CEO Statement
Mr. Andrew Orekar, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Following the successful acquisition of the GasLog Greece, GasLog
Partners delivered our highest-ever quarterly Partnership Performance Results for Revenues and EBITDA, among other metrics. As a
result of our performance, we are increasing our cash distribution by 2% from the first quarter of 2017 to $0.51 per unit. With
this increase, the Partnership has grown distributions per unit by 7% year-on-year and by 36% since our initial public offering
("IPO"), representing an 11% compound annual growth rate. Our track record of growth despite continued energy market volatility
highlights the strength of GasLog Partners' business model, which provides cash flow stability with growth through
acquisitions.
In the second quarter, our Series A Preference Units and initial ATM Programme offerings generated significant proceeds for
growth and increased liquidity. Following these capital raisings, we announced the $211.0 million acquisition of the GasLog
Geneva, which closed on July 3, 2017. The acquisition expands the Partnership's fleet to 11 wholly owned LNG carriers, extends
our average remaining charter duration and is supportive of our guidance to grow unitholder distributions at a 10% to 15% compound
annual rate from IPO through 2017. The Partnership expects to provide distribution guidance for 2018 later this year.
We are pleased with this quarter's operating performance and the continued growth of the Partnership's cash flows and
distributions."
Acquisition of the GasLog Greece
On May 3, 2017, GasLog Partners acquired from GasLog 100% of the shares in the entity that owns and charters the GasLog
Greece. The GasLog Greece is a 174,000 cubic meter ("cbm") tri-fuel diesel electric ("TFDE") LNG carrier built in
2016 and operated by GasLog since delivery. The vessel is currently on a multi-year time charter with Shell through March 2026 and
Shell has an option to extend the charter for a period of five years.
The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition was $219.0 million, which included $1.0 million for positive net working
capital balances transferred with the vessel. GasLog Partners financed the acquisition with cash on hand, including proceeds from
our equity offering in January 2017, and the assumption of the GasLog Greece's outstanding indebtedness of $151.4
million.
Acquisition of the GasLog Geneva
On July 3, 2017, GasLog Partners acquired from GasLog 100% of the shares in the entity that owns and charters the GasLog
Geneva. The GasLog Geneva is a 174,000 cbm TFDE LNG carrier built in 2016 and operated by GasLog since delivery. The
vessel is currently on a multi-year time charter with a subsidiary of Shell through September 2023 and Shell has two consecutive
extension options which, if exercised, would extend the charter for a period of either five or eight years.
The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition was $211.0 million, which included $1.0 million for positive net working
capital balances transferred with the vessel. GasLog Partners financed the acquisition with cash on hand, including proceeds from
the Series A Preference Units offering, and the assumption of the GasLog Geneva's outstanding indebtedness of $155.0
million.
Issuance of Series A Preference Units
On May 15, 2017, GasLog Partners completed a public offering of 5,750,000 8.625% Series A Preference Units (including 750,000
units issued upon the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional Series A Preference Units),
liquidation preference $25.00 per unit, at a price to the public of $25.00 per preference unit. The net proceeds from the offering
after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses were $138.8 million. The Series A Preference Units
are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "GLOP PR A". The initial distribution on the Series A Preference Units
will be payable on September 15, 2017.
Launch of ATM Common Equity Offering Programme
On May 16, 2017, GasLog Partners commenced an ATM Programme under which the Partnership may, from time to time, raise equity
through the issuance and sale of new common units having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million in accordance with the
terms of an equity distribution agreement entered into on the same date. Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC have agreed to act as sales agents.
From establishment of the ATM Programme through June 30, 2017, GasLog Partners had issued and received payment for 410,877 common
units at a weighted average price of $22.68 per common unit for total net proceeds of $8.8 million, after broker commissions of
$0.2 million and other expenses of $0.3 million. In connection with the issuance of common units under the ATM Programme during
this period, the Partnership also issued 8,385 general partner units to its general partner in order for GasLog to retain its 2.0%
general partner interest. The net proceeds from the issuance of the general partner units were $0.2 million. In the period from
July 1, 2017 through July 6, 2017, GasLog Partners issued and received payment for an additional 94,367 common units at a weighted
average price of $22.91 per unit for net proceeds of $2.1 million, after broker commissions of $0.03 million. The issuance of these
units fulfilled contractual commitments entered into on or before June 30, 2017. In connection with the issuance of common units
during this subsequent period, the Partnership also issued 1,926 general partner units to its general partner in order for GasLog
to retain its 2.0% general partner interest, the net proceeds of which were $0.04 million.

(1) "IFRS Common Control Reported Results" represent the results of GasLog
Partners in accordance with IFRS. Such results include amounts related to vessels currently owned by the Partnership for the
periods prior to their respective transfer to GasLog Partners from GasLog, as the transfers of such vessels was accounted for as a
reorganization of entities under common control for IFRS accounting purposes. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of the Partnership accompanying this press release are prepared under IFRS on this basis.
(2) Adjusted Profit and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For
definition and reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with
IFRS, please refer to Exhibit III at the end of this press release.
The decrease in profit in the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the first quarter of 2017 is mainly attributable to an
increase of $2.4 million in loss on interest rate swaps, combined with an increase in operating expenses of $1.3 million.
The decrease in profit in the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 is attributable to an increase of
$2.3 million in net financial costs, mainly due to increased interest expense and loss on interest rate swaps in the three months
ended June 30, 2017, partially offset by an increase in profit from operations of $0.4 million.

(1) "Partnership Performance Results" represent the results attributable to
GasLog Partners. Such results are non-GAAP measures and exclude amounts related to vessels currently owned by the Partnership for
the periods prior to their respective transfers to GasLog Partners from GasLog, as the Partnership is not entitled to the cash or
results generated in the periods prior to such transfers. Such results are included in the GasLog Partners' results in accordance
with IFRS because the transfer of the vessel owning entities by GasLog to the Partnership represents a reorganization of entities
under common control and the Partnership reflects such transfers retroactively under IFRS. GasLog Partners believes that these
non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors regarding the financial
and operating performance of the Partnership necessary to understand the underlying basis for the calculations of the quarterly
distribution and earnings per unit, which similarly exclude the results of vessels prior to their transfer to the Partnership.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes to the equivalent GAAP measures presented in
accordance with IFRS, but should be used in conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS Common Control Reported Results. For
definitions and reconciliations of these measurements to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance
with IFRS, please refer to Exhibit II at the end of this press release.
(2) Adjusted Profit, EBITDA and Distributable cash flow are non-GAAP
financial measures, and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for GasLog Partners' financial results presented in
accordance with IFRS. For definition and reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS, please refer to Exhibit III at the end of this press release.
The decrease in profit in the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the first quarter of 2017 is mainly attributable to an
increase of $3.8 million in net financial costs (comprising financial costs and loss on interest rate swaps, net of financial
income) and an increase of $1.3 million in operating expenses of the existing fleet, partially offset by the $3.1 million profit
from operations of the GasLog Greece, which was acquired by the Partnership on May 3, 2017.
The increase in profit for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 is attributable to the $6.7 million
profit from operations of the GasLog Seattle and the GasLog Greece, acquired by the Partnership on November 1, 2016
and May 3, 2017, respectively, and to the $0.5 million increase in profit from operations of the existing fleet, which were
partially offset by the $5.2 million increase in net financial costs (comprising financial costs and loss on interest rate swaps,
net of financial income) resulting from the valuation of the interest rate swaps and the increased weighted average outstanding
debt.
Cash Distribution
On July 26, 2017, the board of directors of GasLog Partners approved and declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.51 per
common unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The cash distribution is payable on August 11, 2017 to all unitholders of record
as of August 7, 2017.
End of Subordination Period
On May 16, 2017, the subordination period of the subordinated units held by GasLog expired and consequently all 9,822,358
subordinated units converted into common units on a one-for-one basis and now participate pro rata with all other outstanding
common units in distributions of available cash.
Liquidity and Financing
As of June 30, 2017, we had $209.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, of which $161.1 million is held in current accounts and
$48.0 million was held in time deposits.
As of June 30, 2017, we had an aggregate of $922.6 million of indebtedness outstanding under our credit facilities, of which
$85.1 million is repayable within one year. In addition, we had unused availability under our revolving credit facilities of $42.9
million.
On April 3, 2017, the Partnership signed a deed of termination with respect to its revolving credit facility with GasLog. On the
same date, the Partnership entered into a new unsecured five-year term loan of $45.0 million and a new five-year revolving credit
facility of $30.0 million with GasLog. On April 5, 2017, an amount of $45.0 million under the term loan facility and an amount of
$15.0 million under the revolving credit facility were drawn by the Partnership and were used on the same date to prepay $60.1
million of the outstanding debt of GAS-nineteen Ltd., GAS-twenty Ltd. and GAS-twenty one Ltd. under the junior tranche of the
credit agreement that subsidiaries of the Partnership and GasLog entered into on February 18, 2016 (the "Five Vessel Refinancing"),
which would have been originally due in April 2018. The outstanding amount of $15.0 million under the revolving credit facility was
repaid by the Partnership on May 22, 2017 following the issuance of the Series A Preference Units.
On May 3, 2017, in connection with the acquisition of GAS-eleven Ltd., the entity that owns the GasLog Greece, the
Partnership paid GasLog $66.6 million representing the difference between the $219.0 million aggregate purchase price and the
$151.4 million of outstanding indebtedness of the acquired entity assumed by GasLog Partners less an adjustment of $1.0 million in
order to maintain the agreed working capital position in the acquired entity of $1.0 million.
On July 3, 2017, in connection with the acquisition of GAS-thirteen Ltd., the entity that owns the GasLog Geneva, the
Partnership paid GasLog $55.0 million representing the difference between the $211.0 million aggregate purchase price and the
$155.0 million of outstanding indebtedness of the acquired entity assumed by GasLog Partners less an adjustment of $1.0 million in
order to maintain the agreed working capital position in the acquired entity of $1.0 million.
The Partnership has entered into three interest rate swap agreements with GasLog at a notional value of $390.0 million in
aggregate, maturing between 2020 and 2022. As of June 30, 2017, the Partnership has hedged 41.6% of its floating interest rate
exposure on its outstanding debt at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.6% (excluding margin).
As of June 30, 2017, our current assets totaled $218.0 million and current liabilities totaled $123.6 million, resulting in a
positive working capital position of $94.4 million.
The GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney and the GasLog Seattle are expected to carry out scheduled
dry-dockings during the first, second and fourth quarters of 2018, respectively. In addition to the normal cost of the dry-dockings
for which provisions are made through our dry-docking reserves in our Distributable cash flow calculations, we plan to make certain
investments in the vessels with the aim of enhancing their operational performance at a total cost of approximately $25 million,
which is expected to be capitalized as part of the respective vessel's cost.
LNG Market Update and Outlook
During the quarter, there has been continued momentum in the start-up of new LNG liquefaction capacity with the fourth train at
Sabine Pass commencing commercial production. Later this year, Wheatstone in Australia and Cove Point on the east coast of the U.S.
are expected to start production. In total, Wood Mackenzie estimates that there will be projects with approximately 28 million
tonnes per annum ("mtpa") of nameplate capacity coming online in 2017. In addition, Shell's 3.2 mtpa floating liquefaction facility
"Prelude" departed Samsung Heavy Industries en route to the Browse Basin, offshore Australia.
Sabine Pass shipped 48 cargoes in the second quarter of 2017, around four times as many as the same period in 2016,
demonstrating the significant ramp-up of the facility as new trains have come online. Since start-up, the facility has shipped LNG
to over 20 different countries, which include most recently Thailand, Pakistan, Taiwan, Poland and the UK. The diversity in cargo
destination has meant that the average distance travelled for U.S. cargoes has been almost 8,000 nautical miles, approximately
double the global long-term average, which is positive for shipping demand.
Some off-takers from projects currently under development are yet to secure all of their shipping requirements, leading to
increased tender activity in the medium and longer term charter markets. These tenders include requirements for both newbuild
vessels and on-the-water vessels with the latter being positive in terms of absorbing the current oversupply in the spot
market.
Growing LNG supply has to date been met by increased demand in both new and existing markets. For example, Japan and South
Korea, the two largest LNG importing nations, have increased their LNG imports in the first half of 2017 by 10% and 18%,
respectively, versus the same period in 2016. The new South Korean President Moon Jae-in has committed to cease production of
certain existing coal-fired power plants, to halt construction of new coal and nuclear power plants and not to extend the lifespan
of ageing nuclear reactors, all of which are expected to drive future LNG demand in the country.
Demand in the first half of 2017 in emerging LNG markets such as China (+35%) and Pakistan (+46%) has risen sharply over the
same period last year. Pakistan's Petroleum Minister said in July that the country could import over 30 mtpa by 2022 (compared to
4.5 mtpa currently), which would make Pakistan the fifth-largest importer in the world based on current levels of consumption.
Looking longer term, while final investment decisions ("FIDs") for new liquefaction projects in the current environment continue
to be very limited, there have been a number of encouraging recent developments. For example, ENI took a FID on the 3.3 mtpa Coral
South LNG project offshore Mozambique in June 2017, with BP having signed an agreement to purchase 100% of the LNG produced in late
2016. In addition, at the end of this quarter, the US Department of Energy authorized an additional 2.5 mtpa of exports from the
Lake Charles project in Louisiana, bringing total authorized exports to 17.5 mtpa. In the same month, Energy Transfer, Korean Gas
Corporation and Shell signed a memorandum of understanding to study joint participation in this project.
Post quarter-end, Qatar Petroleum announced its intention to increase LNG production to 100 mtpa from 77 mtpa today by doubling
the size of the new gas project in the southern sector of the North Field.
A number of markets that do not currently import gas are exploring LNG as an alternative to oil and coal or to replace declining
domestic supply. Many countries with growing power demand, such as Ivory Coast, South Africa, Bangladesh and Myanmar, are looking
at floating storage and re-gasification units ("FSRU") as a quick-to-market, cost-effective solution to import LNG. Other countries
with FSRUs already in place, such as Pakistan, are looking at expanding their use of FSRUs due to the successful commissioning and
effective operations of the existing units. FSRUs continue to dominate new import markets as a quicker to build, more flexible and
lower cost alternative to an onshore facility. Many producers and marketers of LNG appear to be focusing their attention on FSRUs
as a key enabler in creating new markets for their LNG.
In the shorter term LNG shipping market, TFDE headline rates have increased year on year, but remain below mid-cycle rates at
around $35,000-$40,000 per day, according to Clarksons. Whilst a recovery in spot rates to mid-cycle levels is taking longer than
anticipated, we continue to see a greater number of fixtures in 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 and increasing signs of
seasonality, both of which point to a tightening market. Over time, this market tightening should be helped by the low level of new
vessel orders, which stand at 7 for 2017 year to date including four vessels ordered for the Yamal project post quarter-end.

EXHIBIT II
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Reconciliation of Partnership Performance Results to IFRS Common Control Reported Results in our Financial
Statements:
Our Partnership Performance Results presented below are non-GAAP measures and exclude amounts related to GAS-seven Ltd. (the
owner of the GasLog Seattle) and GAS-eleven Ltd. (the owner of the GasLog Greece), for the periods prior to
their transfers to the Partnership on November 1, 2016 and May 3, 2017, respectively. While such amounts are reflected in the
Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements because the transfers to the Partnership were accounted for as
reorganizations of entities under common control under IFRS. GAS-seven Ltd. and GAS-eleven Ltd. were not owned by the Partnership
prior to their respective transfers to the Partnership in November 2016 and May 2017, and accordingly the Partnership was not
entitled to the cash or results generated in the periods prior to such transfers.
Our IFRS Common Control Reported Results presented below include the accounts of the Partnership and its
subsidiaries. Transfers of vessel owning subsidiaries from GasLog are accounted for as reorganizations of entities under common
control and the Partnership's consolidated financial statements are restated to reflect such subsidiaries from the date of their
incorporation by GasLog as they were under the common control of GasLog.
GasLog Partners believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information to both management
and investors regarding the financial and operating performance of the Partnership which is necessary to understand the underlying
basis for the calculations of the quarterly distribution and the earnings per unit, which similarly exclude the results of acquired
vessels prior to their transfer to the Partnership. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation or as
substitutes for the equivalent GAAP measures presented in accordance with IFRS, but should be used in conjunction with the most
directly comparable IFRS Common Control Reported Results.

EXHIBIT III
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest income and expense, gain/loss on interest rate swaps, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted Profit represents earnings before (a) non-cash gain/loss on interest rate swaps that includes unrealized
gain/loss on interest rate swaps held for trading and recycled loss of cash flow hedges reclassified to profit or loss and (b)
write-off of unamortized loan fees. EBITDA and Adjusted Profit, which are non-GAAP financial measures, are used as supplemental
financial measures by management and external users of financial statements, such as investors, to assess our financial and
operating performance. The Partnership believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist our management and investors by
increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period. The Partnership believes that including EBITDA and Adjusted
Profit assists our management and investors in (i) understanding and analyzing the results of our operating and business
performance, (ii) selecting between investing in us and other investment alternatives and (iii) monitoring our ongoing financial
and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold our common units. This increased comparability is achieved by
excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of, in the case of EBITDA, financial costs, gain/loss on interest rate
swaps, taxes, depreciation and amortization; and in the case of Adjusted Profit, non-cash gain/loss on interest rate swaps and
write-off of unamortized loan fees, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, financial market
conditions, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect results of operations between
periods.
EBITDA and Adjusted Profit have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as alternatives to, or as
substitutes for, or superior to, profit, profit from operations, earnings per unit or any other measure of operating performance
presented in accordance with IFRS. Some of these limitations include the fact that they do not reflect (i) our cash expenditures or
future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (ii) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working
capital needs and (iii) the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt. Although
depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in
the future and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. It is not adjusted for all non-cash income or
expense items that are reflected in our statement of cash flows and other companies in our industry may calculate this measure
differently to how we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect
profit or loss and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. The
following table reconciles EBITDA to profit, the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, for the periods presented.
EBITDA and Adjusted Profit are presented on the basis of IFRS Common Control Reported Results and Partnership Performance
Results. Partnership Performance Results are non-GAAP measures. The difference between IFRS Common Control Reported Results and
Partnership Performance Results are results attributable to GasLog, as set out in the reconciliations below.

Distributable Cash Flow
Distributable cash flow means EBITDA, on the basis of the Partnership Performance Results, after considering financial costs for
the period, including realized loss on interest rate swaps and excluding amortization of loan fees, estimated dry-docking and
replacement capital reserves established by the Partnership and accrued dividends on preference units, whether or not declared.
Estimated dry-docking and replacement capital reserves represent capital expenditures required to renew and maintain over the
long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, our capital assets. Distributable cash flow, which is a non-GAAP
financial measure, is a quantitative standard used by investors in publicly-traded partnerships to assess their ability to make
quarterly cash distributions. Our calculation of Distributable cash flow may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.
Distributable cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as an alternative to, or substitute for,
or superior to profit or loss, profit or loss from operations, earnings per unit or any other measure of operating performance
presented in accordance with IFRS. The table below reconciles Distributable cash flow to Profit for the period attributable to the
Partnership.

(1) Excludes amounts related to GAS-seven Ltd., the owner of the GasLog Seattle, and GAS-eleven Ltd., the
owner of the GasLog Greece, for the periods prior to their transfers to the Partnership on November 1, 2016 and May 3, 2017,
respectively. While such amounts are reflected in the Partnership's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements because
the transfers to the Partnership were accounted for as reorganizations of entities under common control under IFRS, GAS-seven Ltd.
and GAS-eleven Ltd. were not owned by the Partnership prior to their transfers to the Partnership in November 2016 and May 2017 and
accordingly the Partnership was not entitled to the cash or results generated in the period prior to such transfers.
(2) Refers to reserves (other than the dry-docking and replacement capital reserves) for the proper conduct of the
business of the Partnership and its subsidiaries (including reserves for future capital expenditures and for anticipated future
credit needs of the Partnership and its subsidiaries).
(3) For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the cash distributions declared and the other reserves have been
affected by $1,365 paid in respect of the common units issued in the Partnership's equity offering completed in the third quarter
of 2016.
(4) For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the cash distributions declared and the other reserves have been
calculated based on the number of units issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2017.
