LNG liquefaction and export operator scaling operations in South Texas
NextDecade operates the Rio Grande LNG facility with 48 million tonnes per annum of liquefaction capacity under construction and development. The tech stack reveals a capital-intensive, heavily regulated operation: SAP dominates enterprise resource planning (S/4HANA, EWM, MM, PM modules), industrial controls run on PLCs and distributed control systems, and project/financial planning layers stack Primavera, OneStream, and Anafick. Hiring is accelerating across engineering and ops roles, with active projects centered on control system upgrades, regulatory compliance, and permit-to-work automation—signaling a push to operationalize the facility while managing the complexity of FERC applications and ISO compliance.
