Nakilat has seen its profit for the first half of 2017 decline but it remains focused on the steady growth of its operations.

The Qatari LNG carrier owner reported a net profit of QAR 409m ($112.3m), compared to QAR 501m in the corresponding period of last year.

Nakilat’s results comes hot on the heels of an FSRU partnership with Hoegh LNG, announced last week.
