| Mott MacDonald is engineer for power plant in Iraq Mott MacDonald is owner's engineer for the conversion of Arbeel Power Plant in Erbil, Iraq from simple cycle to combined cycle. The project, on behalf of Mass Global Investment Company (MGI), will be the first combined cycle gas fired plant in Iraq. The existing plant consists of eight 9E gas turbines, manufactured by GE, operating in simple cycle. This project will convert the simple cycle plant to combined cycle by installing eight heat recovery steam generators, two steam turbine generators and auxiliary systems. The conversion will add 500MW to the plant's nominal existing output of 1000MW. It will feed into Iraq's power grid and supply additional power to the Kurdistan region as well as southern areas of the country. The Arbeel Power Plant is expected to be commissioned towards the latter part of 2014. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
