Summary
Baker Hughes has been selected by ST LNG as the technology provider for its proposed 8.4 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) U.S. offshore liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal near Matagorda, Texas. Baker Hughes will supply critical gas compression, power generation equipment, and project development support for the multi-phase project, with the first phase targeting 2.1 MTPA by mid-2030.

The agreement strengthens Baker Hughes' future revenue pipeline and reinforces its leadership in providing advanced solutions for the growing global LNG market, particularly in complex offshore environments.
