Build, own and operate a power plant equipped with mobile TM2500 aeroderivative gas turbines.
GE Gas Power has signed an agreement to build, own and operate the power plant. GE will supply four TM2500 units for the project. These four units will be made available to provide up to 80MW of power. GE is expected to commission the plant in as little as five months’ time. The facility will then be operated for a minimum of three years, until the area is connected to the main 400kV grid. Often described as GE’s ‘Power Plant on Wheels’, the TM2500 aeroderivative gas turbine is an easy to install, fast power, complete turnkey energy solution that can be redeployed from one location to another.
The power production is expected to start in November 2021. Towards this cause, Marafiq and the Rural Areas Electricity Company (Tanweer), a member of Nama Group, have signed a power purchase agreement (PPA). This agreement will meet the requirements ‘economic procurement’ of the sector’s law and will create high value to meet the increasing demand in the zone. In addition, the plant will contribute to reducing emissions.
ACES Muscat has recently completed the geotechnical investigation and environmental assessment for Marafiq Power Plant project in Duqm. The proposed power plant will replace the existing Duqum Main Power station and the new overhead lines being constructed will reach Duqm within the upcoming 5 years. The scope of work includes drilling and sampling of 36 boreholes to a maximum depth of 25m, a wide set of geotechnical field testing (trial pits, In situ CBR, and plate load tests). In addition to environmental testing, routine lab testing, and geophysical surveys (Electrical resistivity test and seismic downhole tests).
