April 5 (Reuters) - Oilfield services firm Baker Hughes ( BKR )

said on Friday it will supply electric-driven

liquefaction technologies to Cedar LNG in Canada.

The company has been benefiting from equipment supply

contracts from new LNG-producing facilities as energy firms are

betting on long-term demand for the super-chilled commodity.

Cedar LNG project, which refers to a proposed floating

liquefied natural gas, is a joint venture between midstream

service provider Pembina Pipeline Corp ( PBA ) and Haisla

Nation in Canada.

The award, which was booked in the first quarter of 2024,

will have the oilfield services company supply a range of

turbomachinery equipment to Cedar LNG.

Baker said it received the order from procurement and

construction company Black & Veatch.
