The project is a Thermo-CCGT gas fuel 1140MW construction of two block combined heat and power (CHP) plants.
The overall project, which is based on the revamping of a conventional thermoelectrical power plant to be converted into a combined cycle, includes: three gas turbines with generators of 250MW each; three heat recovery steam generators (horizontal) with three pressure levels; one steam turbine with generator of 250MW; revamping of one steam turbine with electrical generator; one open cycle steam condenser taking cooling water; and revamping of one open cycle steam condenser taking cooling water.
The automation contract for this large project is valued at approximately Eur 3.6 million.
Invensys was selected over a competitive field of suppliers that included Siemens, ABB, Alstom, and Emerson.
The Invensys solution, which monitors and/or controls 28,000 I/O points, includes I/A Series automation systems, Triconex ESD systems, and Foxboro Foundation Fieldbus instrumentation.
Specific technologies include OPC, Foundation Fieldbus and Profibus DP.
The system is scheduled to be commissioned in April 2005.
