A method for converting a first and a second liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier into a floating LNG plant, the LNG carrier including at least a hull and a plurality of LNG storage tanks, the method comprising:
- removing from the first and/or second LNG carrier at least one LNG tank, to obtain a first and a second converted LNG carrier;
- connecting the first and the second converted LNG carrier by a connection structure in order to obtain a twin-hull vessel;
- installing process equipment for LNG processing on the twin-hull vessel;
- installing a mooring system on the twin-hull vessel for mooring the floating LNG plant to the seabed;
- and
- providing a reservoir for storing fluids separated during the LNG processing, said reservoir being positioned in the connection structure between the first and the second converted LNG carrier.
