Exhibit 99.1

PRELIMINARY FOURTH QUARTER AND FINANCIAL YEAR 2007 RESULTS

Highlights

Results

Golar LNG Limited reports a net income of $2.7 million and operating income of $24.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007 (the “fourth quarter”). Operating income is significantly improved from $18.9 million for three months ended September 30, 2007 (the “third quarter”) as a result of improved vessel utilization and charter rates, but net income has again been impacted by an unrealised non-cash loss on interest rate swap valuations of $8.3m.

Revenues in the fourth quarter are increased at $61.3 million up from $54.3 million in the third quarter. The increase is primarily attributable to improved utilization and charter rates for the vessels trading in the spot market. The Golar Spirit entered the shipyard on October 1, 2007 for its conversion. Fourth quarter average daily time charter equivalent rates (TCE’s) were $57,613 per day compared to $47,262 per day during the third quarter.

Vessel operating expenses were higher at $13.7 million for the fourth quarter as compared to $12.5 million for the third quarter. It should be noted that the Golar Spirit continues to have operating expenses charged to the income statement whilst it is in the shipyard and will also continue to be depreciated during this period. Administrative expenses at $4.6 million were down on last quarters $5.0 million.

Net interest expense for the fourth quarter was $13.5 million, down from $14.3 million for the third quarter of 2007. Other financial items were a loss in the fourth quarter of $8.0 million as compared to a loss of $13.5 million for the third quarter. This has resulted from unrealised interest rate swap

valuation losses of $8.5 million (before minority interest) down from the third quarter loss of $11.8 million.

Earnings per share for the fourth quarter were $0.04 as compared to ($0.14) for the third quarter and are $2.10 for the twelve months to December 31, 2007 as compared to $1.09 for the twelve months to December 31, 2006.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 the Company reports operating revenues of $224.7 million, operating income of $120.9 million and net income of $136.8 million as compared to $239.7 million, $115.1 million and $71.7 million respectively for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. Revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 have decreased primarily due to the Golar Spirit completing its long term charter with Pertamina in late 2006 and consequently trading in the spot market in 2007 until entering the ship yard for conversion on October 1, 2007. Net income in 2007 has benefited from a $41.1 million gain on sale of a newbuilding and net income has additionally benefited from an aggregate gain of $73.5 million in respect of the sale of the Company’s investment in Korea Line.

The Board has declared four dividends in 2007 totalling $2.25 per share based on the results for 2006, the sale of one new building and the sale of the Korea Line investment. Based on results for the full year ended December 31, 2007 the Board has declared a final dividend of $0.25 per share. The record date for the dividend is March 6, 2008, ex dividend date is March 4, 2008 and the dividend will be paid on or about March 20, 2008.

The Boards objective is to pay a regular dividend. The level of dividend will be guided by current earnings, market prospects, capital expenditure requirements and investments.

Corporate and Other Matters

Earnings from the spot/short term traded LNG Carriers was significantly improved during the quarter with utilisation at 95% and TCE for the short term/spot fleet in excess of $60,000 per day. This achievement was particularly pleasing in a market that is widely reported to be long tonnage.

Golar Spirit has spent the whole quarter undergoing conversion into a FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) prior to her delivery to Petrobras scheduled for the end of Q2 this year. The site team supervising the conversion and the workforce provided by Keppel is now at full strength and all major equipment items needed for the conversion have been delivered to the yard.

Detailed engineering work has now commenced for the Golar Winter FSRU conversion project as this phase of the project now winds down for Golar Spirit. Additionally significant development and design time was spent during the quarter in support of bids for new ship conversion business opportunities.

The Livorno project JV Company (OLT) signed an agreement with Golar for the purchase of the Golar Frost for the price of $231 million. The signing of this agreement was a significant milestone achieved for the project and is a clear indication of the commitment toward the project by the shareholders. It is anticipated that this transaction will be finalised with the vessel transferring ownership around midyear 2008. The vessel is currently fixed on a time charter until March 2008. All income from the vessel will be for Golar’s benefit until sale completion.

As announced last quarter Golar agreed to purchase the LNG Carrier “Granatina” from Shell and this acquisition was completed in January 2008. In order to finance the equity portion of the

2

purchase the Company successfully completed a directed equity offering of 3.2 million shares which raised net proceeds of approximately $76 million. The Company also entered into a $120 million loan facility in January 2008 also in connection with the purchase of the Granatina.

The Company has taken advantage of falling long-term interest rates to swap a further $100m of floating interest rate debt exposure to a fixed rate. As at January 31, 2008 (after draw down of the Granatina facility) the Company’s total debt and net capital lease obligations (net of restricted cash deposits) was approximately $1.1 billion. Of this approximately 58% is fixed rate debt or swapped to a fixed rate. The Company’s average fixed interest rate (excluding margin) is approximately 4.9 %.

During the quarter the Company announced that it had acquired 400,000 of its own shares to be held as treasury shares. Additionally, in 2008, the Company entered into a total return swap (`TRS` or `equity swap`) with an international bank in connection with which it acquired a total of 200,000 of its own shares. The TRS is designed to effectively provide financing for the acquisition of Golar`s shares and the TRS bank will be compensated for their carrying cost at Libor plus a margin. The swap has a term of 6 months. In total the Board has approved the purchase of up to a total maximum of 1,000,000 shares either by direct purchase or via the TRS.

In February 2008 Golar announced it had sold 25,000 shares in order to satisfy the exercise of share options by Golar share option holders. After this sale Golar holds 375,000 shares in its own right and 200,000 shares via an equity swap.

It is the Boards intention to ultimately cancel these shares or to use them to satisfy the exercise of share options.

Market

The increased demand for LNG in the Far East, driven by a combination of nuclear power plant outages in Japan and the anticipated seasonal winter demand, has resulted in the diversion of a large number of cargoes from the Atlantic Basin. LNG producers that have historically been reluctant to divert cargoes have modified their approach this year as significant arbitrage between the trading basins has opened up. With the onset of summer in the northern hemisphere it is expected that most Atlantic LNG producers will be returning to trading in more traditional markets. This reduction in tonne miles combined with a build up of uncommitted LNG shipping capacity in the market for short term/spot shipping is expected to result in a fall in rates over the coming months.

Many LNG producers are experiencing operational difficulties in particular the newly started Snohvit and Nigeria LNG Train 6 and both will take some time before reaching full production. Other established producers have also been experiencing operational difficulties with existing units and, as reported last quarter, the large Qatar Gas 2 project is not expected to come on steam until toward the end of the year – perhaps up to 6 months late. All these difficulties and delays are having a direct impact on the availability of LNG ships.

The company opportunistically chartered in a new build LNG Carrier, Ebisu, for a two year period from BP. With several of the company’s existing vessels expected to be converted and/or chartered out, the addition of Ebisu to the fleet helps to maintain Golar’s active presence in the spot market. The Ebisu will be delivered from Kawasaki Shipyard in June of this year and on delivery will immediately be chartered back to BP for her maiden voyage.

The delay in the development in new green-field and brown-field projects has resulted in a slowdown in opportunity to compete for long-term charters. Several tenders for LNG shipping

capacity have been stalled for some time and show no sign of resolution in the immediate future. It can only be a matter of time before this has an impact on the shipyards.

Conversely the interest by existing industry participants and potential new entrants in the market for FSRU’s and SRV’s (Shuttle Regasification Vessels) is rapidly increasing. Many countries are looking for a quick and relatively easy route to introduce LNG into their energy mix. This increased interest has led to an increase in enquiries and opportunities to tender for new business.

More recently there is now a growing interest in developing the capability to produce LNG directly onboard a floating facility; a development that mirrors the development of FPSO’s in the oil industry. Several industry players have now publically announced their intention to develop and market this emerging technology.

Outlook

Good progress has been made over the past quarter toward securing several emerging FSRU opportunities. The Board remains optimistic about the contribution from existing and pending projects and is looking to strengthen this segment of the Company’s activities. The Company’s portfolio of vessels coming available for conversion over the next few years positions the Company well to secure a strong position in this growing segment of the LNG industry.

The previously announced intention to restructure Golar with the separation of long term charters from other business opportunities has been progressed to an advanced stage and is nearing completion. However, due to current market conditions the restructuring and public announcement of details will be delayed, probably until the third quarter of 2008. In the meantime the Company is hopeful that it may be able to add to its portfolio of long-term charters which would be suitable for the restructured long-term contract business.

The Board anticipates that earnings in the first quarter of 2008 from the Company’s spot vessels will show some deterioration on the fourth quarter of 2007 but still anticipates good utilization. Due to the downward movement of long-term interest rates since the year end the Board also anticipates a significant loss on mark-to-market interest rate swap valuations if rates stay where they are currently until the end of the quarter. This loss will be partly offset by lower interest to be paid on floating interest rate debt.

Whilst 2008 is likely to present some challenges in the spot market the Board remains very optimistic about the prospects for the Company’s project portfolio. With a solid foundation built on long term contracts; the growing volume and importance of spot LNG trading and the fundamentals supporting the growth in the LNG industry as a whole not being impacted by the current spate of project delays, the medium to long term outlook for Golar LNG remains very good.
