NextDecade selects Baker Hughes to expand Rio Grande LNG terminal

NextDecade Corporation has entered into a framework agreement with Baker Hughes covering the expansion of the Rio Grande LNG terminal, specifically targeting liquefaction units (“trains”) numbered from 4 to 8. Under the terms of the agreement, Baker Hughes will supply NextDecade with specific equipment, including gas turbines and refrigerant compressors, as well as associated contractual maintenance services. The Rio Grande LNG project, already committed to its first three units, aims to significantly expand its industrial and commercial capacity. These additional trains are expected to gradually increase the terminal’s total liquefaction capacity, adding around 18 million tonnes per year to its current output.
