infrastructure
  • Shorter jetty and pipeline connections to shore
  • Preferred where calm coastal conditions prevail
  • Typically used in port-adjacent locations with existing breakwaters or natural shelter
Gateway Mooring

Offshore Configuration

  • Offshore deployment — higher sea-state tolerance
  • Accommodates larger LNG carrier vessels
  • Subsea gas export pipeline to onshore tie-in point
  • Greater flexibility in siting — not constrained by port approach
  • Better suited to exposed coasts or locations without natural shelter

How We Engage

GLSB participates across the full project lifecycle — from early-stage feasibility through to operational handover — depending on client requirements and project structure.

Full EPC

Subcontractor

Technical delivery of FSRU or FSU sub-systems within a client-led EPC structure.

Owner's Engineer

Independent technical oversight on the asset owner's behalf — FEED review, HAZOP participation, commissioning readiness.

Feasibility Studies

Pre-FEED site assessment, mooring configuration selection, technology comparison, and financial modelling.
