Baker Hughes, an energy technology company, has secured a major order from Venture Global LNG to provide a comprehensive liquefaction solution for the CP2 LNG expansion project in Louisiana, the company announced on Monday.
The order, booked in the second quarter, builds on the companies' existing master equipment supply agreement and covers six liquefaction blocks comprising a total of 12 liquefaction modules.
Each block is based on two single mixed-refrigerant liquefaction modules and related compression trains featuring Baker Hughes' advanced centrifugal compressor technology, along with cold boxes, air coolers and integrated control systems.
Currently under construction, the CP2 LNG liquefaction facility is expected to have an export capacity of more than 29 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) upon completion.
"Baker Hughes has been a trusted partner across our LNG developments, and we are pleased to extend this collaboration as we advance the next phase of CP2," Venture Global's Chief Executive Officer Mike Sabel said in the statement.
Meanwhile, Baker Hughes Chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said the company remains committed to providing LNG technologies that support Venture Global's efforts to meet growing global energy demand.
"Our continued collaboration reflects the strength of our partnership and our shared commitment to scaling modular LNG solutions that accelerate U.S. supply and support global energy security," Simonelli concluded.
Baker Hughes serves as a strategic supplier to Venture Global across more than 100 million tonnes per annum of existing and planned production capacity, contributing comprehensive LNG systems to the Calcasieu Pass and Plaquemines LNG facilities.
