ALSTOM signs two 8-year long-term service agreements in
Asia

ALSTOM
has signed two 8-year long-term service agreements (LTSA)
with the Baosteel Group in China and with the Socialist
Republic of Vietnams National Utility, Electricity
Vietnam (EVN).

The
LTSA contract with the Baosteel Group in China covers the
supply of maintenance services for the Bao Shan
combined-cycle cogeneration power plant. The Baosteel Group
is one of the major corporations in the Asian steel market
and is the largest producer of high-tech and high-value-added
steel products in China.

The
contract comprises the supply of new and reconditioned hot
gas path components and technical field service personnel to
carry out the scheduled major inspections and all field
assessments for a period of 8 years.

The
144 MW Bao Shan plant is powered by one ALSTOM-supplied
GT11N2-LBTU gas turbine and one steam turbine. The plant,
situated at Baosteels steel mill close to Shanghai,
burns blast furnace gas from the steel production and
supplies its electrical power back into the mill. The GT11N2
gas turbine has, to date, accumulated over 170 starts and
39,000 operating hours.

In the
Socialist Republic of Vietnam, the LTSA signed with EVN
covers the supply of spare parts, reconditioning of hot gas
path components and related outage and maintenance services
for the Phu My 2.1 and Phu My 4 gas-fired combined-cycle
power plants. Both plants are based on ALSTOM GT13E2 gas
turbines. The two 450 MW plants are located in the Phu My
Power complex in the Vung Tau province close to Ho Chi Minh
City.

Both
contracts demonstrate our customers long-term
confidence and reinforce the long-standing relationships that
exists between ALSTOM and these two key customers in
Asia.
