Honeywell to supply liquefaction technology and equipment for Rio Grande LNG expansion

Honeywell secured a contract to supply its liquefaction technology and equipment for additional trains at NextDecade’s Rio Grande LNG project in Texas. The agreement, executed with engineering, procurement, and construction contractor Bechtel Energy, covers Train 4 and Train 5 at the Brownsville facility. Honeywell will supply its coil wound heat exchanger equipment and C3MR liquefaction process technology, aiming to optimize production, improve reliability, and reduce operating costs. The addition of these two trains is expected to increase total LNG production capacity at Rio Grande LNG by more than 66%, from 18 million tonnes per annum to 30 million tonnes per annum, adding 12 million tonnes per annum. All five trains are expected to become operational by mid-2031, supporting global energy security as demand for energy increases.
