Fuel gas compressor unit for UEC-UMPO bench: the set of customer acceptance tests are being conducted

29 March 2019

At the site of UEC-UMPO test bench, the company ServicENERGAS (part of ENERGAS Group) completes works on commissioning of booster compressor unit. BCU is designed for uninterrupted fuel gas feeding into the testable gas-turbine engines (GTE) of type AL-31ST according to the set parameters on purity, pressure, temperature and flow rate.



BCU, supplied by the ENERGAS will compress gas to the required operating level (2.8…3.2 MPa) and feed it to the gas generator of GTE in the process of their testing. The equipment was developed on a special project and manufactured for operating under high intensity of starts and shutdowns. Capacity of BCU is 6,500 m3 / h.

Currently, there is conducted set of customer acceptance tests of the unit. Under the control of bench's specialists there is checked the operability of process, compressor, and electrical equipment as well as automated control and regulation system.

In the future, engineers of the LLC ServicENERGAS will carry out a course of technical consultations for the BCU's operating personnel (operators).

This project is being implemented within upgrade of bench of the PJSC UEC-Ufa Motor-Building Production Association. Here are equivalent-cyclic tests of gas-turbine drives used in gas pumping units and power plants.
