a combined gas turbine and steam turbine integrated electric drive system
(COGES) used onboard four Celebrity
Cruises and four Royal Caribbean
International cruise ships; and six
LM2500+ and four LM2500 gas turbines are used in CODAG arrangements aboard four Princess Cruises,
one Cunard Line and four Holland
American Line cruise ships.
GE gas turbines can also be applied
on high-speed pleasurecraft and yachts
in configurations similar to those used
on cruise ships. GE gas turbines power
the high-speed yachts Katana and
Destriero (LM1600), and the Estasea
(LM2500). a

Gas Turbine Power Range
Electric Generator Drive: 0.2 to 18.0 MW
Cogen System Launched
Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. (KHI)
has launched its GPC80D cogeneration
system powered by the company’s
recently developed M7A-03, 7.0 MW-class gas turbine, which is based on the
M7A series. The M7A-03 gas turbine
incorporates the various technologies
demonstrated in the development of the
20 MW-class L20A high-performance
gas turbine, which features a thermal
efficiency of 35%, according to
Kawasaki. In addition to the high thermal efficiency, other features include: a
DLE (dry low emission) system employing a lean premix combustion method
that reduces NOx to meet the strict
Japanese regulatory standard of 80 ppm
(02 = 0%), without the use of any denitrification equipment and improved
durability through the use of the latest
materials and cooling technology.
The GPC80D features an output of
7. 23 MW, an electrical efficiency (at
generator end) of 32. 4 % and a total
thermal efficiency of 81.7%. Steam
production is 15. 7 t/h at a pressure of
0.83 MPaG.
Orders and Deliveries
KHI has announced several orders
and deliveries of gas turbines and combined-cycle power plants in the last
year. One announcement was for the
delivery of a 12 MW combined-cycle
power plant (CCPP) for the Ajinomoto
Indonesian overseas subsidiary factory.
The equipment includes a M7A-02 gas
turbine and heat recovery boiler producing steam for the steam turbine.
The equipment has an electric power
output of 12 MW and is capable of producing steam at a rate of 55 t/h.
KHI also announced an order for a
gas turbine cogen (GTC) system from
Bridgestone Corp.’s Indonesian subsidiary, PT Bridgestone Tire Indonesia.
The system will be installed in the company’s Bekasi plant and includes a natural gas-fueled, 7.0 MW, M7A-02, gas
turbine utilizing a heat recovery steam
boiler. It will generate 6. 57 MW of electricity and supply 27. 5 t/h of steam to
the plant.
Kawasaki Gas Turbine Asia, (KGTA)
the company’s Kuala Lumpur-based
gas turbine sales and service base for
Southeastern/western Asia, worked
closely with Indonesian engineering
firm PT Euroasiatic to secure the order.
An order was also received by KHI for
a GTC system from PT Kurabo Man-unggal Textile Industries (Kumatex), a
wholly owned Indonesian subsidiary of
Kurabo Industries Ltd. The system consists of the M7A-02 gas turbine utilizing
natural gas and a heat recovery steam
boiler. It will generate 5. 5 MW of electricity and 13 t/h of steam, which will be
supplied to Kumatex’s production facilities, further enhancing its energy savings.
The system is scheduled to start up in
June 2007.
Kawasaki Machine Systems Ltd.
announced it received an order for a 1. 44
MW GTC system from Beijing District
Heating Group Co. Ltd. (BDHG),
China’s largest heat utility company,
working jointly with China Electric
Power Technology Import & Export
Corp. (CETIC). It is Kawasaki’s first
order from China for a cogeneration system using the Kawasaki gas turbine.
This system consists of a natural gas-fueled, 1. 5 MW, M1A-13D gas turbine
and a waste heat recovery boiler. The
system will be installed in BDHG’s heat
supply station located in Beijing to supply 1.440 MW of power and 4. 6 t/h of
steam to the Beijing West railway station and surrounding area.
KHI announced an order for a gas turbine power generation system from the
Malaysian methanol company, Petronas
Methanol (Labuan) Sdn Bhd (PML). The
system features natural gas-fueled L20A
gas turbines as its core components.
This order brings the total number of
orders for Kawasaki’s L20A gas turbine
power generation systems up to ten.
The system will be installed at PML’s
new methanol plant to be built in
Labuan and will supply 14 MW of electricity to the facility.
KHI announced that KGTA and the
Indonesian engineering firm PT Euroasiatic have jointly received an order for
two 6.0 MW cogen systems from the
Tangerang Plant of PT Pelita Cengkareng
Paper (Pelita), a paper company located
in suburban Jakarta, Indonesia.
The systems consist of two natural
gas-fueled GTC systems employing
M7A-02 turbines and two waste heat
recovery boilers. Operating at full capacity, the systems will cut energy costs by
supplying 12.0 MW of power and 30 t/h
of steam to Pelita’s production facilities.
The cogen systems are scheduled to be
completed in August 2007.
An order for a 15. 9 MW GTC system
was received by MC Shiohama Energy
Service Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Corp. The system
will be employed in the Shiohama area
facility’s on-site cogeneration project at
the Mitsubishi Chemical Corp. (MCC)
Yokkaichi Plant. The cogeneration system features the L20A high efficiency
gas turbine.
An on-site cogeneration project by
MC Kawajiri Energy Service Corp. is
currently under way at the MCC
Yokkaichi Plant’s Kawajiri area facility.
The project employs Kawasaki’s 35 MW
