The RasGas (II) facility is located in Qatar.
In a statement GE Energy said, “[Our] oil and gas business will provide two Frame 7EA mechanical drive gas turbines, two Frame 6B gas turbine generator packages, one Frame 5D residue gas compressor package, and one Rotoflow Frame 60 turbo expander-compressor.
All the gas turbines will be equipped with Dry Low NOx combustion systems to meet the stringent NOx emissions levels now required in Qatar.”
“The equipment will be supplied through a joint venture including Chiyoda Corp of Japan and Snamprogetti S.p.A. of Italy, which has received the engineering, procurement and construction contract for the plant.
“The new LNG Train 5 will be built adjacent to the existing LNG Train 3 that was completed in December of 2003, and Train 4 now being constructed. GE Energy also has supplied equipment for these two projects. The Train 5 project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2006,” it added.
