Baker Hughes to Supply Key Equipment for Woodside LNG Project in Louisiana
(P&GJ) — Baker Hughes has secured a contract from Bechtel Energy to provide liquefaction equipment for two plants as part of Phase 1 of Woodside Energy Group’s Louisiana LNG project.
The facilities will have a combined capacity of approximately 11 million tonnes per annum (MTPA), with total permitted capacity for the project set at 27.6 MTPA.
The scope of work includes eight main refrigeration compressors driven by LM6000PF+ gas turbines and eight expander-compressors. This equipment supports Woodside’s efforts to achieve final investment decision (FID) readiness by early 2025.
“Louisiana LNG will play a vital role in meeting the world’s increasing LNG demand,” said Paul Marsden, president of Bechtel Energy. “Bechtel is proud to collaborate with Baker Hughes to help deliver this critical project.”
Ganesh Ramaswamy, executive vice president of Industrial & Energy Technology at Baker Hughes, highlighted the company’s longstanding partnerships and expertise. “Building on our 40-year track record in LNG and established collaboration with both Bechtel and Woodside, we look forward to supporting this important project and contributing to sustainable energy development,” he said.
Baker Hughes has also been tapped to provide electric-powered Integrated Compressor Line (ICL) packages and other turbomachinery for the pipeline connected to the LNG export terminal.
