Nasdaq-listed Golar LNG Partners has spent NOK 353m ($41.62m) on buying back some of its Norwegian bonds.

The LNG carrier company said another NOK 329m remains outstanding and matures this year.

The move comes after a February Oslo bond sale that saw it raise $250m.

This matures in 2021 with interest of Libor plus 6.25%.

It said at the time that proceeds would be partly used to refinance existing bonds.
