Baker Hughes wins Argentina gas turbine order for pipeline project

Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR) announced it secured an order from San Matias Pipeline S.A. to supply three gas compression units for a natural gas pipeline project in Argentina.

The order includes three NovaLT™16 gas turbines with three centrifugal compressors, along with commissioning services, spare parts, special tools, and remote monitoring capabilities. The equipment will be installed at a gas compressor station near Allen, Río Negro.

The compression units will support transportation of natural gas from the Vaca Muerta formation to the Gulf of San Matias through a pipeline that provides feed gas to Southern Energy's two floating LNG vessels.

This marks the first use of Baker Hughes' NovaLT™ gas turbine technology in South America. The NovaLT™16 platform was selected for its performance characteristics and delivery advantages for midstream gas compression applications supporting LNG value chains.

"This award underscores our continued focus on supporting critical gas infrastructure that enables secure, reliable and lower-emission energy systems as we expand our presence in strategic growth markets across Latin America," said Baker Hughes Chief Growth & Experience Officer and interim Executive Vice President of Industrial & Energy Technology Maria Claudia Borras.

The information is based on a company press release statement.
