Co-Generation Plant
The gas-fired 125 MW combined-cycle cogeneration plant was designed to generate electrical power for export to a local utility grid and to produce steam for a lumber drying plant. Anvil provided engineering and design services within the client's stage-gated project development process-from early conceptual design through detailed engineering, including:
- Conceptual engineering and cost estimating
- Definition and detailed engineering and design
- On-site Field Support during construction and startup.
Anvil Scope Highlights
- Permitting, FERC application, and site and plant layout
- Heat cycle analysis and plant process and control
- Stress analysis
- Foundation design for all equipment and building
- Electrical and instrumentation control for the plant
Gas Turbine Power Generation
Anvil engineered the installation of a Frame 6 turbine generator to provide 40 MW of generation capacity with power generated at 35kV and distributed to 3 central processing facilities. Project also included upgrading overhead power lines, and installing new distribution equipment and load shed systems.
Anvil provided engineering and design services-from early conceptual design through startup. Anvil services included:
- Conceptual engineering and cost estimating
- Definition and detailed design
- All Procurement
- On-site Field Support during construction and startup.
Innovations
- First Frame 6 installation at grade, which eliminated heavy steel-base substructure and significantly reduced costs
- Subsurface cooling used a thermal siphon system with radiators, a well-established, proven technology.
- Incorporated a fine water mist fire protection system to replace Halon and CO2, providing a safe and environmentally sound improvement to North Slope fire protection.
