Golar LNG senior vice president and head of shipping Marius Foss resigned from the Tor Olav Troim-led company this week, amid talk that he will be joining a rival outfit.

LNG industry mobiles were alive with talk that Foss, who is well-known in the sector’s chartering circles, has accepted a similar position at John Frediksen's Flex LNG.

Foss declined to comment when contacted by TradeWinds.
