U.S.-headquartered energy technology giant Baker Hughes has been tasked with providing the main liquefaction equipment for the recently greenlit expansion of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export project in Texas, United States.

This equipment order, which Baker Hughes received from Bechtel Energy for the supply of the main liquefaction equipment for Train 4 of NextDecade ’s Rio Grande LNG facility in the Port of Brownsville, is perceived to build on a previous framework agreement for the firm’s gas turbine and refrigerant compressor technology and contractual services agreements for Trains 4 through 8.
