Baker Hughes Drives Next-Gen Technology in Louisiana LNG
Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Baker Hughes technology will equip Commonwealth LNG's 9.5 mtpa export plant in Louisiana.
Six turbo compressors powered by LM9000 turbines highlight BKR's low-carbon technology.
With licenses and agreements in place, LNG startup is targeted for 2029 under Caturus.
Baker Hughes Company (BKR - Free Report) has assumed a pivotal role in advancing the Commonwealth LNG export facility currently under development in Cameron, LA. The energy technology and services company’s cutting-edge refrigerant turbo compressors and LM9000 gas turbines have been selected as critical components for the 9.5 million tons per annum liquefaction plant. This marks a milestone toward the project’s anticipated final investment decision (FID) in the third quarter of 2025.
The six Baker Hughes refrigerant turbo compressors, to be ordered by Technip Energies — the project’s engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor — are fundamental to the plant’s liquefaction process. Powered by the LM9000 turbines, known for their high efficiency and low carbon intensity, these compressors underscore BKR’s technological leadership in energy infrastructure.
Ben Dell, managing partner of Kimmeridge and chairman of Commonwealth LNG, highlighted the technology selection as an important step toward delivering low-emission LNG to global markets responsibly. Commonwealth LNG’s president and CEO Farhad Ahrabi praised Baker Hughes’ commitment to operational efficiency and environmental stewardship reflected through its technology solutions.
With the federal export license secured and key off-take agreements in place, the LNG project, backed by Kimmeridge’s alternative investment strategy, targets production startup by 2029. BKR’s technology supply is central to helping Commonwealth LNG and its newly rebranded parent firm, Caturus, meet ambitious production and sustainability goals.
This development strengthens Baker Hughes’ foothold in the growing U.S. LNG export sector while reinforcing its reputation as a provider of next-generation, high-efficiency energy equipment critical to the global energy transition.
