Load Test for Gas Turbine Manufacturer
After securing the order to supply three 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 Hire
Aggreko’s load bank 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.
Load Testing
Aggreko’s turnkey package gave the customer confidence that
their equipment would function properly. In addition, the load bank
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.
