Data center provider and bitcoin miner Mindstream Energy is planning to build a 400MW, gas-powered data center in a Jordanian gas field.The planned 245-acre campus will be developed by the company’s Jordanian subsidiary – Mindstream Jordan LLC – and will be located in Al-Risha, a gas field located close to Jordan's eastern border with Iraq.An AI-generated concept plan shows that the campus could also include a solar farm.Mindstream founder and CEO Mark Thimmig said on LinkedIn that the firm had also secured a “long-term” natural gas supply agreement with Jordan’s National Petroleum Company for the project.Mindstream says that it will serve demand for AI, HPC, sovereign cloud, and advanced digital infrastructure in Jordan and MENA more broadly. Jordan is not a major data center hub.A construction timeline was not provided, but Mindstream claims that its “modular deployment models” allow it to build “new compute capacity… in as little as three to four months from order to operational delivery.”Although a partner firm was not explicitly mentioned, the company does have an existing partnership with Edge data center firm Armada.Mindstream, a US-based data center company, focuses on pairing cheap natural gas with modular data centers.Earlier this year, the company announced that it would be launching “initial operations” for a data center project with the Missaukee Oil and Gas Company and Armada in Q1 2026.DCD has reached out to Mindstream about the project’s progress.
