Turbine overhaul in 2004;

The unit was shipped to the USA and was changed to dual fuel, combustion chambers, new HPT, LPT and latest GE updates were completed. 3200 total hours since conversion and all 3200 hours has been on natural gas.

After unit returned from Major in the USA, the Inlet cooling system ( to increase output) and boiler heater were introduced with a total operation hours to date of: 2800. These parts received a scheduled inspection in May 2008.

Natural gas compressor/booster was introduced after the Major, to raise the previous values from 0.85MPA to 4.6Mpa, with a flow rate of:12,000 cbm/hr, total running hours: 3200 hour.

LM6000PA Simple Cycle Gas Turbine Unit

LM6000PA Simple Cycle Gas Turbine using dual fuel, gas and or Diesel Oil with rated generating power of 42MW.

The unit is a LM6000PA air-derivative manufactured by GE and the generator is manufactured by Brush Company. The set is manufactured by the original S&S Company; unit purchased by GE and was put into operation in December 1995

The gas conversion project was completed by the end of 2004. The total generating hours are 11,000 hours, of those hours, 3200 hours were operated by gas. The number starts are 1940

The unit was sent back to GE in Houston for maintenance at the end of 2004, upgraded with a new combustor which can use gas and diesel oil, new HPT and new LPT were applied. All of the service and product bulletins were implemented by GE by the end of 2004; the equipment is in good condition.

The cornpany has made strict daily and periodical maintenance of the unit, In- line with the criteria of GE.

The unit is equipped with Air Inlet chilling/heating system which adjusts the temperature of the gas to the standard criteria during summer and is heated up by a boiler in winter to avoid ice. The operation hour is 2800. The unit is comprehensively maintained once a year and the last time was in May of 2008.

The gas system is equipped by a set of fuel gas boosting compressor unit, which mainly uses to boost from 0.85MPA to about 4.6MPA with a rated flux of 12,000 standard squares per hour. The operation hours are 3200, the unit is meticulously maintained every year and the unit performs well and is in good condition.
