Loadbank Rental for Gas Turbine Manufacturer
After securing the order to supply 3 gas turbines for a new gas
production platform, a major turbine manufacturer contacted Aggreko
for a load test solution. Each turbine rated at 27MW with a voltage
of 11kV 60Hz and a power factor of 0.9. This power is equivalent to
supplying a small town of approximately 9,000 homes.
Loadbank Rental
Aggreko’s loadbank rental solution
gave the customer the ability to supply load from 0 to 100% in
order to check various turbine parameters such as vibration,
temperatures, fuel consumption and performance of ventilation.
Turnkey Power Package
Aggreko’s turnkey package gave the customer confidence that
their equipment would function properly. In addition, the
loadbank test possibly prevented an expensive
turbine failure after its installation of the gas platform at the
seabed. Aggreko’s solution alleviated our customer’s concern over
equipment efficiency allowing them to concentrate on other aspects
of their project.
