Name of the Project
Riau gas-fired combined-cycle gas turbine power project.
Location
Riau, Sumatra, Indonesia.
Client
PT Medco Ratch Power Riau, comprising PT Medco Power Indonesia and Ratchaburi Electricity Generating Holding Company.
Project Description
The project will be a baseload power plant with a capacity of 1 445 GWh/y and will include a gas pipeline, water intake and a discharge line, cooling towers for a closed cooling system, a switchyard, an access road and a transmission line. The main plant will comprise two 81 MW gas turbines, two heat recovery steam genera-tors (HRSGs) and one 126 MW steam turbine and generator, in a combined-cycle configuration.
The gas turbine and HRSG will have dry, low nitrogen oxide combustors. Two 45-m-high stacks are proposed. Natural gas for the power plant will be supplied by PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) through a dedicated 12 high-pressure buried pipeline to the regulating and metering station to be established on the project site.
The power generated by the project will be transferred to PLN’s existing150 kV Tenayan–Pasir Putih transmission live through a new 750-m-long 150 kV transmission line that will be connected to the existing transmission line. Indonesia State-owned power utility will be the offtaker for the electricity generated by the project.
