In August 2017, MHPS embarked on a rigorous testing regime to
validate the mechanical drive performance of their 2-shaft 118MW
H-100 Gas Turbine equipped with their low NOx (single digit ppm)
combustion system. After successful completion of testing protocol
and a detailed technical review by their qualification team, Shell
announced their official qualification of the MHPS gas turbine on
December 22, 2017. This followed Shell’s earlier qualification of
the MHPS 108MW H-100 gas turbine in 2015. Shell has already
qualified Mitsubishi Compressors by Enterprise Frame Agreement
effective in 2011, clearing the way for MHPS and MCO to supply all
components for future Shell LNG compression systems.
Upon receiving notification from Shell, MHI President & CEO
Shunichi Miyanaga commented, “This milestone in the continued
development of the H-100 gas turbine underscores Mitsubishi’s
competitiveness as the main driver for world-scale LNG liquefaction
trains and complements the H-Series strong position in the thermal
power plant market. Our goal is to provide our customers with high
reliability and productivity, while reducing emissions, complexity,
and the overall cost of LNG production.”
The heavy-duty H-100 Gas Turbine also offers best in class
efficiency and reliability with low-maintenance. Benefits of the
two-shaft gas turbine for LNG mechanical drive applications include
a broad variable-speed operating window, train restarts under
settle-out pressure. H-100 gas turbine also adds the benefit such
as shortened start-up time and a significantly reduced plot
size.
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group will further integrate and
expand the diverse product and technology lineup of its energy and
oil & gas business to meet market needs.
