GENERAL

As the scope of works of the Jebel Ali Power and Desalination Station L Phase I has been divided
into four packages, the interfaces between these packages have to be clearly defined.
The successful Contractor for each Package shall co-ordinate his work in every phase of his
activity like design, engineering, workshop testing, construction, erection, site testing and
commissioning directly with the respective Contractor for all other Packages.
During the design period, the concerned Contractor for any Package shall contact directly
Contractor(s) for other Packages in all matters concerning required data for his detailed technical
design to get the necessary information. The other Package Contractor(s) is obliged to provide
timely all necessary information as may be required by other Package Contractor(s). Copy of the
correspondence shall be submitted to the Employer/Engineer.
The concerned Package Contractor may arrange for technical meetings with other Package
Contractor(s) for the same reason. The timing and agenda shall be submitted to the
Employer/Engineer in due time before the meeting for information and decision whether or not to
attend the meeting. In case of non-attendance a copy of the Minutes of Meetings shall also be
distributed to the Employer/Engineer.

MECHANICAL INTERFACES

4.1.1

General Guidelines

Generally, to prevent interference, it shall be avoided as much as possible that the (sub-)contractor
working on one of the 4 packages has to work in the area of any of the other 4 packages.
The bulk of mechanical interfaces are between packages P and D; and those interfaces shall
preferably be near the E220 coordinate (piperack) or S1700 or S2000 coordinate (centerline or
north end road).
Furthermore the number of interfaces shall be minimised, i.e. wherever possible there shall be
common interface points for a system and sub-distribution in a package shall be done be the (sub-)
contractor responsible for that package.
To determine which package contractor has the lead responsibility for a mechanical interface the
following order of priority shall be used:
P>D>S>L
The contractor who has the lead responsibility for the interface will be responsible for the
coordination and for the physical completion of the interface. This includes providing the necessary
material (such as bolts, gaskets, flanges, weld ...) and carry out the necessary work (such as
aligning pipes, welding, tightening bolts, ...).
The identified interfaces have been listed below. Further interfaces, if required for the
completeness of the plant / system, shall be provided by the Contractor with no extra costs.

ELECTRICAL INTERFACES

4.2.1

General Guidelines

Generally, to prevent interference, it shall be avoided as much as possible that the (sub-)
contractor working on one of the 4 Packages has to work in the area of any of the other 4
Packages.
The bulk of interfaces are between the 11 kV unit Auxiliary Supply of Package P and the 11 kV
sub-distribution boards of Package D.
Generally all 11 kV-Power cable connections and all related control, pilot wiring protection and
interlocking cables form 11 kV unit boards to 11 kV sub-distributions and direct to 11 kV station
service boards connected 11/0.4 kV transformers of other Packages will be part of Package P.
In the same way, the LV Power Cables and control cables from the central Emergency Distribution
board in Package P to the 0.4 kV boards of other Packages will be the part of Package P. To
minimise the total number of these cable connections between Package P and Package D the
subcontractor of Package D has to provide an emergency-sub-distribution board and only two
connecting cables will be provided.
Cable trays shall use the division of work as defined in clause 4.1.1, i.e. cable trays in an area shall
generally be provided by the contractor who is responsible for that area, regardless of which
contractor the cable belongs to.
To determine which package contractor has the lead responsibility for an electrical interface the
following order of priority shall be used:
S>L>P>D
The contractor who has the lead responsibility for the interface will be responsible for the
coordination and for the physical completion of the interface. This includes providing the necessary
material except the cable (such as cable shoes and clamps) and carry out the necessary work
except pulling the cable (such as attaching the cable shoes and connecting to the junction box).
Electrical works for road lighting including lighting poles within the Site will be divided by coordinate E 226. East of it is in the supply of Package P and west in Package D.

CIVIL INTERFACES

4.4.1

General Guidelines

As the scope of works of the Jebel Ali Power and Desalination Station L Phase I has been divided
into four packages, the civil works required by each packages will be divided accordingly.
For the buildings, structures, equipment foundations, piperack / busduct foundations, and pipe and
cable trenches required for mechanical/electrical plants and equipments, the interfaces for the civil
works are defined by the interfaces of the mechanical/electrical plants and equipments for which
the civil works are required. Reference is made to the relevant Clauses of mechanical/electrical
interfaces above.
Further interfaces for civil works not related directly to any of those plants, equipments, pipe and
cable racks/trenches, works such as roads, drainage and sewage etc., which need to be defined
area-wise i.e. to be shared by Packages, will be defined below in the Clause 4.4.2.
Works for all of the Station to be executed by a certain Package will be defined in the Part P2.28,
D2.9, S2.4, Clause-Scope of Works accordingly. Otherwise works of general nature mentioned in
the scope of works below are limited to the concerned packages only.
Contractor of the area in which other civil contractor has to work, shall be responsible for the coordination of civil works with regard to sequence of works, accesses etc. Reference is made in this
regard to Part G2-Conditions of Contract, Clause 6.28.
4.4.2

List of Civil Interfaces

4.4.2.1 General
Interfaces between Package P and others are defined below by physical co-ordinates cover civil
works of general nature. Some other works of general nature such as Employer/Engineers Site
office, first aid station for the whole construction site are included in the scope of works for
Package P and thus not specifically stated in the interfaces. In case of different civil contractors
are employed at Site for each Package, the co-ordination between them shall be undertaken by
the responsible contractor of the area.
In case of disputes about the scope of works of other civil contractor in his area, area contractor is
responsible for the completeness and functionality of all civil works in his area.

EQUIPMENT DESIGN REQUIREMENTS

3.1

BASIC DESIGN AND OPERATING DATA OF THE HRSG

Based on the required steam data a single pressure HRSG with supplementary firing is
anticipated. The HRSGs to be provided shall be of outdoor type ready in every respect to serve its
intended purpose and shall be constructed in large, factory-tested, shippable modules to reduce
installation time. The HRSG shall be of proven design, at least three references shall be provided.
The design, manufacturing and erection shall be in accordance with ASME, DIN, TRD or
equivalent. The boiler shall bear a stamp of an independent authority, e.g. ASME, TV, Lloyds,
etc., for design, manufacturing, erection and repairs (if any) and the respective certificates shall be
submitted to the Employer. The HRSG and its auxiliaries shall be designed for proper, safe and
efficient operation at all loads.
Furthermore the HRSG design shall include heating steam for feedwater tank deaerator. This can
be done with an extraction after the economiser or a completely separate once-through loop,
according to the Contractors practice, but to be approved by the Engineer.
The HRSG shall be designed for a lifetime of 250,000 operating hours, taking into consideration
the number of cold starts as given in Part G4.2 Plant Concept. It is as sumed that the steam
turbine shall work under fixed pressure mode. Maximum load gradients and load ramps described
in Part G4.2 shall also be taken into consideration.
The HRSG shall be designed to operate on the exhaust gas of the GT when fired with natural gas
(NG) as the main fuel and Diesel Oil (DO) as the back-up fuel. Fuel analyses are provided in Part
G4.2.2 Fuel. The heating surfaces of the HRSG shall be designed taking into account the
variation of the exhaust gas temperature profile at any load condition of the GT. When designing
the boiler, heed shall be taken to the fact, that each of the gas turbines can be operated with a
different kind of fuel at different loads even on cyclic operation as specified elsewhere in the
specification.
The steam qualities at the outlet of the HRSG shall fulfil the requirements of the VGB guidelines for
normal operation values when the boiler is operated under the conditions given for boiler water in
the same guidelines of the respective pressure ranges. The following values in the live steam
should not be exceeded:

Conductivity
Silica
Total iron
Total copper
Sodium & Potassium

0.2 S/cm
0.02 ppm
0.02 ppm
0.003 ppm
0.01 ppm

In order to minimise the outage time for inspection and maintenance, provisions shall be made to
allow ready access to the HRSG gas path, tubing and other pressure parts. Access doors with
integral seals shall be provided to prevent gas leakage to atmosphere.
The HRSG shall be equipped with the necessary safety valves including silencers.
In order not to exceed the maximum permissible steam temperature at any load and or transient
conditions, steam attemperators shall be provided.
The design of the HRSG shall ensure that steaming in the economisers is prevented over the
whole range of operation.

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

Page: 5

Start-up, operating and shut down procedure requirements:


Operation of the HRSG only in conjunction with the corresponding gas turbine. Island operation
with forced draught is not required.
Continuous operation (base and part load) at all possible ambient conditions, all gas turbine fuels
and all gas turbine load.
Start-up Procedure:

HRSG start-up in conjunction with GT-start up (normal start-up):


In this case gas turbine and HRSG are started up commonly without use of the bypass
stack for the gas turbine. That means the gas turbine exhaust gas at start-up is directly led
to the HRSG. Before activating the starting procedure, in combined cycle the BMS system
will give the consent to supplementary firing, burners start-up, only if the flue gas purging
system will have correctly fulfilled the purge of ducts and boiler. The purge will be carried
out by the the gas turbine; the procedure shall however be according to the relevant
NFPA code(s).

HRSG start-up at GT operation


The HRSG shall also be capable to start while the GT is in operation. This shall be
achieved by use of the bypass stack damper to control the flow through the HRSG and by
reducing the GT load such that the requirements for boiler purging according NFPA 8506
are fulfilled.

The permissible stresses caused by temperature change transients of drums, headers


etc. shall govern the power raising of the gas turbine and/or the gas turbine exhaust gas
flow through the HRSG.

Rapid start-up of the gas turbine shall not be met by the HRSG design. In this case the
gas turbine exhaust gas shall be led through the gas turbine bypass stack.

Shut down Procedure:

The HRSG shall be shut down in accordance with a normal gas turbine shut down

The HRSG shall be shut down on the exhaust gas side by switching the exhaust gas
diverter damper from boiler operation to gas turbine operation using the bypass-stack.

The Contractor is obliged to consider all components necessary to fulfil the specified
requirements. The HRSG shall be designed to cope with the operational cases (load
points) as specified.

feedwater inlet flow:

a retaining time of at least 2.5 minutes from normal operation level to trip level at normal
steam flow (GT + SF full load)

a safe shutdown of the HRSG without damage after initialising closing the bypass stack
damper (taking into account the closing time of the damper) or trip of the GT and SF at
low low drum level.

Transient operation shall not lead to such strong swelling or fluctuations of the drum level in such a
way that any protection action (holding time, gradient limitation, shutdown) is initiated.
The level difference between normal water level and low water alarm level shall be not less than
150mm.
The normal water level shall be indicated by engraved marks on the drum, repeated on a plate
located outside of the insulation, and on the level gauges.

inward on a hinge, attached to the inside of the drum.
The drum with connections shall be fully shop fabricated and fusion-welded throughout. Site
welding directly on the boiler drum is not permitted. Tube stubs, suitably prepared for welding, shall
be provided at the drums if tubes are to be welded at site. Al l nozzles shall be final welded to the
drum. The nozzles shall be long enough to ensure that the base weld is not affected by the
subsequent welding on site and that valves, mountings and fittings can be cut off and re-welded
without damaging the insulation lagging or the drum.
Steam water separators of the e.g. cyclone type shall be arranged in the boiler drum. In addition to
the cyclone separators, the drum shall be provided with all other required steam purifiers and
steam deflecting baffles. The design and arrangement of these internals shall be such that the
mechanical carry over of boiler water in the saturated steam entry to the primary superheater is
limited to <0.1%
The design of the drum internal fittings shall allow quick and easy removal and replacement of all
parts for inspection and maintenance purposes. Arrangement and fabrication of all internal
equipment shall be provided so as to permit removal and replacement through the manholes.
The attachment of internal fittings etc. to the drum shall be such as to prevent movement while the
unit is in service, but, except where specifically approved otherwise, they shall not be welded to
the internal surface of the drum. Bolts and nuts inside drum shall be fitted with cap nuts.
Thermocouples, to measure the differential metal temperature of the boiler drum(s) shall be
provided. The thermocouples shall cover six positions, i.e. three on the bottom and three on the top
of the drums.
In order not to cause any thermal stress on the drum even when feeding the drum with "cold"
feedwater, e.g. when the unit has been stopped, the feedwater inlet pipe to the boiler drum shall be

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

Page: 7

equipped with thermal sleeve in order to avoid direct contact of the water inflow pipe with the
drums' shell.
Internal fittings shall be provided for the extraction of the continuous blow-down and chemical
dosing over the whole length of the drum. One start-up as well as an emergency blow down shall
also be provided.

and frequent cleaning / soot blowing. The fin thickness shall not be less than 1.0 mm.
The materials used shall be in line with the adopted design standard however, the last stage of the
superheater shall not be inferior to P91. Material of the fins shall be of heat resistant material in
accordance with the temperature range of the HRSG.
Elbows spools in the temperature and flow velocity range that is known to cause flow accelerated
corrosion shall be made of corrosion/erosion resistant material.
The connection tube to header shall be of the full penetration weld type, at least for alloyed
material (i.e. T11, 13CrMo44 or higher) and the header material shall be of the same material as
the tube material.
Headers shall be fabricated from seamless steel pipes. In case of a horizontal type HRSG, all
lower headers shall have a drain of at least DN50. Special provisions shall be made for a
temporary flushing connection at both end of each header. The size of the connection shall be
such that it ensures sufficient velocities during chemical cleaning and it shall also suit for inspection
and for cleaning by hand.
All pressure parts (both water and steam section) shall be fully drainable and ventable, i.e. at every
low point there must be a drain and at every high point there must be a vent. Draining shall be
possible only by gravity, without the need to pressurise the HRSG.
Special attention shall be paid to pressure drop and flow velocity, so that a stable distribution and
faultless cooling of the HRSG's tubular system is obtained under all operating conditions.
Attention shall be paid to the vortex shedding frequency to avoid any resonance resulting in
excessive tube vibration or loud humming of the whole HRSG.
The modules must be supported by steel structure; they shall not rest on internal insulation. The
tubes must be able to expand freely, without any bending. The lateral movement of tubes shall be
restricted in order to prevent dislocation of the tube. Spacer strips which were are welded to tubes
or fins shall normally be of the same material as the tube or fin. However, the Contractor shall
check whether the higher temperature off the strip requires a more heat-resistant material,
Precautions shall be taken to avoid local over heating of the tube walls.
Cross-over piping may be external of the HRSG casing and shall be of the same material as the
tube bank header upstream.

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 8

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

Design shall ensure that no support, hanger, seal/baffle plate shall be around, rest, touch or slide
over bare tube surfaces. When there is a possibility of contact, rubbing or sliding the tubes shall be
protected by proper reinforcement sleeves/saddles.

3.2.3 Economiser

drumming or vibration and the design shall ensure an even distribution of water through the tubes.
Natural circulation design is preferred.
The downcomers shall be designed to achieve a uniform circulation ratio to the individual
evaporator tubes over the full load range.

3.2.5 Superheaters
Special attention shall be paid to pressure drop and flow velocity, so that a safe and stable
distribution and faultless cooling of the boiler's tubular system is obtained under all operating
conditions. The superheater stages shall be fully drainable.
The superheater tubes material shall not be inferior to 13CrMo44 (equivalent to T11) for steam
outlet temperatures up to 450oC and shall not be inferior to 10CrMo910 (equivalent to T22) at
steam outlet temperatures above 450oC up to 535oC.
In case the boiler design requires that the steam outlet temperature of the boiler exceeds 535oC,
the material used for the last superheater section shall not be inferior to X10CrMoVNb91
(equivalent to SA T91 respectively P91).
All header materials shall be of equal quality as the tube materials with which they are connected.
An approved number of thermocouples shall be supplied for measuring and recording metal
temperature during pre-commissioning trials and normal operation on a temperature recorder to be
provided under this Contract.
During commissioning the Contractor has to demonstrate that the metal temperatures are not
greater than the design metal temperature as stated in the Data Sheets.
Provision shall be made in all headers and inter-stage piping to accommodate test pressure
gauges and quick response thermocouples.

3.2.6 Desuperheaters
The desuperheaters shall be of the variable spray nozzle type, to ensure proper atomisation over
the whole range of operation. The last attemperator shall be installed upstream of the last

all branch lines.

3.3

SUPPLEMENTARY FIRING

3.3.1 General
The HRSGs shall be equipped with supplementary duct burners firing natural gas.
The most modern design of burners) shall be used to avoid pulsation and the most up-to-date rules
and regulations for safety and fire hazard shall be observed (e.g. NFPA, TRD) for the firing
equipment. The NO X emission level of the exhaust gases shall only be marginally influenced by the
supplementary firing. The NO X level over the load range of the supplementary firing shall be
guaranteed and stated in the relevant data sheets.
The duct burner must also comply with the environmental requirements stated in Part G4.
Measures to be taken to ensure that there will be no flame impingement under any operating
conditions.
The duct burner shall operate with a 10 to 1 turn down ratio and a stable flame over the entire
range of operation.
Each duct burner shall be provided with ignitors and two UV flame scanners. The flame detector
monitoring system shall incorporate a self-checking facility and shall be arranged so that at the
failure of the two detectors the relevant burner shall trip and initiate an alarm in the control room.
Flame loss shall be detected by the two detectors to trip the relevant burner. Scanner cooling air
shall be provided from redundant air blowers. Flame scanners shall be replaceable on line, isolated
with an airlock and valves. Ignitors shall also be replaceable during operation. Viewing ports shall
allow visual confirmation that all burner rows are firing.
The duct burner shall be capable of local emergency stop and remote operation. Remote operation
from the DCS shall consist of manual and automatic initiation and control over the whole load
range. The duct burners shall be ignited from the control room (operator initiated) and shall be
automatically controlled. Duct burner firing ratio control shall respond to input signals from the
DCS. Shutdown of one burner element shall not cause the other burner elements to shutdown.
The fuel supply to the burners shall be safeguarded by an automatic safety shut-off system. Each
automatic safety shut-off system shall be fitted with double block and vent as a minimum protection
against fuel leaks into the HRSG. Fuel gas flow control valves shall be provided dual redundant
(2 x 100%) for each HRSG unit. The same redundancy shall be provided for the pressure control
system of each fuel. Duty / standby selection facility shall be provided with automatic switchover to
the standby control valve upon failure of the duty valve in a smooth i.e. bumpless transfer. Each
control valve shall have upstream and downstream motorised isolating valves. If pressure control is
provided for fuel gas, it shall also be provided with dual redundant pressure control valve with duty
/ standby concept.
The vent shall terminate in a safe location and shall be protected against accidental isolation and
the ingress of rainwater.
In addition with other components, it shall be possible to prove whether all the shut-off valves in the
system are leak tight.
With the mode of supplementary firing proposed it shall be guaranteed that:

emission values of NO x , CO, SOx and particles are in the specified range

start-up is fast, safe and reliable

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 10

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

combustion is safe and stable at all gas turbine and HRSG loads and load fluctuations

there is no flame carryover into the HRSG during any operating condition.

operation of the burners is easy and safe

the flue gas mass flow and temperature distributions are uniform at the HRSG inlet.

3.3.2 Burners
All burners shall be capable of burning natural gas exclusively.
Good, reliable operation of the burners, without risk of soot formation, harmful flame impingement
or flame instability is essential. There shall be no excessive vibration of part or the whole of the
HRSG, or ducting. These requirements shall apply with the specified fuel, over the whole range of
automatic control.
There shall be no back flow of flue gas into the natural gas fuel system and resultant internal
corrosion to pipes and valves connected with duct burners especially when the burners are not in
operation.
The flames shall not be unstable or blow-off

due to flame scanner cooling air effect

in the case of minimum load on the burner and the maximum turbine exhaust gas flow that can
arrive at the burner

in the event that the highest possible fuel pressure occurs. This may happen if by accident the
control valve opens fully. If the flames would be blown off when the burner is subjected to
maximum fuel supply pressure, the control valve shall be provided with a maximum
mechanical stop to prevent blow off.

Burners and associated equipment shall be capable of withstanding the maximum turbine exhaust
gas temperatures and fuel pressure specified.
The burner elements shall be made form high quality material and shall be mounted on the
individual gas supply line.
Pneumatic quick closing combinations with manually operated shut off ball valves (with limit switch)
shall be installed in the common line to burner elements. In the event of a failure on two flame
scanners, the quick closing valves shall switch off this part of the supplementary firing system.
Supply of the UV cells with cooling air shall be assured from a cooling air system. This system has
to be in operation also when supplementary burners are shut down and the HRSG is only heated
with turbine exhaust gas.
Via the Burner Management System (BMS), the HRSG protection criteria and also the required
signals from and to the GT turbine shall be interlocked. In the BMS the duct burners shall be
interlocked.
The burners shall be grouped for control. The NG system shall be such that the last section of
pipe, which shall have the chance of exhaust gas contact, shall be of non corrosive steel.
Adequate drain facility shall be provided in NG pipes to burners.

3.3.3 Ignition System


Each burner shall be provided with its own ignition unit, which shall include a fixed transformer and
spark igniter, an ignition / pilot burner and a flame safeguard, all suitable for intermittent operation

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

Page: 11

in pressurised combustion chambers. The ignition / pilot burner shall be designed to have only one
fixed position in the burner. These units shall be fed from the fuel gas main system.
The flames of ignition burners shall be stable on any specified fuel, in the case of the maximum
turbine exhaust gas flow arriving at the main burners.
Trial for ignition time
Ignition of supplementary firing burners shall be fully automatic and safeguarded by sequence
control and flame detection devices. Therefore supplementary fired HRSGs shall be designed to
comply with one of the following criteria for trial ignition.
These two criteria are given in order to cover the two basic types of supplementary fired HRSGs to
which this specification is applicable.
The Dilution Criterion
The dilution Criterion should be applied to HRSGs which are designed for flue gas flow in one
direction only between inlet and outlet and/or contain no dead pockets or areas of possible turbine
exhaust gas recirculation in which ultimately explosive mixtures of fuel and turbine exhaust gas
may accumulate. In addition these HRSGs shall be fired with matrix or other type of multiple
burners which are designed to distribute the heat release evenly across the inlet area of the
combustion chamber and thereby ensuring a good dilution of the fuel in the turbine exhaust gas
stream at start-up. In general, the total fuel gas flow at start-up shall be limited to the extent that
the average fuel/turbine exhaust gas mixture remains well below the lower explosion limit. A
delayed ignition, therefore, will not cause any harmful pressure increase and the ignition time will
not be critical.
Matrix burners or other types of burners may be started individually or simultaneously provided the
following conditions apply:

the turbine exhaust gas flow remains at more than 50% of the maximum load value

the fuel gas flow is limited such that the average fuel concentration in the combustion
chamber remains less than 10% of the average stoichiometric fuel/turbine exhaust gas ratio

the time for verification of main burner ignition shall be in accordance with German Technical
Rules for Steam Boilers TRD 412.

Energy Criterion
The energy criterion shall be applied to HRSGs which are designed for flue gas flow in more than
one direction between inlet and outlet and for this reason contain dead pockets or areas of
possible turbine exhaust gas recirculation in which ultimately explosive mixtures of fuel and turbine
exhaust gas may accumulate.
The trial for ignition time t (s) shall be estimated with the formula:

t=

0.42 V P
G LHV

Where:
V = combustion chamber volume in m 3
G = fuel gas flow rate to the burner under start -up conditions in kg/s
P = Flue gas side design pressure in barG

P2_02HRSGs_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 12

Part P2.2 HRSGs and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

LHV = Lower heating value of the fuel gas in MJ/kg

GENERAL

Station L shall be operated with dual fuel:

Natural Gas (NG) as primary and Diesel Oil (DO) as back-up fuel for GT operation,

NG as primary and Diesel Oil (DO) as back-up fuel for Auxiliary Boiler operation and

NG for supplementary firing for Waste Heat Recovery Boilers (HRSG).

The Natural Gas System (NGS) serves to receive the natural gas from the supplier and transfer it
to the consumers on site.
Within NGS the natural gas shall be filtered, condensate shall be removed and the pressure shall
be controlled. All imaginable fuel gas mass flows shall be covered keeping at the same time the
pressure fluctuations downstream of the control valve / boosting compressor within the permissible
limits of the gas turbine manufacturer.
The NGS shall be able to supply sufficient quantity of natural gas under all plant conditions and
under consideration of the lowest lower heating value of the natural gas to the customers.
Gas pressure at terminal point will be minimum 21 bar(a), maximum 50 bar(a) normal supply
pressure 23 25 bar(a). Under normal operation conditions, the natural gas will be received at a
temperature of about 18 C to 32 oC. However, when the complete power plant is out of service the
gas temperature may fall below the lowest ambient temperature of 2.8C, i.e. this lowest
temperature shall also be considered in the design. The NGS shall be designed corresponding to
the natural gas consumption of the offered GTs under all possible operating conditions,
considering the supplementary firing for the HRSGs and/or the consumption of the Auxiliary Boilers
respectively.
Gas Heaters shall be provided in order to prevent the gas temperature from dropping below the
dew point of the gas and to keep the gas temperature between the limits given by the gas turbine
manufacturer.
The design of the gas fuel supply system shall enable the gas turbines to start, generate up to full
load and shut-down. In addition, it shall be possible to change automatically and manually from gas
to diesel oil whilst on load on sensing a falling gas pressure or manually from diesel oil to gas
whilst on load. Pipe dimensions downstream the reducing station shall consider adequate storage
capacity for a trouble free change over from gas to diesel oil at all load ranges up to full load in the
event of sudden closing of either Emergency Shutdown valve (ESD) and or Slam Shut Off valves
without load reduction.
Each GT shall be provided with a complete separate Pressure Reducing/Boosting Train, consisting
of emergency shut-down valves, filters/separators, heaters, gas pressure reducing stations,
metering and gas compressors.
It must be ensured that each of these Pressure Reducing/Boosting Trains can be taken out of
service for repair and/or maintenance and that in this case all three (3) GTs with the HRSGs - or
the two (2) Auxiliary Boilers respectively - can be supplied with NG by the remaining two (2)
Pressure Reducing/Boosting Trains. For this purpose all the three (3). Pressure Reducing/Boosting
Trains shall be connected with each other via cross connection pipes, manual isolating valves,
non-return valves, etc.
The cross connections shall not be used to control the normal operation of the GTs / HRSGs.
Each GT / HRSG shall be operated unit-wise.
The design flow rate of each Pressure Reducing/Boosting Train shall be at least 1.5 times 100 %
of the maximum demand. When designing the system the Contractor shall ensure that a single

Pressure Control mode under all conditions of steam load changes including desalination units trip.
The description below contains the regulation tasks and a framework proposal for the solution of
these tasks.
The Contractor is required to supply the range of equipment, which makes possible the safe
fulfilment of the tasks as outlined, and the maintenance of the necessary regulation accuracy and
the fully automatic operation of the turbine.
In addition, the regulation circuits must guarantee stable turboset operation at all load points.
All features of the governing system shall be demonstrated during commissioning.
An electro-hydraulic turbine governor system is preferably to be employed with the hydraulic part
capable by itself of providing safe operation of the turbine. Using the electro-hydraulic regulation,
precise frequency-power characteristic should be possible with a high response sensitivity and fine
adjustability of the frequency-power characteristic even during operation. Furthermore, control of
load shedding is to be ensured while avoiding running up on the static characteristic. In addition,
the governor equipment must meet the following requirements:

Speed increase, on the sudden shedding of load from maximum continuous power to no load
running, is not to exceed 8% even transiently, referred to the nominal speed, and thus the
possibility of over-speed trip operation during load shedding is excluded.

It must be possible to set the proportional band within the limits 2 - 8.0 %.

It is also required that the governor must operate over the full regulation range without hunting.

Between 100 rpm and the nominal speed, it must be possible to set the speed to any desired
value and the speed variations, particularly during starting, must not be greater than 1%.

In isolated operation, the speed governor system must be capable of maintaining the nominal
frequency of 50 Hz with deviations of max. +0.5 Hz. The response sensitivity, the setting
range of the proportional band of the speed regulator and the arrangement of the speed
regulation of the turboset must correspond to this requirement.

P2_06steam_turbine_Working_Doc.doc

Part P2.6 Steam Turbine Units and Auxiliaries Working Doc.

Page: 13

As regards the extraction pressure control, the pressure in the bleed steam piping is to be kept
constant independent of the electrical power produced i.e. above the minimum load required.
The Contractor shall inform about the minimum load required in order to be able to fulfil the
steam extraction requirements.

The exhaust pressure control system must be able to maintain the required value set with
maximum deviations of +2 %.

It must be possible at any time to adjust remotely the set point for exhaust steam pressure
from the control room. The supply pressure limitation must ensure that no more steam is taken
from the live steam header that can be produced by the available boilers. The possibility of
running with lower live steam pressures at part load must be provided. The supply pressure
limitation must also for this reason be capable of being remotely adjusted from the control
room.

Duplicate overspeed protections, one electronic and one mechanical shall be provided to
operate and cut off live steam, by closing the turbine inlet valves, when the turbine speed rises
to a predetermined level which shall not exceed the nominal speed by more than 10 % / 12 %.
The devices are to be readily accessible for adjustment purpose and on load testing of each
overspeed protection system shall be possible when the unit is operating at rated speed and at
any load without tripping the unit.

The generator voltage regulation has the task of maintaining the voltage supplied by the
generator at the required value by adjustment of the exciter. It must ensure that even with
rapid changes in load or possibly load shedding the voltage does not vary beyond the
permitted tolerance.

The generator regulation must be designed to ensure successful parallel operation with
differing load points for the individual units within the framework of the voltage and frequency
tolerances.

interlock logic to be implemented in the Sub Group Control (SGC).
In case the manufacturer provides a low speed turning gear, the oil pumps shall be started and
remain in operation during the whole turning period.
In addition, provision shall be made for the manual (hand) operation of the BPST rotor.
The turning speed is to be so chosen that the formation of a good lubricating film is ensured.
A higher turning speed is preferred because of the better temperature balance between the upper
and lower casing parts due to the fan effect. In any event, two oil pumps are to be supplied; their
employment during starting of the turning device avoids mixed frictional effects in the bearings.
In the event of a turbine trip or shutdown with a loss of AC power supplies for indefinite period, the
turbine shall run down without damage. The Contractor shall detail any particular procedures to be
observed on subsequent restarting with the turbine in hot, warm or cold condition.

conditions, synchronising the generator to the grid and loading the turbine to any pre-set load shall
be fully automatic. Provision shall be made for the operator in the main control room to take
control for manual operation of the turbine start-up, synchronisation and loading.
The shut-down of the turbine from full load to standstill condition shall be fully automatic. Start/stop
of any auxiliary system such as the lube oil system, turning gear, drain system, etc. during the
start-up/shut-down of the turbine shall be fully automatic. The start-up sequence shall include
automatic testing programme for the equipment such as the emergency lube oil pump.
The start-up/shut-down sequences of the turbine and its auxiliary systems shall be configured in a
hierarchy system of Functional Group Control (FGC), Sub-Group Control (SGC) and Sub-Loop
Control (SLC) in a co-ordinated manner.
The start-up/shutdown sequences of the steam turbine shall be initiated by the operator from the

programme and loading programme in order to ensure that the permissible turbine stress levels
are never exceeded. In case the allowable safe thermal stress margin is exceeded during runup/loading the TSE shall automatically halt the speed/load in position until the thermal stress has
come down within the allowable margin, which shall then release the halt of the speed/load, and
the run-up/loading programme shall then re-start automatically. If the stress margin is exceeded
during the run-up programme at the critical speed, the TSE shall then reduce the speed to a safe
value below the critical speed and halt on it until the stress becomes normal and the run-up
programme shall then re-start automatically. The safe value below the critical speed shall be well
defined as it will not be allowed to keep reducing the speed down through the whole range.
On-load testing facility shall be provided for the following equipment/systems:

Mechanical Over Speed Bolt

in two (2) auxiliary boilers or in combination

and delivered

to two (2) back pressure steam turbines (BPSTs)

to five (5) or more MSF units.

The plant comprises generally the following three (3) steam systems

High Pressure Steam System (HP Steam)

Generated in the HRSGs and/or Auxiliary Boilers.

Used for the BPSTs.

Used for the HP/IP steam pressure reducing and desuperheating stations.

Used for the HP/LP steam pressure reducing and desuperheating stations.

Intermediate Pressure Steam System (IP Steam)

Supplied from steam extraction of the BPSTs as first priority.

Supplied from the HRSGs / Auxiliary Boilers through the HP/IP steam pressure reducing
and desuperheating station as second priority.

Supplied from the HRSGs / Auxiliary Boilers through HP/LP steam pressure reducing and
desuperheating stations as second priority.

Used for the MSF brine heaters.

Each steam system shall be designed as header type configuration.


The HP steam parameters may be adjusted according to the required output of the steam turbines.
This means that the main steam pressure can be selected between approximately 35 bar up to
100 bar, steam temperature accordingly in the range of 410 C and 560 C.
The auxiliary boilers shall be designed with the same steam parameters as the HP steam from the
HRSGs.
Drain systems shall be provided in the different steam systems and shall be connected to a clean
drain flash vessel. Proper warm up systems shall be provided to avoid deleterious thermal stress

have redundant control modules in the DCS process control stations with duty/stand-by concept
and bumpless transfer upon failure in the duty control module.
Each of the HP, IP and LP steam headers shall have a Master Pressure Controller (MPC), which

the HP steam header.

To generate load set point for the GTG load controller in case all the SFBs are not in
service and the electrical load is not fixed in order to maintain constant pressure in the HP
steam header.

To generate position set point for the diverter damper controller in case all the SF burners
are out of service and the electrical load is fixed whereas the steam demand has reduced
causing an increase in the pressure of the HP steam header.

To generate a high pressure set point for the HP vent valve as a protection measure.

To generate a derivative ramp function for SFBs load controllers in case of GTG/HRSG
unit trip and/or SFBs trip in order to quickly recover the pressure in the HP steam header.

Co-ordination and interlock logic.

IP MPC:

To generate pressure set point for the Sub Group Control (SGC) of the BPSTs extraction
control valves.

To generate pressure set point for the HP/IP steam pressure reducing and
desuperheating station.

Co-ordination and interlock logic.

P2_07steam_systems_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 12

Part P2.7 Steam Systems Working Doc.

LP MPC:

pressure in the LP steam header.

To generate a set point for the HP/LP steam pressure reducing and desuperheating
stations.

To generate an anticipatory signal from the rate of change in the total LP steam demand
which shall be added as a forward signal to the SF Burners load controller in order to
ensure that HP steam pressure is always under control during normal and abnormal
steam demand changes.

To generate the correct opening position of the HP/LP steam pressure reducing and
desuperheating stations and to release it for quick opening when the relevant BPST is
tripped. This generated opening position shall compensate for the same amount of steam
lost due to the BPST trip in accordance with the linear characteristic curve of steam flow

OPERATION MODES

3.4.1 Emergency supply


(Reference is made to drawing 11 kV / 380 V Station Service Supply, Typical Single Line
Diagram, drawing number CNE / 015 / 2002 W 00 E D 00101)
To avoid overloading of the diesel generators, only those consumers will be supplied by the
emergency diesel generators that are needed for safe shut down of the plant.
Should the Grid voltage fail, the emergency diesel generators will maintain all essential services as
battery chargers, lighting system, turbines turning gears of and others.
All GT, BPST, HRSG, Common Service and other 380 V Boards will be divided by a normally
closed sectional breaker in two sections. The essential loads (necessary to be supplied in case
of grid voltage fails) will be connected to the essential section.

P2_10Blackstart_and_Emergency_Working_Doc.doc

Part P2.10 Black Start / Emergency Power Supply Working Doc.

Page: 9

The essential sections are connected via coupling breakers and cables to the related 380 V
emergency Board.
If the selector switch is in the "Automatic Start," position, the emergency diesel generator shall
start-up automatically after a time delay when the normal busbar voltages of any essential service
busbars fails.
After the diesel generator has been brought successfully into operation the generator circuit
breaker will close and the 380 V Emergency board will be energised.
After this
a.

The sectional breaker in each 380 V Board (GT, BPST, HRSG, Common Services and others)
will open
b. The coupling breaker between the emergency board and the essential section of the various,
above mentioned 380 V boards will close automatically. The essential loads will then be
supplied by the diesel generator now.
When the grid voltage will be restored, the normal supply via the 11 kV /0,4 kV transformers shall
be synchronised via the sectional breakers that connect the essential section with the normal
supplied section of the related 380 V Boards before supply from the diesel generator is cut off.
That is, the coupling breaker between the emergency board and the essential section of the
several 380 V boards will open.
Upon resumption of the normal power supply to all 380 V Boards of the plant, the diesel generator
shall automatically be shut off.

3.4.2 Test Run


It shall also be possible to synchronise the diesel generator to the normal supply (without
disturbances to the plant's normal operation), e.g. for testing purposes.
For these purposes, the cable coupling between the 380 V Station Service Board will be closed
and energise the 380 V Emergency Board. The synchronising points shall be the Generator circuit
breaker. The circuit breakers at both sides of this cable coupling and the cables itself shall be
designed to transmit the nominal power of the diesel generator.
It shall also be possible to test the synchronisation sequence from the local control panel through
"Test" buttons. It shall be possible to simulate an absence of voltage on the busbars, start up the
diesel generator and activate the switching sequence for the circuit breakers. It shall also be
possible to simulate the return of voltage on the busbars and activate the reverse operation of
shutting down the diesel generator and switching sequence of the circuit breakers.
The start-up, selection of synchronisation point, initiating of automatic synchronisation and
shutdown of the whole diesel generator set, including all necessary auxiliaries shall be either from
the local control panels and/or from the Central Control Room through the DCS.
A Test Run facility shall be also provided for the Black Start Diesel Generators.
For the electrical control system refer also to Part P2.26.11 of this specification.

SPARE PARTS STORE


GENERAL

The purpose of this store is to accept packed and unpacked spare parts and consumables.
Unpacked parts are understood to be airtight sealed, avoiding corrosion under prevailing weather
conditions.
The following specified equipment is related and limited to the shelving areas in the Spare Parts
Store only. The Contractor shall provide a complete lay out and all static calculations. The systems
to be provided shall be of the build-up type using slotted supports, open steel planks, parts with
perforated sections etc of pre-galvanised cold-milled mild steel with standard galvanised finishing
except where otherwise stated. BS-standard 4358 or equivalent standard shall be applied. All
products shall comply with SEMA Storage and Materials Manufacturers Association, UK; or the
Rack Manufacturer's Association, USA; or German RAL-RG 613/614, Quality Requirements;
having the Agreement Certificate and the GS-Certificate. A roster-type system shall be used with
bolting only. All rack systems shall have safety railing/support systems for accepting, holding and
fixing ladders and minimum height 3m.
All the load capacity of the racks and machinery shall be marked by printing/engraving.

3.2

RIGHT SIDE SHELVING AREA (NEXT GOODS LIFT), GROUND FLOOR

This area shall be used for storing heavy parts and long parts like pipes. The installation shall
consist of all steel type pallet racking and "long pieces" racking.
The pallet racking shall be designed for accepting standard UIC 435-2 pallets, dimensions
800x1200mm, loading capacity 2000 kg/m. Always four (4) pallets shall be placed vertically above
each other. Accordingly one pallet is placed at the ground floor with sufficient gap between the
floor and pallet for floor working and cleaning and the other three on three levels of racks, distance
between each rack one (1) meter. Wire mash shall be arranges towards the wall and the sides of
the panel shall be covered. Column guards shall be provided.
Horizontally the above-described pallets shall be arranged in rows. This arrangement of pallets
shall be placed either on walls or against each other forming double lines facing with the rear sides
to each other.
Each pallet shall be placed into the rack by forklift so that a depth of approx. 1.25 meters and a
width of approx. 0.9 meters are used up. Accordingly the racks shall be equipped with suitable
pallet support boxes and inside column protective guards.
Between double-line rakings and in front of wall-located racks a travelling space for the forklift of
2.5 meters shall be arranged. In front of double rows a travelling space of 3 meters shall be
considered.
All individual racking systems standing at walls or in double lining shall have every one (1) or every
two (2) meters, one vertical support with diagonal bracing, the number depending on the
acceptable ground floor loading. At each end and after each six (6) horizontally located pallets one
support shall be extended to a height of four (4) meters. This is also true for all vertical supports at
the end of each rack. Furthermore each rack shall have in longitudinal and horizontal direction a
sufficient stiffness, to accept horizontal forces equal to 0.01 g acceleration of the completely loaded
rack in all directions, thereby allowing between rack and adjacent wall still a clearance of 50 mm.
Racks located at walls shall be located at a distance of 0.1 m form the walls and shall have a rear
wall system consisting of a 0.4 m high strong support which limits the pallet to be placed on the
relevant place. Above this support a heavy-duty wire mesh shall be arranged to close the pallet
area toward the wall. This is true for the ground level, including all levels except for the most upper

P2_22Workshop_Store_Working_Doc.doc

Except as otherwise stated all racking shall be of galvanised steel structures complete with all
standard equipment and mounted and assembled as to final layout plan. All horizontal beams shall
be sufficiently stiff with box type cross sections, minimum size 50.8x115 mm.
The complete rack system shall be of the bolted type arrangement, whereby welding is not
permitted, with possibility to select at time of installation or at a later date a different height for the
first and second floor racking, but the uppermost one shall be considered due to its elevation of 3
meters as firm, because the relevant fork-lifts are specified accordingly.
The racking for long pieces shall have six (6) levels, being double-sided, complete with horizontal
and vertical diagonal bracing, etc. The lowest level supports shall be used as footing. All other
outriggers shall have an individual bearing capacity of min. 450 kg weight. The height of the upper
most outrigger shall be not less than 2.2 meters. Supports shall be placed at a distance of 1.5

GENERAL

This specification covers all fire fighting installations, supplement by a fire and gas detection and
alarm system, complete in every respect and suitable for satisfactory operation to offer protection
for all installations of this L Station Phase I where needed.

SCOPE OF WORKS

The scope of supply comprises design, manufacturing, testing, delivery, erection and
commissioning as well as all required documentation for the equipment as specified and
additionally such equipment as is deemed necessary for safe and reliable operation of the different
systems.
Fire fighting water shall be taken from the potable water reservoir, in which a minimum of 1,500m
water shall be available at any time for fire fighting purposes only to cover the demand of water
required for fighting the maximum risk for a duration of hundred and twenty (120) minutes. After
this period and in emergency cases, seawater shall be taken from the sea water intake structure .
The fire fighting pumps shall be sized to cover the water demand for fighting the maximum risk of
the power plant, determined by foaming the tank inside of one (1) fuel oil storage tank on fire, plus
parallel operation of the tank shell cooling systems for the tank on fire (roof and tank shell) and the
adjacent tanks (half tank shells), plus parallel operation of yard hydrants, as required by the
relevant NFPA codes and standards.
One (1) electric motor driven fire fighting pump and one (1) diesel engine driven standby fire
fighting pump, each pump with a capacity of approx. 600 m/h at approx. 10 bar shall take suction
from all compartments of the potable water reservoir and supply fire fighting water into a fire
service main. This fire service main shall be laid in underground, made of polyethylene PE 100 and
designed as a ring system to supply fire fighting water to outdoor hydrants, indoor hose stations,
sprinkler systems, water spray fixed systems, foam systems and tank shell cooling systems.
For emergency cases and as backup system one (1) electric motor driven seawater fire fighting
pump and one (1) diesel engine driven standby seawater fire fighting pump, each pump with a
capacity of approx. 600 m/h at approx. 10 bar shall take suction from the sea water intake
structure. Package P contractor shall supply all equipment related to fire fighting pumps and input
data for the civil works to the Contractor of Package D. Pumps could be installed at one of the
pump bays of Package D, e.g. Closed Cooling Water and Chlorination System Pumps (No
additional stop logs should be required).
Under normal stand-by conditions, the fire service main, the hydrants, the hose stations and the
fire fighting systems shall be pressurised by a water/air pressure vessel, charged by two (2) air
compressors.
Two (2) x 100% electric jockey pumps shall be provided with a duty standby selection facility in
order to make up leakages and cover the demand for one (1) indoor hydrant without the need to
start the fire fighting pumps for such a small consumption.
All fire fighting and detection equipment are subject to approval by the Civil Defence Authority.
All water based extinguishing systems shall be connected for drainage to the plant drainage
system.
The systems shall be complete and functional in every respect, mentioned or not in this
specification.
The scope of equipment shall mainly consist but shall not be limited to the following:

The Contractor shall install all HVAC systems as required. Performance shall be in strict
accordance to the latest standards recommended by American Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. (ASHRAE) and to the best engineering knowledge.
Contractor shall be aware of the figures and assumptions made by the Employer/Engineer to
estimate the cooling loads given. However, accurate quantities of heat dissipated from the
various equipment installed in the buildings as well as the overall coefficient values of heat
transfer U for walls, roofs and glass shall be calculated and the resulting cooling loads
required to satisfy the conditions stipulated in this Part shall be adopted.
Design, calculation, construction drawings, shop drawings, equipment selections and data of all
HVAC-systems shall be submitted to the Employer/Engineer for his review and approval, before
the Contractor may begin with any fabrication, construction or erection. It is clearly understood
that any material or equipment installed without the approval of the Employer/Engineer shall be
removed and replaced by an approved equipment free of charge. The selected supplier of air
conditioning equipment shall be well represented in the Gulf area so that services and spares
can easily be provided. In case of air-conditioned building with an exterior air system, cooling
coils shall be designed in function of the indoor and outdoor conditions.
The following design criteria shall be considered for design of the HVAC-systems:

For conditioned area the minimum air rate shall be based on 60 m3/h per person, or 10% of
total supply-air volume, or total exhaust air plus pressurisation requirements, whichever is
greater. For ventilated areas, air rate shall be considered as minimum 10 air changes/hour.

The HVAC system shall be designed for continuous operation under all prevailing climatic
and ambient conditions The cooling capacity of the HVAC system shall be at least 10%
higher than the cooling requirement for the relevant rooms and buildings.

All rooms shall be kept under a slight positive pressure to avoid infiltration of outside air to
the building.

Part P2.24 - Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Working Doc.

Page: 5

Re-heaters shall be provided where necessary.

All staircases shall be designed as smoke-proof towers in order to guarantee a safe regress.
Therefore, a slight positive pressure shall be provided by means of forced-draught, supplyair units on low level and exhaust-outlet dampers and louvres on high level.

The smoke control system by HVAC-systems shall not only be initiated by fire-alarm panel,
but also by local override switches on each floor.

Each smoke-control system shall be designed for 10 changes of outside air per hour but not
less than 18.000 m 3/h.

Separate exhaust systems shall be provided for the required rooms, which shall be kept
under a slight negative pressure condition, e.g. when dangerous or disadvantageous gases
and odours may occur.

Supply air shall be served on low level only, where heavy gases may occur.

In general, the outlets for exhaust systems shall be located on high level and shall be
equipped with diffusers, grilles or valves, as required.

Wherever heavy gases may occur, the intakes for exhaust system shall be located on high
level and also on low level in order to take 50% of exhaust flow rate from underneath the
ceiling and 50% from lower level.

Cross-flow system serving all area and corners of the ventilated room shall be provided for
battery room and pump room.

Wherever combustion gases, vapour of fumes may occur, only explosion proof enclosed
motors and non-sparking materials shall be used for exhaust fans (in particular for battery

The above layout provides for a highly available DMS/MMS system to the user by
means of having a fault tolerant data replicated system with an off-site online data
replica. The user should get uninterrupted access (99.999% of the time) to the
systems regardless of failures that may occur in the background. This is the reason
why there are two rooms with the same equipment in each room. If one of the rooms
fails (due to power loss, natural disaster etc.), then the other takes over. Likewise, in
each room, if either the DMS or MMS system fails, then the other one takes over.

U.2 Raised floor

P2_27Instrum_and_Control_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 10

Part P2.27 Instrumentation and Control Working Doc.

The design of analogue controls shall meet the VDI/VDE Standards 3501 to 3504 and 3507.

1.8.2 Plant Master Controller (PMC)


A Plant Master Controller (PMC) shall be provided. It shall control and monitor the whole plant
electrical power generation and water production. To fulfil this task, the PMC shall use the
respective demand set points, input either by the CCR operator or received from the Load
Despatch Centre and the current loading of the sub-ordinate units and accordingly generate
outputs for safe and optimised control of the sub-ordinate units, i.e. GTGs, HRSGs, BPSTs,
Auxiliary boiler and desalination units. The number of units/equipment in service along with their
current loading shall be used to determine the distribution of the overall demands on the subordinate units. If the desalination demand is fixed, the GTGs shall be used to meet the new
electrical load demand with appropriate control of the HRSGs supplementary firing rates. If the
power demand (MW) is fixed, increase or decrease in the steam demand for the desalination units
shall be achieved by varying the HRSGs supplementary firing rates and the GTGs load shall
compensate for the change in the BPSTs load due to the steam demand changes in order to
maintain a fixed electrical load. If the supplementary firing of all the HRSGs is not in service and
the desalination demand is fixed, the Auxiliary Boilers shall start and maintain the pressure on the
HP steam header. Control by diverter damper may be considered if satisfying operational
experience for the considered type and size of the damper is available.
The PMC shall have the following master controllers:

High Pressure Steam Header Master Pressure Controller (HP MPC).

Low Pressure Steam Header Master Pressure Controller (LP MPC).

Intermediate Pressure Steam Header Master Pressure Controller (IP MPC).

Electrical Load Controller (ELC).

Supplementary Firing Burners Controller (SFBC).

Diverter Damper Controller (DDC).

Auxiliary Boiler Controller (ABC).

A sophisticated software programme shall be designed in the PMC to perform the functions of
each of the above master controllers. The programme shall include set point generators, set point
adjusters and all the necessary logic and functions. The units shall be selected to PMC mode to
enable set point control externally by the PMC. The PMC software shall also perform on-line
calculation for the overall mass and heat balance of the plant in order to have a continuous
monitoring and adjustment to the set points of the electrical load, SFB load, auxiliary boiler load as
appropriate to ensure stability and smooth operation of the electrical network and steam network
under all conditions of normal operation and during disturbances such as trip of BPST, trip of
desalination unit, trip of GTG, trip of SFB, trip of HRSG and trip of the auxiliary boiler. Cascade
tripping shall be avoided.
In normal operation of the plant, the overall load is controlled by means of the GTGs, the pressure
of the HP steam header is controlled by means of the SFBs, the pressure of the LP steam header
is controlled by the BPST governor and the pressure of the IP steam header is controlled by the
BPST extraction control valves. As the pressure control of the LP steam header is very essential,
a feed-forward control function shall be provided to act on the SFBs as an anticipatory function for
steam flow changes. This is necessary to avoid severe variations of the pressure of the LP steam
header at the time of a unit trip.
Further aspects of the control of the Steam system are described in the Specifications P2.6 Steam
Turbine units and Auxiliaries and P2.7 Steam System.

1.8.3 Boiler Stress Evaluator and Lifetime Counter


In connection with the automatic control system of the boiler a stress evaluator shall calculate the
actual thermal stresses existing on any thick part of the boiler (drum, headers, etc.), and compare
them with maximum permissible stresses.
Similar to the turbine stress evaluator, the permissible gradient variation shall be indicated,
recorded and incorporated into automatic start-up of the combined cycle. The boiler stress
evaluator of the HRSG shall be effective during the start-up of the HRSG and shall affect the
positioning of the diverter damper. It shall not have any effect on the GTG loading gradient. When
the diverter damper is fully open and the HRSG is loaded, the boiler stress evaluator shall be
disabled.
All other functionality will be similar as those of the turbine stress evaluator.
The stress evaluator shall be combined with HRSG Lifetime Counter.

1.8.4 Steam Turbine Control


Refer to Part P2.6 Steam Turbine Units and Auxiliaries, Item 4.23 for detailed specification of the
Steam Turbine Control.

1.8.4.1 Speed Control


In automatic mode the start-up and loading is realised automatically considering the start
temperature and the thermal stress.
During synchronisation, the speed controller receives signals (H/L) from the synchronising
equipment. When connected to grid the position setpoint is automatically increased to reach a
minimum load. The load-automatic increases the position setpoint from minimum load up to the
adjusted target load.

1.8.4.2 Speed Measurement and Supervision


The speed shall be measured by six (6) probes. Three (3) probes shall be dedicated to the
hardware over speed protection system and the other 3 probes shall be used in the fail safe redundant protection system and the steam turbine controller. The speed signal to be used for
control shall be the median selection among the 3 signals. All the six speed probes and channels
shall be continuously supervised and any fault shall be alarmed and the faulty signal shall be
excluded from the protection logic/selection gate. High deviation between the signals shall also be
supervised. High deviation shall be alarmed and high high deviation shall be considered as a fault
and the faulty signal shall be excluded with alarm message.
The speed measuring system shall be able to monitor reliably the turning speed. If this is not
feasible the probes as described above, a separate system of sensors shall be provided for low
speed measurement.

1.8.4.3 Gland Steam Pressure and Temperature Control


The gland steam pressure controller shall maintain a constant pressure of few mbar above the
atmosphere in order to prevent air from entering those parts of the turbine whose pressure is below
atmosphere.
During start-up of the turbine, the steam is taken from auxiliary steam header and later on form the
turbine HP-part.
The gland steam pressure shall be measured by two transmitters.

P2_27Instrum_and_Control_Working_Doc.doc

Page: 12

Part P2.27 Instrumentation and Control Working Doc.

The temperature controller shall keep the gland steam temperature downstream of the gland
steam cooler in an acceptable range by means of injecting condensate through the spray water
control value into the gland steam cooler.

1.8.4.4 Steam Turbine Stress Evaluator and Lifetime Counter


In connection with the automatic turbine speed/load control a stress evaluator shall calculate the
actual thermal stresses existing on any critical turbine parts and compare them with the maximum
permissible stresses.
The turbine stress evaluator shall supervise and monitor, based on the surface temperature of the
HP- and IP-rotor, the stress of the steam turbine during all operating conditions and forms signal
which limits the steam turbine controller.
Because the surface temperature of the rotor cannot be measured, a substitute metal temperature
shall be provided. This measurement includes thermocouples which will be installed at proper
places where the temperature of admission steam is identical with the temperature of the rotor.

A fully co-ordinated automatic control system shall be provided and shall give the appropriate rate
of delivery of feedwater to each HRSG and each Auxiliary Boiler to meet the prevailing steam
demand over the full operating range, whilst maintaining the drum water level to within 25 mm of
the desired setting. Under normal/ abnormal load changing conditions of changing flow demand
the transient departure from normal water level shall remain within the drum tripping limits, i.e. the
tripping limits shall not be reached.
During and subsequent to all the plant operating modes including plant trips, such as a trip of a
desalination unit from full load or a trip of BPST from full load, the drum levels shall be maintained
within the tripping limits, i.e. the tripping limits shall not be reached.
The water level in the boiler drum shall be controlled by feed water control valves capable of
