ABB Energy Industries president Brandon Spencer said: “ABB’s integrated offering of automation, electrical and digital solutions uniquely help minimize capex and maximize the performance, production and plant availability of LNG and clean fuel projects.

“We look forward to collaborating with Texas LNG to explore how technological advances can help enhance LNG production, given the vital role LNG can play in global energy security.”

Last month, Baker Hughes was selected to supply gas compression technology equipment for the Texas LNG export terminal, which is expected to create more than 1,200 jobs during the construction phase and over 100 new full-time jobs.

As part of the contract, Baker Hughes will supply gas compression technology equipment including electric motor drives for the terminal.

Baker also has a framework agreement to make a pre-final investment decision in the late-stage development of the project.
