Singapore’s Keppel Corporation is in talks with Golar LNG to provide a floating liquefied natural gas vessel for BP's Tortue-Ahmeyin project off Mauritania and Senegal, writes Amanda Battersby.

Keppel would need to be ready to start conversion work on the FLNG vessel from 1 July, contingent on the project’s final investment decision which is expected by the end of 2018.
