Energy technology company, Baker Hughes has announced it has been awarded an order by Bechtel to supply two Main Refrigerant Compressors (MRCs) for Sempra Infrastructure’s Port Arthur LNG Phase 1 project in Jefferson County, Texas, US.

Through the Port Arthur LNG Phase 1 project, Sempra Infrastructure aims to deliver critical new export infrastructure in the U.S., which will help meet continuing growth in demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG).

In total, Baker Hughes will supply four Frame 7 turbines paired with eight centrifugal compressors across two LNG trains as well as two electric motor driven compressors for the plant’s boosting services.

Baker Hughes chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli: ‘We are delighted to be working with Bechtel and Sempra Infrastructure to supply critical equipment for this innovative LNG project. Baker Hughes has been committed to LNG for over 30 years, and today’s announcement builds on our track record of delivering high-availability and reliable LNG technology, with low total cost of operations, further enabling increased exports of LNG from the U.S. Gulf Coast to meet global energy needs.’
