Seglem, who joined Knutsen as a project engineer in the LNG department in 2011, was the deputy CEO at Knutsen OAS and up until recently president of the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association.
The Knutsen Group currently operates nearly 60 ships, with 25 LNG carriers managed by Knutsen OAS, excluding 18 LNG newbuilds spread across shipyards in South Korea and China
