GE Oil Gas to provide advanced turbomachinery for TANAP project
(MENAFN- Arab News) GE Oil & Gas will provide high-end turbomachinery for phase 1 of the landmark Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP) a partnership between the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) Turkey's state-owned BOTAS (Petroleum Pipeline Corporation) and BP that will transport gas from Azerbaijan via Turkey to European energy markets providing benefits of uninterrupted gas flow as well as security and diversification of energy resources.
The multimillion dollar contract provides critical systems referred to as the heart of the pipeline comprising aeroderivative gas turbine driven centrifugal compressor packages also known as turbo-compressor trains all manufactured packaged and tested by GE Oil & Gas in Florence (Italy) for shipment in 2017.
The deal supports the commissioning of phase 1 of TANAP scheduled to come online in 2018. GE Oil & Gas' state-of-the-art equipment was successful in being chosen due to its high levels of operational efficiency as well as lower emissions and lower maintenance.
This is an example of the GE Store at work when technologies and expertise are drawn from across the company. In this case aeroderivative gas turbines technologies from GE Aviation are applied to the oil and gas industry.
Rami Qasem president and CEO GE Oil & Gas MENAT said: 'We are pleased to be providing technologically advanced GE O&G solutions for the prestigious TANAP project and building partnerships and trust with SOCAR BOTAS and BP. This marks a key milestone for GE Oil & Gas and underlines our long-term commitment to Turkey where GE has been driving several localization initiatives as part of its $900 million investment announced in 2012 in support of Turkey's Vision 2023.'
He added: 'The contract reiterates our commitment and proven track-record to support game-changer projects such as TANAP that will support local economies and job creation.'
