ALSTOM has won a 170 millions contract with independent power producer
Keppel Merlimau Cogen Pte Ltd to build a turnkey combined cycle power
plant in Singapore.
The 500MW plant, located on Jurong Island, will supply power to the Singaporean network. Under the turnkey contract, ALSTOM will design, construct and commission the dual-fuel (gas/oil) combined cycle power plant and supply two GT13E2 gas turbines, two heat recovery boilers, one steam turbine and associated equipment.
ALSTOM has also been awarded an 18-year operation and maintenance contract for the site, covering scheduled and unscheduled maintenance as well as operation and maintenance support. The plant is scheduled to commence operation in the first quarter of 2007.
