Baker Hughes will supply ADNOC with two electric liquefaction systems for the Ruwais LNG project in the United Arab Emirates.
The liquefied natural gas (LNG) trains will be driven by Baker Hughes’ 75-MW BRUSH electric motor technology and feature the company’s compressor technology, making Ruwais LNG one of the first all-electric LNG projects in the Middle East.
The Ruwais LNG project consists of two 4.8-MTPA natural gas liquefaction trains with a total capacity of 9.6 MTPA of LNG. When completed, it will more than double ADNOC’s LNG production target capacity to meet increased global demand for natural gas.
“This award represents an important milestone for Baker Hughes in the LNG market and demonstrates the strength of our portfolio, which we strategically expanded through the BRUSH Power Generation acquisition in 2022,” said Ganesh Ramaswamy, executive vice president of Industrial & Energy Technology at Baker Hughes. “Over the next decade, electrification will play a critical role in the energy transition, enabling further reduction of the carbon emissions footprint of natural gas. We are incredibly honored that ADNOC Gas, for and on behalf of ADNOC, has chosen Baker Hughes as a trusted partner to support their vision to increase LNG production while further decarbonizing their operations.”
