ENERGAS booster compressor station at CCGT of Mogilev CHPP-3: five years of reliable fuel gas supply for power generating unit
16 April 2019
Mogilev CHPP-3 will provide electricity for houses, industrial enterprises, administrative and domestic buildings at the north part of the city. Since June 2014 as a part of the power plant there is combined cycle gas turbine unit (CCGT).Power generating unit consists of two SGT-300 gas turbine units of Siemens with installed capacity of 7.5 MW of each, steam turbine with capacity of 3.5 MW and two waste-heat boilers with steam capacity of 17.5 ton / h. Overall efficiency of combined cycle gas turbine unit is 88%.

The high-performance CCGT operates in cogeneration mode and integrated into an existing process flow diagram. Electric capacity is 18.5 MW, thermal – 23.2 MW. The fuel for CCGT is natural gas.
In April 2014, at the same time with the commissioning of the first starting complex (gas turbine unit No. 2 and waste-heat boiler No. 2), a booster compressor station, supplied by ENERGAS, began its work here.
BCS performs compression of the fuel gas and its feeding to the turbines under required operating pressure of 1.9…2.6 MPa. BCS is composed of two compressor units (CU) of screw type; capacity of each is 3,000 m3 / h.

CU are placed in separate weatherproof shelters; they are equipped with individual ACS and group system of automated control with the function of transmitting data to APCS of upper level, as well as with two-level systems of capacity control.
Five years of successful operation confirm the quality and reliability of gas booster equipment.
In the course of operation, specialists of LLC ServicENERGAS (part of ENERGAS Group), according to the schedule coordinated with the customer, carry out a comprehensive maintenance of the compressor units.

REFERENCE. The upgrade project of Mogilev CHPP-3 by the construction of the CCGT was implemented by company Technoserv, the largest system integrator operating in Russia, CIS and Europe. Construction customer is RUE Mogilevenergo.
Earlier capacity of the facility was 210 Gcal / h without generating electricity. Currently CHPP able to produce 10% more heat and generate electric power in volume of 18.5 MW.
