11.2.5 MNM VIEW

The Linde Group’s engineering division utilizes its process engineering know-how in the project
development and construction of turnkey industrial plants to avoid sourcing of engineering solutions from
the third party vendors. The company’s engineering division either supplies small scale LNG terminals
directly to the customer or to its gasses division that operates the terminals on behalf of the customer
under the gasses supply contract, making it an organized business division to regulate its revenues. The
Linde Group offers small scale LNG terminals across regions such as Europe, the Middle East & Africa,
Asia-Pacific, and the Americas to expand its regional penetration. Revenue in the company’s engineering
division in the financial year 2015 dropped by 16.5% from USD 4.3 billion in 2014 to USD 3.6 billion in
2015, due to the low oil price and faltering demand in the plant construction in the first half of the year
2015.

Wärtsilä Corporation focusses on developing innovative solutions while offering small to medium-scale LNG
terminals, liquefaction and regasification solutions, and distribution infrastructures. The company is
emphasizing on integrating smart power generation power plant with LNG terminal to form a complete
turnkey solution, utilizing gas as a fuel. In 2015, order intake for both marine and energy markets dropped
from the previous year due to the challenging operating environment, depressed oil prices. Moreover, the
demand for small and medium-scale vessels was burdened by overcapacity that led to decline in the order
intake for marine and energy markets.
