Description

  1. Overview
    1. Inventory number: E-3511
    2. 100 MW power barge currently moored.
    3. Westinghouse W501D5 "Econopac" equipment installed on the barge.
  2. Gas Turbine And Enclosure
    1. Gas turbine and enclosure.
    2. Generator and enclosure.
    3. Starting motor (4,160 V, 60 Hz).
    4. Air filter housing.
    5. Mechanical package.
    6. Pipe rack.
    7. Electrical package.
  3. Electrical And Switchgear
    1. Generator circuit breaker (SF6).
    2. Line-side cubicle and AVR.
    3. ISO phase bus duct from line-side cubicle to generator circuit breaker.
    4. ISO phase bus duct from circuit breaker to step-up transformer.
    5. Step-up transformer (13.8 / 132 kV).
    6. 2 x auxiliary transformers (13,800/4160 & 4160/480).
    7. Amp-guard switchboard for auxiliary high voltage systems.
  4. Ancillary Systems
    1. Fuel treatment module (2 x centrifuges not commissioned).
    2. Compressor water-wash module.
    3. Rotor air fin fan cooler.
    4. Lubricating oil fan coolers.
  5. Operating History And Condition
    1. Running history: 12,327 hours - 1,497 starts.
    2. In service 1994 - not run since April 2002 but with full preventative maintenance carried out as per OEMs recommendations.
    3. Gas turbine currently set up for distillate and naphtha firing; future conversion to natural gas or dual firing should present no major problem.
  6. Power Delivery And Transformers
    1. Power is presently delivered to the grid at 132 kV through a "Prolec" 120 MVA step-up transformer and HV switchyard.
    2. The original 13.8/110 kV ABB transformer is included in the sale and is stored on board the barge.
    3. Cooling radiators and FA fans are stored on shore.
    4. This provides the powerplant with flexibility in HV power, which can accordingly be delivered onshore at any new location (e.g. at +/- 110, 125, 132 or 138 kV).
