Baker Hughes Secures Liquefaction Equipment Order for Woodside Louisiana LNG

Baker Hughes announced an order from Bechtel Energy Inc. (Bechtel) to supply gas technology equipment for two liquefaction plants with a total capacity of approximately 11 MTPA for Phase 1 of Woodside Energy Group's Louisiana LNG development opportunity. The order marks a significant milestone as Woodside targets final investment decision (FID) readiness from the first quarter of 2025.

The award, which includes eight main refrigeration compressors driven by LM6000PF+ gas turbines and eight expander-compressors, leverages Baker Hughes’ proven, best-in-class LNG technologies to support Bechtel and Woodside. Baker Hughes’ history of working with Bechtel and Woodside will support the delivery of Phase 1 of the project.

“Louisiana LNG will play a vital role in meeting the world’s increasing LNG demand,” said Paul Marsden, president of Bechtel Energy.

In addition to this award, Baker Hughes was previously selected to supply Woodside electric-powered Integrated Compressor Line (ICL) packages and other turbomachinery equipment for the associated pipeline serving the LNG export terminal.
