OREANDA-NEWS. October 5, 2012. Aviadvigatel OJSC and LUKOIL- Energoengineering Ltd. concluded the contract for the delivery of eight modular gas turbine generating sets of 200 MW total capacity for the demand of LUKOIL-Permnefteorgsintez. Having built their own power generation, the LUKOIL's Perm oil refinery will be able to provide for the demand for electric energy and heat of its developing production.

Within the framework of the concluded contract, Perm engine builders undertake to deliver eight GTES-25PA of 25 MW unit capacity to LUKOIL-Energoengineering by the end of 2013. The genset deliveries will be carried out in two stages ‒ the first four equipment sets in July 2013, the second equipment lineup will come to the customer in November of the same year.

The eight GTES-25PA will be completed by two ones and installed in four frame-panel buildings. The similar equipment layout plan was used successfully many times by Perm specialists at facilities of LUKOIL-Zapadnaya Sibir. Arrangement solutions and the Aviadvigatel philosophy of the genset construction developed jointly with LUKOIL specialists stood the test of time at Western Siberia deposits.

Aviadvigatel has already the implemented project of 25 MW genset as part of the Ufa CHPP No. 1 on its credit side. LUKOIL-Energoengineering's power generation has some differences:
for the first time in practice of developing the power generation equipment Aviadvigatel specialists integrated the PS-90GP-25 engine fitted with the gas generator of the PS-90A2 engine into  the GTES-25PA. This will enable to increase the power of the genset from 22.5 MW to 25 MW,
at the wish of the customer the genset is equipped with the Siemens generator and Voith gearbox.
the GTES-25PA's will operate on dry stripped gas (the refinement product of associated petroleum gas) in the cogeneration cycle. The heat and electricity output by the gensets are intended to use for the demand of the enterprise.

Each GTES-25PA is equipped with automated management and control systems that provide the centralized management at every stage of operation by a single operator. Regarding the design, the GTES-25PA's are made from separate turnkey container-type block-modules that are assembled at the operation site without disassembling for revision. This meets the calls of the times and is one of up-to-date engineering solutions of the design of Aviadvigatel gas turbine generating sets.
