Baker Hughes has secured a long-term service agreement with ANOH Gas Processing Company (AGPC) to provide lifecycle and digital support services for the ANOH Gas Processing Plant in Nigeria, reinforcing its role in the country’s expanding natural gas sector.
Under the agreement, Baker Hughes will supply spare parts, carry out maintenance and repair work, and provide engineering advisory services for the plant’s critical turbomachinery assets, including two NovaLT16 gas turbines. The company will also deploy its iCenter digital platform, powered by Cordant technology, to enable remote monitoring and diagnostics aimed at improving equipment reliability, operational efficiency, and overall plant performance. Engineering and maintenance activities will be supported through Baker Hughes’ service center in Port Harcourt, where locally based teams will deliver lifecycle services for the facility.
Maria Claudia Borras, Chief Growth and Experience Officer and Interim Executive Vice President of Industrial and Energy Technology at Baker Hughes, said the agreement reflects the strong partnership between the two companies and highlights confidence in the company’s long-term service capabilities. She noted that combining regional expertise with advanced digital technologies would help deliver reliable and efficient energy solutions while supporting Nigeria’s efforts to expand the use of lower-carbon fuel sources.

ANOH Gas Processing Plant
The latest contract builds on an existing relationship between Baker Hughes and AGPC that began in 2019, when the company supplied an integrated power island solution for the ANOH Gas Processing Plant. The package included two NovaLT16 gas turbines—the first units of their kind deployed in Sub-Saharan Africa—along with compressors and gear systems.
The ANOH Gas Processing Plant is a key component of Nigeria’s strategy to increase domestic natural gas utilization for power generation and industrial development. Designed as a two-phase project, the facility will have a total processing capacity of 600 million standard cubic feet of gas per day once both phases are completed.
The plant processes wet gas from the ANOH field into lean gas and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), while stabilized condensate produced during processing will be exported through the Bonny Export Terminal. Phase one, which became operational with its first gas delivery in January 2026, includes gas processing, compression, LPG recovery, condensate stabilization, and associated infrastructure. Development of the second phase will depend on the availability of additional gas supplies from the ANOH field and nearby reserves.
AGPC Managing Director James Makinde said dependable turbomachinery performance is essential to maintaining efficient plant operations and achieving Nigeria’s domestic energy objectives. He added that the partnership with Baker Hughes would support the long-term reliability of the facility as it ramps up production.
The agreement further strengthens Baker Hughes’ presence in Nigeria, where the company continues to expand its service and digital technology offerings to support critical energy infrastructure. By combining local engineering expertise with predictive digital monitoring, the company aims to enhance equipment availability, reduce unplanned downtime, and improve operational performance throughout the plant’s lifecycle.
