• Contracts awarded by Bechtel and Cheniere to supply primary liquefaction equipment, including main refrigerant compressors and gas turbines, for the first phase of the Sabine Pass Expansion Project
• Technology packages support an additional nameplate capacity of over 6 million tons per annum (MTPA) for Train 7 and boil-off gas re-liquefaction unit
• Services award provides fleet-wide gas turbine upgrades to enhance power, driving LNG production
   

HOUSTON and LONDON, July 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Baker Hughes (NASDAQ:BKR), an energy technology company, announced Thursday three substantial awards for Cheniere’s Sabine Pass LNG facility in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The awards, booked in the second quarter, comprise orders from Bechtel Energy Inc. (Bechtel) and Cheniere to supply liquefaction equipment for Train 7 and for a boil-off gas re-liquefaction unit, as well as an award for fleet-wide gas turbine technology upgrades.

The equipment orders for Phase 1 of the Sabine Pass expansion project include seven PGT25+ G4 gas turbines driving 15 centrifugal compressors, enabling approximately 6 million tons per annum (MTPA) of additional LNG production capacity.

Additionally, Baker Hughes will deliver upgrades across the entire fleet of installed aeroderivative PGT25+ G4 gas turbines at the Sabine Pass facility over a four-year period. These upgrades will help to increase the power output of the turbines to enhance LNG production capabilities, helping deliver efficiency across the facility’s current approximate 30 MTPA capacity. These upgrades, together with Train 7 and the boil-off gas re-liquefaction unit, are expected to add over 6 MTPA of capacity at Sabine Pass.

The expansion and upgrade of the Sabine Pass LNG terminal support growing global demand for natural gas in energy and industrial applications, helping to deliver affordable energy supply.
