The deal marks a concrete step toward industrialized micro-nuclear deployment and a potential new demand category for sub-10 MWe turbomachinery manufacturers.

Baker Hughes secured three contracts for Cheniere's Sabine Pass LNG expansion, covering Train 7 equipment, BOG re-liquefaction, and fleet-wide turbine upgrades.

Baker Hughes will supply NovaLT16 and Frame 5 turbines for Kodiak projects targeting up to 1.8 GW of behind-the-meter power.

Mitsubishi Power will supply parts and services for Ilihan’s M501G fleet to support reliability on the Luzon grid.

Hanwha Power commissioned three fuel gas compressors for the 950-MW Trumbull Energy Center, marking its entry into the U.S. market.

Chevron will supply Microsoft’s West Texas data center with 2.67 GW of dedicated gas-fired power under a 20-year agreement, tapping turbines from GE Vernova and Solar Turbines for the build out.

Turbomachinery professionals should expect methane performance, MRV compatibility, and contract-grade emissions documentation to become increasingly important in equipment specifications, aftermarket service scopes, and long-term maintenance strategies.

Baker Hughes will provide lifecycle turbomachinery support and digital monitoring for Nigeria’s ANOH Gas Processing Plant.

GE Vernova will supply 9HA gas turbines and generators for EVN’s 1.6-GW Quang Trach II LNG combined-cycle power plant.

John Crane has introduced a validated methodology that improves drivetrain analysis accuracy by treating torsional disc coupling stiffness as dynamic rather than fixed, reducing failure risk and commissioning uncertainty for operators in oil and gas, LNG, and power generation.

Siemens Energy has been awarded the turbine supply contract for the 2.6 GW Taweelah C IPP project in Abu Dhabi, marking the first deployment of HL-class gas turbines in the UAE and the OEM's third consecutive equipment contract on the Taweelah site.

Velo3D and Aurelia Technologies have announced a strategic partnership to qualify metal additive manufacturing for next-generation gas turbine components, targeting design consolidation, faster iteration, and supply chain resilience.

The Merom simple-cycle natural gas project in Indiana becomes one of the first large-scale power development deals to be built around secondary-market turbine procurement — a direct response to OEM delivery windows now stretching to 2030.

Although the ruling only affects tariffs imposed under the emergency IEEPA statute, the action may point to future scrutiny of tariffs imposed under national security claims, like the ones affecting raw material imports for the turbo industry.

With U.S. power demand increasing due to data centers and ruled-out renewables, fogging and wet compression technology can help generate power quickly and inexpensively.

Fogging and wet compression systems not only apply to gas turbines across power generation, oil and gas, and petrochemicals, but can also aid diesel and gas reciprocating engines.

The November/December 2025 issue covers steam turbine blade dynamics and aerodynamics, gas turbine bucket repair, a TPS 2025 recap, a Q&A with Ebara Elliott Energy, and much more.

Per Thomas Mee, installing fogging and wet compression technology may extract 10 – 20% more power output from the existing gas turbine fleet, countering longer lead times.

Although the upstream and midstream compressor markets are currently outperforming downstream, historic economic cycles suggest that a recession may arrive by 2031.

The relocation of North American manufacturing is driving the industrial compression trend in the Asia-Pacific region, as more gas and air compressors are needed to support growth.

Anthony Brough and Christean Kapp of Dora Partners & Co. address their new partnership with Turbomachinery International and highlight the centrifugal and reciprocating compressor markets.

Due to the low mole weight of hydrogen, one must increase impeller tip speed to generate higher pressure ratios and reduce overall stages.

With new power plants taking longer to come online, EthosEnergy helps customers extend their current assets through condition monitoring, refurbishment, and a commitment to efficiency.

Turbine Services Ltd. allows EthosEnergy to shorten component lead times, while the Operations & Maintenance division’s success is credited to reliability and consistency.

According to the CEO, EthosEnergy addresses long gas turbine-lead times and increasing power demand through maintenance, repair, overhaul, and lifecycle extension.

The May/June 2025 issue spotlights the gas turbine market, deep-diving into order activity, the impact of surging power demand, and how the industry is responding.

Matt Gentry of Airflow Sciences says faster processing speeds and improved computing allow flow models to present turbine data more quickly and accurately.

The March/April issue focuses on maintenance and repair and how data and AI are impacting the field and highlights our latest Turbo Tour.

The January/February 2025 issue gives readers an update on software and controls under the lens of AI and ML, the digitalization of compressor maintenance, and more.

This year, the turbomachinery industry was characterized by several trends—from technological innovation to gas turbines’ supporting role in renewably integrated grids.
