GAS TURBINE
GE Power Systems
Oil & Gas
GE Power Systems is recognized as a global leader
in the power generation industry with a proven
track record of developing new technology,
products and services. The GE5 benefits from the
synergy between GE’s Aircraft Engine designs and
GE Oil & Gas Nuovo Pignone Gas Turbine
designs leading a new evolution in the extended
GE line of small gas turbines.
Turbine
The turbine itself is a compact, high efficiency design with
two reaction stages. The advanced design methodology
utilized by GE Oil & Gas resulted in a high performance
machine with significantly fewer parts. In addition state-of-
the-art cooling techniques for the first stage of the turbine
allowed the use of conventional materials for nozzles and
buckets.

The gas turbine package itself has been designed with an emphasis on
standardization, optimization of factory assembly, and the elimination of
costly field assembly methodologies. The result is that the standard package
satisfies the needs of the typical user and their desires thereby resulting in
lower cost installation and maintenance costs.

the engine, starting system, load gear, auxiliaries and acoustic enclosure.
The off-base equipment is limited to the lube oil coolers and the electric
generator.
The entire package is compact with a footprint of only 5810 mm (L) x

2500 mm (W) provides the user with the flexibility to locate the system
indoors or near pre-existing facilities. The inlet filtration module is
designed for mounting above the gas turbine enclosure to further
optimize footprint. The enclosure has lateral panelswide double-jointed
doors allowing for ease of access to all turbine components and

Combustor
Maintenance Philosophy
In order to achieve maximum efficiency while
maintaining highest reliability standards, the GE5 uses a
combustor design similar to proven aircraft engine type to A fundamental philosophy objective of the new GE5
achieve the maximum efficiency while maintaining the gas turbine is simplicity… of design, layout and
highest reliability standards. maintenance processes.
This allows the GE5 to attain market leadership in cost
The standard unit is configured with a DLE combustion and availability through innovative programs for
