Baker Hughes, Frontier Infrastructure Announce Partnership to Accelerate Development of Carbon Capture and Storage, Data Center Projects in the U.S.
03 Março 2025 - 10:00AM
Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR), an energy technology company, and
Frontier Infrastructure (“Frontier”), a Tailwater Capital portfolio
company and a leading developer of low-carbon infrastructure across
the U.S. Mountain West and Texas, on Monday announced a strategic
partnership to accelerate the deployment of large-scale carbon
capture and storage (CCS) and power solutions in the U.S. As part
of the agreement, Baker Hughes will provide innovative technologies
and resources in support of the development of large-scale CCS,
power generation, and data center projects.
Frontier is leading the development of the Sweetwater Carbon
Storage Hub (“SCS Hub”), one of the largest open-source carbon
sequestration assets in the country. Spanning nearly 100,000 acres
in Wyoming, the hub is designed to support industrial emitters
across the region and ethanol facilities across the Midwest
utilizing its CO2-by-rail strategy, establishing Frontier as a new
standard for scalable carbon storage infrastructure. Frontier
currently holds three Class VI permits and has commenced drilling
activities on its first wells with first injection commencing
year-end 2025.
As part of the agreement, Baker Hughes will provide technology
solutions to support the development of the SCS Hub and future
infrastructure projects. By leveraging its key technologies for
well design, CO₂ compression, and long-term monitoring, Baker
Hughes will help optimize project execution, allowing Frontier to
move forward with greater efficiency and financial certainty.
To further enhance reliable, lower-carbon energy solutions,
Frontier is expanding its infrastructure footprint with new
behind-the-meter power generation capacity. This includes the
development of 256 megawatts (MW) of gas-fired generation, designed
to meet the increasing power demands across Wyoming, the broader
Mountain West, and Texas — particularly driven by the rapid
expansion of data centers and industrial operations. Baker Hughes’
industrial NovaLT™ gas turbines will be deployed to support power
generation, ensuring efficient and flexible energy delivery for
Frontier.
“With energy demand rising across the country, industrial
customers need scalable, low-carbon solutions, and Frontier’s
expanded infrastructure will deliver exactly that,” said Robby
Rockey, president and co-CEO of Frontier Infrastructure. “By
integrating gas-fired energy with the potential for permanent
carbon storage, we are creating a direct, reliable power solution
tailored to evolving industrial needs. Baker Hughes’ leadership in
turbine technology, drilling services, and CCS innovation makes
them an ideal partner in executing this vision.”
“Baker Hughes is committed to delivering innovative solutions
that support increasing energy demand, in part driven by the rapid
adoption of AI, while ensuring we continue to enable the
decarbonization of the industry,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, chairman
and CEO of Baker Hughes. “Working with Frontier Infrastructure
represents a significant opportunity to demonstrate how Baker
Hughes’ portfolio is uniquely positioned to support CCUS projects
for lower-carbon industrial and energy development.”
Baker Hughes expects orders, in relation to this agreement, as
Frontier projects progress. Frontier is a portfolio company of
Tailwater Capital, a private equity firm specializing in integrated
energy and environmental infrastructure investments. Frontier was
advised by Jefferies LLC as financial adviser and Sidley Austin LLP
as legal adviser.
