Implementing phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) in turbine inspection and maintenance marks an evolution from traditional maintenance to more advanced solutions that ensure efficiency and reliability.

The ammonia-capable bulk carriers will be equipped with a dual-fueling mechanism comprised of a traditional diesel oil system and a clean-fuel system.

This funding follows last year’s $11 million investment in the New York facility to support new capacity, facility maintenance, and equipment and tool management.

Gas turbine systems are the heart and soul of many defense—including naval and aero—and commercial offshore operations, providing reliable, efficient power.

The hydrogen-ready gas turbine will be installed at the Jafurah Cogeneration Independent Steam and Power Plant (ISPP).

This agreement builds on a 2021 collaboration in Australia in which Baker Hughes supplied gas turbines and compressors for Woodside’s Pluto LNG train 2 project.

The July/August 2024 issue offers comprehensive coverage on industrial and aeroderivative gas turbines, steam, and hydro turbines.

Flexibility and turbine advancements were the focal point of Wednesday’s panel.

The two plants, Taiba 2 and Qassim 2, will be built in the western and central regions of Saudi Arabia and will initially operate in simple-cycle mode before switching to combined-cycle operation.

Eight gas turbines will be delivered to the Taiba 1 and Qassim 1 power plants, which are expected to deliver up to 3.8 GW of electricity to the national grid.
