Rolls-Royce to deliver more turbines for Nigerian projects
NIGERIA: Rolls-Royce will deliver another eight RB211 industrial gas
turbines for Nigeria's offshore oil and gas fields as part of contracts from
Total worth US$150 million.
The units, for a floating production, storage and offloading vessel in the
Usan field and a fixed platform in the Ofon field, bring the total number of
RB211s ordered by Total for use offshore Nigeria to 19. The packages for
Usan and Ofon are due for delivery to the module fabrication yards by the
fourth quarter of 2009.
The RB211 engines will be manufactured at the Rolls-Royce plant in Montreal,
Quebec. Packaging of the electrical generating sets and gas compression
units will take place at the company's Mount Vernon, Ohio facility.
Six of the RB211 gas turbine packages will be electrical generating sets,
three for each field, to provide up to 160 MW of electrical power for the
new installations. All of the packages will also feature exhaust mounted
waste heat recovery units. The remaining two sets will be gas compression
packages to export gas to another facility or to re-inject gas into the oil
field to enhance oil recovery in the Usan field.
The Usan field is 100 kilometers (62 miles) southeast of Bonny Island in
water depths from 750 to 850 meters (2,461 to 2,789 ft). The field is
scheduled to become operational in 2012 and produce around 180,000 b/d of
oil.
The second phase of the Ofon field development will increase output from
25,000 b/d to around 100,000 in 2012. Gas produced from Ofon will be piped
to the Amenam complex.
