                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

     GOLAR LNG LIMITED is filing this Amendment to its Report on Form 20-F for
its fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, to include a disclosure regarding
exemptions from certain Nasdaq corporate governance rules under Item 6 of the
Form 20-F. This disclosure speaks as of December 31, 2003.





ITEM 6.  DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES

Exemptions from certain Nasdaq corporate governance rules

          At the time that quotation of Golar LNG Limited's Common Shares on the
Nasdaq National Market commenced, Golar LNG Limited received an exemption from
certain corporate governance requirements. Nasdaq rules permit Nasdaq to provide
exemptions from the Nasdaq corporate governance standards to a foreign issuer
when those standards are contrary to a law, rule or regulation of any public
authority exercising jurisdiction over such issuer or contrary to generally
accepted business practices in the issuer's country of domicile. Golar LNG
Limited has received from Nasdaq an exemption from compliance with certain
corporate governance standards that are contrary to the law, rules, regulations
or generally accepted business practices of Bermuda. The exemption, and the
practices followed by Golar LNG Limited, are described below:

     o    In keeping with Bermuda law and the rules of the Oslo Stock Exchange,
          Golar LNG Limited is exempt from Nasdaq's requirement to maintain
          three independent directors and currently no member's of its board of
          directors independent according to Nasdaq's standards for
          independence.

     o    In keeping with common practices among companies listed on the Oslo
          Stock Exchange, Golar LNG Limited is exempt from Nasdaq's requirement
          for an audit committee and an audit committee charter. The Company's
          full board of directors currently fulfills the function of an audit
          committee. The Company's management is responsible for the proper and
          timely preparation of the Company's annual reports and are audited by
          independent auditors.
