GasLog

What GasLog does

GasLog Ltd. is a Bermuda-incorporated, privately held international owner, operator, and manager of LNG carriers founded in 2001 by the Livanos family through Ceres Hellenic. Following a 2021 going-private transaction backed by BlackRock (via Global Infrastructure Partners) and the subsequent 2024 transfer of that stake to GIC, ownership is held approximately 55% by Blenheim Holdings Ltd. (Livanos family) together with the Onassis Foundation and approximately 45% by GIC, after the 2023 merger of the publicly traded GasLog Partners LP back into the parent. The company operates a consolidated fleet of 36 LNG carriers (34 on the water plus two under construction) and holds a 20% interest in a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) terminal via its 2016 investment in Gastrade S.A., targeting emerging LNG import infrastructure markets.

The fleet is built around modern, low-pressure dual-fuel two-stroke X-DF engines achieving boil-off rates of 0.07%, complemented by reliquefaction and sub-cooler systems that improve fuel efficiency and cargo trading flexibility. Vessels are constructed in partnership with Samsung Heavy Industries, with a permanent GasLog presence at the shipyard. Operations are run in-house across design, construction oversight, and trading, supported by approximately 160 onshore staff in Piraeus, London, and Singapore and over 1,600 seafarers, with documented retention rates above 96%.

GasLog generates revenue almost exclusively through multi-year time charter contracts with major international energy companies and new entrants in the LNG market, directly as a B2B enterprise sales motion without intermediaries. The customer base is concentrated among global energy majors, supplemented by FSRU engagements with natural gas distribution operators such as Gastrade. Capital structure was recapitalized in November 2023 via a $2.8 billion five-year sustainability-linked senior secured reducing revolving credit facility, used to refinance outstanding debt and extend charters; in 2024 the company completed full redemption of its Series A Preference Shares and NOK-denominated bonds, intending to delist the preference shares from the NYSE.

Direct peers

• Cool Company: Cool Company operates a fleet of modern LNG carriers on long-term time charters to global energy companies, formed from the spin-off and merger of Golar LNG's shipping operations. Directly comparable to GasLog as a pure-play LNG carrier operator with similar charter strategy.

Comparable as an LNG carrier operator competing for similar global charter customers, with diversified exposure across bulk, car carriers, and container shipping.
• Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL): MOL is one of Japan's largest shipping conglomerates with a significant LNG carrier fleet among its diversified business portfolio. Comparable as a major LNG carrier owner operating globally, though LNG is one of many segments versus GasLog's focus.
• Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK Line): NYK Line is a major Japanese shipping conglomerate with substantial LNG carrier operations. Comparable as a large incumbent LNG carrier operator serving similar customers, though diversified across container, bulk, and other shipping segments.

Emerging players

• Dorian LPG: Dorian LPG is a VLGC (very large gas carrier) owner transporting LPG. While focused on LPG rather than LNG, Dorian shares similar shipping business model dynamics, capital intensity, and customer base of international energy companies.
