Global LNG demand is rising, new export capacity is coming online, and project developers are balancing growing demand with increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reliability and project economics.
To examine those trends, COMPRESSORtech2 recently hosted its latest webinar, “What’s Next for LNG?”, featuring two industry experts with experience spanning LNG compression technology, plant operations and global market developments. The webinar is now available to watch on demand.
The webinar features:
Marybeth McBain, Product Strategy Lead for Siemens Energy’s single-shaft centrifugal compressor portfolio, who discusses compressor technology, equipment strategy and how OEMs are preparing for the next generation of liquefaction projects.

Mehdy Touil, an LNG specialist with extensive international experience in liquefaction operations and plant performance, who offers a global perspective on the operational and technical trends shaping LNG development.
- Topics covered during the discussion include:
- The outlook for global LNG markets and new liquefaction capacity.
- Technology trends in LNG compression systems.
- Equipment selection and compressor strategy for new LNG facilities.
- Improving plant efficiency, reliability and lifecycle economics.
- Lessons learned from operating LNG plants around the world.
- The growing role of natural gas in meeting rising electricity demand, including power for data centers.
Audience questions on compressor technology, project development and operational best practices.
The discussion comes as LNG investment continues to accelerate worldwide. New export terminals are under construction in North America, Qatar and other regions, while operators seek technologies that can improve availability, reduce operating costs and support increasingly complex liquefaction projects. Compression systems remain central to achieving those objectives, making equipment selection and operational strategy more important than ever.
