It has been almost 1 year and still struggling with the current project, realization of the 1147.5MW Sugen Combined Cycle Power Plant(Torrent Power Limited), the project that has been long waiting by the sate government of Gujarat in Surat City, India after been delaying for few years.
1 block has been handed over a couple of weeks ago and 2 more blocks to go. 1 block consisting of a unit of Gas Turbine Siemens V94.3A capacity of 268MW(at 15C ambient temperature), a unit of Steam Turbine capacity of 130MW, a unit of Hydrogen Cooled Generator capacity of 384Mvar of appearance power driven by a common shaft(single shaft with triple S clucth), the one and only of it kind(single shaft combined cycle) in Indian Continent so far.
It's been a great honour to my group(operation and technical team) that the first block was able to be delivered on time(even couple of weeks earlier than expected). Bravo! A great effort, a great teamwork, what a great management team we have. Parties after parties we had gone through(turning gear, first fire, fire syncronization, Steam Turbine in combine cycle operation, completion of Reliablity Test Run, Final Acceptance Test). Finally efforts getting paid!
Life has go on, nobody knows where is their next project, you want the place you go or you dislike the place you also have to go with no choices or you got fired! This is a part commissioning life, time is no limited, must be fully focused, fully fitted, no family affair, no enjoyment, no shopping, less sleep most of the time and working life always pushing up to the limit...BIG SCRIFACTION are required most of the times in order to succeed. See you all later...adiosssssssssss
