Baker Hughes to deliver lifecycle services for Nigeria LNG

Energy technology company, Baker Hughes, has secured a comprehensive lifecycle services deal from Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) to support turbomachinery equipment at its liquefaction plant in Bonny Island, Nigeria

Baker Hughes and NLNG collaboration has aged two decades now and continue to run strong with the current agreement that comes with scope for 13 years. The agreement ensures operational support for the new Train 7 project, which is set to increase the facility’s total LNG production capacity from 22 to 30 MTPA once completed. The scope covers comprehensive services for Baker Hughes’ equipment awarded in 2021: four heavy duty gas turbines and associated centrifugal compressors, along with two additional gas turbines for power generation. The new service agreement includes the support of a local Baker Hughes engineering team and iCenter digital services, powered by Cordant, for remote monitoring and diagnostics to enhance equipment reliability and availability.

“Utilising Baker Hughes’ industry-leading lifecycle services and digital expertise will help support the successful long-term operation of our Train 7 project,” said Nigeria LNG Limited Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Adeleye Falade.

“As we expand our production capacity, we are strengthening Nigeria’s role as a competitive global energy supplier, creating greater economic value for our stakeholders, and supporting a practical energy transition through the delivery of lower-carbon energy solutions. This partnership reflects our commitment to operational excellence, innovation and sustainable growth.”

“This agreement reinforces the strength of our long-standing collaboration with NLNG and our commitment to the region,” said Baker Hughes Chief Growth & Experience Officer and interim Executive Vice President of Industrial & Energy Technology, Maria Claudia Borras.

“Our advanced lifecycle services and regional expertise can help NLNG ensure efficient and reliable operations at its Bonny Island facility, while bolstering energy reliability as Nigeria continues to harness its proven gas reserves to meet growing global energy demands.”
