- Scope includes two compression trains driven
by SGT-750 industrial gas turbines with dry-low emissions (DLE) combustion
systems
- Commissioning of
the trains slated for late 2021
Siemens
Energy was selected by engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC)
company, Enter Engineering Pte. Ltd., to supply two low-emission compression
trains for Phase I of the Gazli Underground Gas Storage (UGS) project in the Bukhara region of
Uzbekistan. The two trains will help extract up to 20 million standard cubic
meters per day (MMSm3/d) of stored gas in the Gazli field and
pressurize it for transportation by pipeline to domestic users in Uzbekistan
and export to China. The project marks
an essential step in helping the region sustainably meet domestic energy demand.
- Siemens Energy was awarded an engineering procurement construction (EPC) contract from
MISC Berhad for the supply of eight complete topside modules for a floating production, storage,
and offloading (FPSO) vessel
- The FPSO will operate in an oil field offshore South America and is scheduled for start-up in 2024
Siemens Energy was awarded a topside EPC contract by MISC Berhad for eight complete topside
modules that will provide sustainable, efficient, and environmentally friendly power generation,
transmission, and distribution, as well as gas processing and compression aboard an FPSO that will
operate offshore South America starting in 2024.
- Two jack-up rigs were retrofitted with Siemens Energy’s BlueVault™ lithium-ion energy storage system.
- Initial data show that the low-emission upgrades in batteries, data monitoring, and other efficiency measures can deliver reductions in CO2 by up to 25 percent and NOx emissions by up to 95 percent.
Siemens
Energy signed an agreement with Maersk Drilling to upgrade two ultra-harsh
environment CJ70 jack-up drilling rigs in the North Sea with hybrid power
plants using lithium-ion energy storage. The rigs – the Maersk Intrepid and Maersk
Integrator – were retrofitted with BlueVault™ batteries from Siemens Energy.
They are the first jack-ups to employ a combination of hybrid, low-emission
solutions on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
- Siemens Energy to supply 21 high-efficiency
compressor trains for expanding Marjan oil and gas field in the Kingdom of
Saudi Arabia (KSA).
- The project reinforces commitment to society
and Saudi Aramco’s In-Kingdom Total Value Add (IKTVA) program.
Siemens Energy was selected to
supply new electric motor driven compressors for Saudi Aramco’s Tanajib Plant facilities. The company received the
order from the Spanish engineering and construction company, Técnicas
Reunidas, who was awarded the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC)
contract for the Marjan Onshore Packages 9 and 11 project last year.
- Commissioning of one feed and one sales gas train and one
refrigeration compression train complete for the Pipestone Processing Facility.
- Siemens Energy will provide tailored maintenance services to Keyera
Partnership for the gas turbine installation.
Siemens Energy recently completed the commissioning of one feed and
sales gas train and one refrigeration compression train for the Pipestone
Processing Facility in Grand Prairie, Alberta, Canada. The Pipestone Processing
Facility is owned by Keyera Partnership, a subsidiary of Keyera Corp.
- BlueDrive DC Grid technology will help Odfjell Drilling minimize rig
emissions, enabling customers to meet their long-term emission reduction
targets
- BlueDrive DC Grid technology is the first of its kind to be installed on an offshore drilling rig
- BlueDrive DC Grid technology is a transformative approach to energy distribution for drilling
Odfjell
Drilling will retrofit its newest deepwater, semi-submersible drilling rigs in
the North Sea’s Norwegian sector with the Siemens Energy BlueDrive DC-Grid
system. The upgrades will be carried out on Deepsea Atlantic and Deepsea
Nordkapp, with the opportunity to include Deepsea Stavanger, Deepsea
Aberdeen, and Deepsea Yantai at a later stage.
- Siemens Energy and Mubadala join strategic
partnership to accelerate green hydrogen capabilities in Abu Dhabi
- Siemens Energy to collaborate with
Masdar and partners on developing clean hydrogen fuels
Siemens Energy is advancing the
development of green hydrogen ecosystems in the UAE. Around the Abu Dhabi
Sustainability Week, two Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) were signed with
Mubadala Investment Company as well as with Masdar and other partners to
jointly drive UAE’s green hydrogen sector and the production of synthetic
fuels.
- Projects target a total investment of approximately EUR 120 million over five years in developments leading to a fully integrated offshore wind-to-hydrogen solution
- Projects are first major step to develop an industrial-scale system capable of harvesting green hydrogen from offshore wind
- Developments will enable decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors such as transport and heavy industry
- Implementation within the framework of the ideas competition "Hydrogen Republic of Germany" of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research
To reach the
Paris Agreement goals, the world will need vast amounts of green hydrogen and
wind will provide a large portion of the power needed for its production.
Siemens Gamesa and Siemens Energy announced today that they are joining forces combining
their ongoing wind to hydrogen developments to address one of the major challenges of our decade —
decarbonizing the economy to solve the climate crisis. The companies are contributing with their
developments to an innovative solution that fully integrates an electrolyzer
into an offshore wind turbine as a single synchronized system to directly
produce green hydrogen. The companies intend to provide a full-scale offshore
demonstration of the solution by 2025/2026. The German Federal Ministry of
Education and Research announced today that the developments can be implemented
as part of the ideas competition "Hydrogen Republic of Germany".
