Technology we use

Natural gas as a fuel for base load power generation is regarded as the cleanest of all carbon-based fuels. It is estimated that natural gas flaring associated with oil production expends far more natural gas than power generation.

The power generation technology proposed in this project is based on the use of aero- derivative gas turbines. Gigajoule Floating Solutions is an electricity generation company. It creates fully operational, gas-based power plants, floating on barges.

We have spent four years developing three project sites which are capable of immediate implementation, using the floating power plant technology on a bespoke basis. Each project is designed for a 528MW installation.The technology is best-of-breed utilizing the Siemens GT A65 (Rolls Royce Trent) 66MW gas turbine which is an aero-derivative engine with class-leading efficiency.

The turbine is coupled to a generator and modularized. Two modular power generation units are placed on a single barge. Four barges go into each project. The barges with all ancillary plant for the modular units, are built at a UK shipyard to the highest standards imposed by either of Lloyds, DNV or ABS.

The site works in-country, is undertaken by a large international corporate civil engineering contractor and includes the dry docks into which the barges will be placed, the gas connections to the feedstock supplier and the transmission line connection to the Federal evacuation yard.

We have a detailed economic model which confirms the efficiency, viability and profitability of the projects.
