Baker Hughes Signs Parts, Repair, Engineering Contract for Tangguh LNG

Baker Hughes obtained a 90-month service award for bp’s Tangguh LNG plant in Papua Barat, Indonesia, which covers spare parts, repair services, and field-service engineering support for the facility’s turbomachinery: heavy-duty gas turbines, steam turbines, and compressors for three LNG trains. Baker Hughes is cooperating with PT Imeco Inter Sarana, a local partner, to deliver local content per the agreement.

The long-term service agreement will ensure reliable operations for bp’s Tangguh LNG facility, which plays a key role in Indonesia’s energy strategy by supplying reliable energy for the Asia-Pacific region. By maintaining the performance and availability of critical turbomachinery, LNG operation may continue uninterrupted.

"This long-term service agreement with bp for Tangguh LNG is a testament to our continued partnership and commitment to progressing energy development in Indonesia," said Tiffany Pitts, Vice President of Gas Technology Services at Baker Hughes. "Our advanced technology and expertise will help ensure the optimal performance of the Tangguh facility, which is crucial for meeting the region's energy demands."

Baker Hughes and bp have partnered since 2009 for the Tangguh LNG project and, in 2024, the company supplied additional critical power and compression systems. Also, Baker Hughes recently expanded its service capability in the Asia-Pacific region, addressing its energy expansion and transition requirements.

Asia-Pacific Expansion

In July 2025, Baker Hughes and Petroliam Nasional Berhad entered a collaborative partnership to enhance local supply-chain capabilities and explore implementing a variety of technology solutions to support the delivery of Asia’s energy expansion and transition. Baker Hughes is undergoing assessments to identify the best location for placing its new expanded aeroderivative gas turbine services footprint in the country.

Baker Hughes announced plans to expand on its existing services footprint in Malaysia to develop a full aeroderivative gas turbine module repair services facility, inclusive of disassembly, assembly, grinding, and testing capabilities. Currently, Baker Hughes operates two turbomachinery services facilities in Malaysia: an aeroderivative gas turbine repairs facility in Port Klang, Selangor; and a heavy-duty gas turbine technology repairs, field service, and digital services facility.

With an installed base of over 600 gas turbines and continued expected growth given the energy expansion, these augmented service capabilities will provide enhanced service to customers across the region to accelerate service turnaround time and enable continued best-in-class reliability and availability.

Turbines for Data Centers

In June, Baker Hughes was awarded a contract to deliver 16 NovaLT gas turbines to power Frontier Infrastructure Holdings’ data center projects in Wyoming and Texas—the turbines will provide up to 270 MW of power. The award also includes associated equipment, including gears and BRUSH Power Generation four-pole generators to power dedicated energy islands at Frontier’s behind-the-meter power generation sites. NovaLT gas turbines can start up and run on different fuels, including natural gas, varying blends of natural gas and hydrogen, and 100% hydrogen.
