The company is characterized as an entrepreneurial owner-operator with its management and key people having long histories in the (floating) LNG industry. Management is hands-on and very much involved in a flat organization. We have short communication lines and strong mandates, and we work with integrated, multi-disciplinary teams. Our people are pro-active with an all-round mentality. We strive to be solution-oriented and quick, but we are not afraid to challenge and ask questions. We nurture trust and collaboration with our partners and contractors and use mutual interests to ensure we execute at low cost and competitive schedules. Candidates that are attracted to this type of organization and appreciate an integrated collaboration are most welcome to apply.

Delfin Midstream is a private US company that owns the “Delfin LNG Project”. Delfin LNG is an LNG export project offshore Louisiana which uses floating LNG technology to produce LNG from US natural gas. The project completed all permitting work and has secured major commercial agreements with LNG buyers. The technical, execution and pre-ops team is located in Norway and is responsible for all development work and the execution of the project, with additional teams in the US and at the shipyard. With construction to commence later this year and developing additional FLNG projects, the company is looking for new employees to join Delfin Norway AS. For more general information :
