The relocation of a used gas turbine-generator set is very different from a new unit installation. Relocation projects are typically fast-tracked, requiring immediate equipment availability, and there is little time available for all the engineering and modification work that may be required.
Turbine Technology Services Corporation is uniquely positioned with the knowledge and expertise required for successful relocation projects, and our engineering team has the specialized skill set to provide a complete solution.
Since 1988, we have been involved in the relocation of more than 80 gas turbines in diverse locations throughout the world and have a depth of knowledge about the demands and requirements of such projects, including:
- Original plant disassembly
- Transportation and logistics
- New plant layout engineering
- Fuel conversions
- Frequency conversions
- Electrical one-line and protection engineering
- Emissions control and compliance
- Equipment upgrades and modifications

9 Frame 6 Power Barges: TTS was the EPC contractor for the relocation of these units from the Philippines to Nigeria. In addition to the basic relocation and commissioning work, the project also required 60/50Hz frequency conversions, fuel system conversions, emissions controls equipment, demin water plants and new control systems. The project was completed ahead of schedule. |

 8 Frame 7B Turbine-Generators: TTS provided extensive technical direction and project management for the relocation of these units from South Korea to sites in the USA. In addition to project supervision, TTS was also the overhaul and upgrade contractors for much of the work required to convert them from 7B/liquid fuel configuration, to 7E/gas fuel/low NOx combustor design. The first of these projects was completed in 8 months – from South Korea disassembly to USA operation.
4 Frame 7EA turbine Generator Sets: In 2009, TTS made history by being the first company to engineer and install Frame 7EA turbine –generators in a 50hz country (Kuwait). The commissioning of the units required a long and complex engineering process, much of which had to be performed at site in Kuwait. The frequency conversion required the addition of gearbox and auxiliaries, generator modifications, plant layout engineering, generator design and protection, plant electrical design, diesel starting systems, modifications to all on-base auxiliaries, controls engineering, etc.
The entire process was further complicated by the need to replace the existing natural gas-only DLN combustion system with a standard combustor, dual-fuel, water injected system.
