Power Generation Control Systems By Dr. Eng. Ahmed Hegazy – Senior Electrical Engineer
In compliance with Burullus Gas Company request, Enppi performed a technical study to define the possible methods to ensure continuity of energy production when some power generation units are broken down. Actually, power generation by gas turbines is a most popular practice applied within the Petroleum Sector and it is regarded as appropriate means due to the existence of the natural gas, which is utilized as turbines' fuel. Burullus Gas Company has three power generation gas turbines in Idku and in case one or more of these units is broken down, production ceases, eventually leading to great financial loss for the company.
Simple Idea of the Applied Method
When part of the power generation units breaks down, it leads to instability of the generated power energy and the consuming load leading to full break down of all generation units due to its failure to provide the required power energy for the loads. The study was based on a full assessment of the loads and its conservation to ensure continuity of the energy production and loads that can be spare for one whole hour until full operation of all units is restored.
Objective of the new Method
This technique depends on self-sufficiency through the utilization of the existing potentialities of instrument control of the power generation system and the project power station to ensure project continued production for two years without adding new instruments and avoiding production delay.
Load shedding system was selected to reduce loads when a part of the generation units is broken down. The power generation control system defines the frequency, voltage neutral ratio and level in parts of the network and values of generators operation, validity of the active and passive voltages and maximum limits to charge the generators. Continued mutual communication exists between turbines control system and that of the electric station starting from executing the steps of load shedding program and registering the duration of each step. The control system analyzes operation of the electric network after each step.
If the result is instability of generation system, then control system starts a new load shedding until achieving full stability in conservation of the gas producing loads to maintain project investment value. Results of the Technical Study, which were implemented on Burullus project, were submitted to the Faculty of Engineering, Ain Shams University for verification. This study was verified and published as research document in their Scientific Newsletter of June 2005, Volume No. "40".

Offshore Control & Power Module Air Conditioning By Eng. Mohamad Kamel, Mechanical / HVAC Lead Engineer
First: Air Conditioning and Ventilation Systems
The general proposed HVAC systems methods for this application are as follows: Natural Ventilation; with two sets of special louvers installed in opposite walls; one in wind direction and the other in the opposite, to let air in. Forced Ventilation; with one set of special louvers and exhaust air fans installed in the opposite walls. Louvers are preferably installed in wind direction. Air conditioning (cooling) by air conditioner(s) with pressurization fan; (with environmental friendly refrigerant, DX, direct expansion or vapor compression cycle). Air conditioning (cooling) by air conditioner(s) without pressurization fan; (with environmental friendly refrigerant, DX, direct expansion or vapor compression cycle). Passive Cooling; This is supposed to be the most optimum choice in case of non existence of adequate power to utilize the above proposed systems.
Second:
Description of Passive Cooling System
The Passive Cooling System Schematic diagram, based on the thermal inertia of a specific designed quantity of water and using the natural convective movement of that fluid during the different phases of the day/night conditions (heat absorption and release), can meet the requirements without any energy supply or mechanical components in motion employing only water (offshore applications). During the day, when TE (External Ambient Temperature) is higher than TI (Internal Ambient Temperature): the heat produced by the internal equipment is transferred to the water mass through the internal exchangers surface integrated with the lower part of the water tanks. This means that the temperature value of the water will be increased. The water quantity must be suitable for the heat released by the equipment included in the power module. At night, when TI (Internal Ambient Temperature) is higher than TE (External Ambient Temperature): the heat absorbed by the water tanks during daytime is released by the external exchangers installed over the passive cooling unit. The cooled water specific gravity is now greater than the water specific gravity inside the water tanks and consequently we have a natural motion without any electrical power supply or mechanical components. The minimum temperature can be achieved at the peak time (theoretically around 34oC and actually may vary to 35oC or more). For more internal loads, the water quantity must be increased and then the power module size will be increased consequently.
Passive cooling system is installed (as shown) above the power module. (More height, more weight, more space and more cost of the power module due to the needed structures and frames).
