industry
Erlangen 2006-03-01
Siemens Power Generation (PG) has secured orders
from Azerbaijan, Russia and Hungary for turbomachinery equipment for the
oil and gas industry. Five gensets are for the Russian company
Naryanmarneftegaz. Three gas turbine-driven compressor packages were
ordered by MOL in Hungary and two gas turbine compressor trains are for
the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR). The total order value is
approximately EUR 80 million.
The five SGT-600 gensets for Russia will be delivered to the
Yuzhno-Khylchuyu oil field, presently under development in northern
Russia. Construction and commissioning of the five units is scheduled
for completion by the summer of 2007.
The three compressor trains for MOL Natural Gas Storage of Budapest in
Hungary will be equipped with SGT-100 gas turbines. The packages,
comprising three dual shaft gas turbines and three direct-driven
compressors, are to be installed at Hajduszoboszlo, Hungary. The
machines, based on proven components from the Siemens PG portfolio have
been designed for maximum efficiency and economy. Delivery is scheduled
for autumn 2006.
In Azerbaijan, Siemens PG has secured an order for two compressor trains
each comprising one SGT-400 gas turbine driver and a two-body
compressor. They will be installed on an existing platform in the
Gunashli oil field in the Azerbaijan waters of the Caspian Sea and will
be operated by the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR). The units
will form part of a new gas compression module, which will be added to
prolong the production life of the field. Delivery of the equipment is
scheduled for November 2006.
