[3] In 1986, Golar Spirit was chartered for twenty years by Indonesian oil and gas company Pertamina.

[5] In April 2007, Golar Spirit was charter contracted by Petrobras to serve as the Pecém LNG terminal.

The LNG is vaporized in the onboard regasification system, which enables the FSRU to provide natural gas to the onshore consumers (power plants).

[10][11] The Norwegian company Bjørge engineered its pressure protection system through its subsidiary Solberg & Andersen.

[11] The regasification capacity of the Golar Spirit is 7 million cubic meters per day (250×10^6 cu ft/d) (over 240 metric tons or 260 short tons of LNG per hour), and its storage capacity is 129 thousand cubic meters (4.6×10^6 cu ft) of LNG, equivalent to 77 million cubic meters (2.7×10^9 cu ft) of natural gas.

[17] The vessel was sold to New Fortress Energy and renamed FSRU Spirit and offered for charter following the Ukraine conflict's impact on gas pipelines.
