Baker Hughes, NextDecade sign framework agreement for Rio Grande LNG project
Baker Hughes, an energy technology provider, has entered into a framework agreement with NextDecade, a liquefied natural gas (LNG) company, to supply gas turbine and refrigerant compressor technology for trains four through eight of the Rio Grande LNG facility in Texas, US. As part of the agreement, Baker Hughes will also deliver maintenance services for these equipment packages. The Rio Grande LNG facility is being developed on a 984-acre site in Brownsville, Texas. It will produce low-carbon intensive LNG and is considered to be the largest privately funded infrastructure project in Texas. NextDecade is advancing the commercialisation of Rio Grande LNG trains four and five, with construction expected to commence following a positive final investment decision (FID). This decision is contingent upon securing necessary government approvals, finalising engineering, procurement and construction contracts, establishing commercial agreements, and obtaining sufficient financing for each train and its associated infrastructure. NextDecade chairman and CEO Matt Schatzman added: 'Utilising Baker Hughes' industry-leading rotating equipment and their maintenance services is critical to ensuring the Rio Grande LNG facility operates efficiently and reliably. 'We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Baker Hughes as we progress our plans to make the Rio Grande LNG facility one of the largest LNG production and export facilities in the world.' The development and permitting process for trains six through eight, wholly owned by NextDecade, is also under way. These additional trains are projected to boost the company's total liquefaction capacity by approximately 18 million tonnes per annum upon completion and operation. Baker Hughes anticipates receiving orders in line with this agreement as NextDecade's project progresses. Baker Hughes chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said: 'Baker Hughes is proud to continue our long-standing relationship with NextDecade, providing advanced gas technology solutions that enhance the efficiency and reliability of their LNG operations. 'This agreement is a further example of our commitment to delivering innovative solutions in support of increasing energy demand.' Last month, Baker Hughes secured a major gas compression technology order for phase three of Aramco's Jafurah gas field expansion in Saudi Arabia. The company will supply electric motor-driven compression solutions through its expanded Dammam Centre as part of the contract.
