mtpa, and Technip Energies’ “SnapLNG” with
a production capacity of 2 to 3 mtpa.
Technip Energies and Baker Hughes are
recognised industry leaders in the LNG
space. The agreement builds on their long-
standing collaboration and proven track
record of executing LNG projects, recognising
the important growth in mid-size LNG as
demand increases for modular LNG projects
capable of generating more gas capacity.
