Diesel power plants are intended for emergency and backup power supply and used in any industries, as well as in the housing and utility and agricultural sector. DPPs can be used as primary sources of electric power in remote and hard-to reach regions (settlements of the Far North), as well as at initial phases of industrial facilities development (oil and gas fields, construction sites of industrial projects).
Gas engine power plants are used as primary sources of electric power for customers’ facilities. They can operate both in the isolated (island) mode or parallel to the power grid. Main advantages of gas engine power plants:
KAMSS Group carries on cooperation with Siemens and its structural division Dresser-Rand in the field of construction of power generating facilities on the basis of gas turbines.
Dresser-Rand’s KG2 gas turbines with a single unit capacity of 1.6 to 2.0 MW are one of most undemanding gas turbines in terms of gas fuel quality and can be operated on heavy oils such as conditioned crude oil. The turbines can also run on associated gas with minimum requirements to treatment and with a hydrogen sulfide content up to 0.5 mg/m3.
The use of Siemens SGT industrial gas turbines with a power rating of 5 to 57 MW is an optimal solution for the construction of power parks of infrastructure projects where maximum effectiveness, high package efficiency, minimum operating costs and high reliability are required.
KAMSS Group can offer the mentioned turbine generators in containerized and modular building designs.
The construction documentation for the container and building are developed with the support of turbine generator manufacturers—Siemens and Dresser-Rand.
The primary goal of infrastructure projects is to provide a short payback period and maximum efficiency of the project within the entire life cycle.
This is achieved by selecting the generator sets having the best efficiency and operating cost parameters. The mandatory prerequisites for achieving the maximum economic results include:
In some instances, when having the Specifications for grid parallel operation approved is impossible or the costs of implementing the Specifications question economic feasibility of the project, the only option left is the isolated mode of power plant operation. In such a case it is critical not only to correctly determine the total installed power of the power plant on the basis of load curves, but the mode of operation and single-unit capacity as well. All these issues are to be solved comprehensively and accounted for in the capital expenses and future operating costs. A comprehensive approach will ensure optimal generation conditions for both electric energy and heat.
KAMSS Group has the required competencies and experience in addressing the issues of technical and economic efficiency of power generation facilities on a comprehensive basis.
The development strategy for remote oil fields is of specific nature and requires deliberate decisions. Exploration drilling, pilot well operation with pilot OTU erection, design field operation conditions are the main three stages of an oil field development.
Most efficient sources of electric energy differ depending on the stage of oil field development.
The only possible source of electric energy at the exploration drilling stage is mobile diesel power plants of containerized design.
At the stage of pilot operation, with the pilot OTU built and first oil extraction with associated gas production in progress, it is efficient, depending on the peculiar features of a specific field, to install diesel power plants operating on crude oil or gas engine power plants operating on associated oil gas. At this stage, the construction of containerized power parks as several startup complexes is expedient. Further expansion (erection of startup complexes) will continue depending on the actual increase in oil production. Such approach will significantly reduce capital expenses and time to develop the field energy sources.
As soon as the field reaches its design production level and once construction of the primary field infrastructure is completed, the following energy source options are possible:
At this field development stage, special attention should be paid to the associated fuel gas conditioning technology required for gas engine generators and turbines application. Quality conditioning will provide for a higher power output of gas engine generators and a longer overhaul cycle for turbines.
KAMSS has the required expertise allowing us to implement projects at any stage of oil field development.
Gazprom PJSC and its subsidiaries in the field of small-scale power generation tend to buy containerized power plants, both diesel ones to be used as emergency power supplies and gas engine ones to be used as backup power supplies.
Gazprom’s requirements are strictly regulated in terms of equipment reliability indicators and ensuring the required parameters of energy sources.
KAMSS Group guarantees the compliance with gas industry requirements. Compliance with all the requirements is also confirmed by full-scale testing of DPP and GEPP at the Company’s test bench.
KAMSS is engaged in turnkey construction of energy complexes (implementation of EPC contracts). Turnkey construction is the form of a unified system of responsibilities in respect of a project that includes all work stages. Such an approach provides for lower construction expenses and shorter periods of energy facilities erection due an optimal mode of design and construction processes. This results in timely detection and elimination of deficiencies, prompt adjustment of solutions. Our advantages:
Successful and rational design of power generating facilities is the basis of quality construction, commissioning and further operation. KAMSS Group is focused on the final result in the course of its work and ensures the full support for all project implementation stages. During design activities, we ensure:
