Awarded by Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity, the contract requires the company to supply and deliver spare parts for the power plant’s four SGT5-2000E gas turbines, and perform significant upgrades, remote monitoring and diagnostic services, and field service for an initial period of four years.
Specifically, the upgrades include major overhauls of the SGT5-2000E turbines with advanced Siemens’ 3-dimensional (Si3D) blades and vanes to provide the plant with optimal technical and economic benefits.
Siemens Energy Service Division CEO Randy Zwirn said, "As Iraq continues on its path to restore and improve the country’s long-term, reliable energy production, ensuring its energy producing assets are performing reliably and at optimum levels is extremely important."
