This is the second unit commissioned by the company at the Oman Refinery and Petrochemical plant in Muscat.
Another unit of similar rating was commissioned at the same project in May 2010, and both the units will provide captive power generation for the oil refinery.
The power units were engineered, manufactured and supplied by BHEL’s Hyderabad plant while the control system was supplied by its Bangalore unit.
BHEL said that Oman is a key export market for it, and the company has installed 16 gas turbine sets with a cumulative capacity of more than 1,250MW in Oman.
