2.4 DRIVEN EQUIPMENT

C33 C33 Compressor Driven Skid

The C33 C33 compressor driven skid includes the centrifugal compressors mounted on a structural steel
matching base that, when bolted to the driver skid, forms a continuous base plate on which all the
required subsystems are installed. This skid is commonly referred to as the driven skid.

The driven skid is complete and includes all the necessary accessories, auxiliary and control systems for
functional operation. Solar's compressor sets with a single Solar compressor can produce pressure ratios
of over 3:1 while multiple, tandem-mounted compressors can produce pressure ratios approaching 30:1.

Solar Gas Compressors

Solar gas compressors are designed to achieve a minimum of three years of continuous full-load duty
between inspections, and major components are designed for 20 years of continuous operation. Many
features commonly used in Solar's compressor designs conform to American Petroleum Institute (API)
617.

Standard features include:

• Vertically split barrel-type construction


• Tilt-pad journal bearings
• Self-aligning tilt-pad thrust bearings
• Rigid modular rotor construction
• Rotor trim balancing
• Overcompensating balance piston
• Radial vibration measurement
• Thrust bearing temperature sensors

NOTE: Solar has developed three spare packages for gas compressor support to increase system
availability and reduce the risk of extended outages. For details please see Solar's PIL 212 available upon
request.

Impellers

Compressor impellers are designed to conservative stress levels. All impellers are suitable for sour gas
applications. Each impeller, after machining, is proof tested to 115% of its maximum mechanical speed.

Rotor Assembly

The rotor assembly consists of stub shafts, impellers, a centerbolt and, if required, rotor spacers to
maintain a constant bearing span. These components are individually balanced and are rabbet-fit to each
other for concentric alignment. Torque is transmitted through dowel pins. The entire assembly is clamped
together with the centerbolt. The rotor assembly is easy to disassemble. The benefits from this type of
construction are two-fold. Impellers that can be used in a "restaged" rotor are easily salvaged and
downtime is minimized. Reusing old impellers, instead of purchasing new ones to match new operating
conditions, enhances the economic feasibility of restaging to maintain optimum compressor performance
and the lowest possible operating costs.

Casings

The pressure-containing outer casing of a gas compressor is an assembly of three major components: the
suction and discharge end caps, which contain the bearing and seal assemblies, and the centerbody,
which holds the rotor and stator assemblies. This is considered a vertically split "barrel" design. The end
caps contain all the service ports for oil and gas supply and discharge.

Compressor Flange Orientation, C33

The compressor flanges shall be oriented with the suction flange on the right hand side of the compressor
body and the discharge flange on the left hand side as viewed from the driven skid facing forward towards
the driver skid. This is the standard configuration for this compressor body.

Compressor Flange Orientation, C33

The compressor flanges shall be oriented with the suction flange on the right hand side of the compressor
body and the discharge flange on the left hand side as viewed from the driven skid facing forward towards
the driver skid. This is the standard configuration for this compressor body.

Lube Oil System

The gas turbine, C33 C33 compressors have a common lube oil system.

Compressor Dry Seal System

The dry seal system consists of the seal gas and separation gas systems. The seal system maintains a
barrier between the process gas and the compressor bearings. The separation gas system maintains a
barrier between the compressor bearing lube oil and the dry gas seals.

Seal Gas System, NACE Compliant

The seal gas system consists of a primary and secondary gas face seal to prevent the escape of process
gas from each shaft end. The primary dry seal takes the full pressure drop. It is used to provide the main
sealing function. The secondary or backup seal acts as an emergency barrier between the process gas
and the atmosphere and operates at a zero-pressure differential.

The system can use clean and dry process gas or an independent clean and dry gas source as seal gas.
A customer-furnished separation gas source of air or nitrogen is required to isolate lube oil from the seal
gas. The separation gas must be available at all times during lube oil pump operation. Typical seal gas
supply flow is 1.34 to 3.35 nm3/min (50 to 125 scfm) at 689 kPag (100 psig) above maximum suction
pressure, depending on the compressor model and suction pressure. See PIL 140 for specific demands
for each compressor model. The seal gas flow rates are metered by maintaining a constant pressure drop
across a flow-limiting orifice in each seal gas supply line to each compressor seal capsule. Differential
pressure switches provide low flow alarm and shutdown functions.

The seal gas supply flow is higher than the primary seal leakage. The majority of the seal gas flow travels
past the compressor shaft labyrinth seals and into the compressor case. This ensures the dry seal cavity
is flushed with clean dry gas and that the dry seal operates in a clean environment. The seal gas may be
supplied from the compressor discharge, preferably downstream of the gas cooler, provided the process
gas is clean and dry.

Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
The onskid duplex seal gas coalescing filters are designed for typical clean transmission pipeline
conditions. If larger particle or liquid loads are expected, a larger off-skid filtration system with a high-
pressure external seal gas supply is recommended. When the seal gas is supplied from the compressor
discharge, but the compressor is not operating with a pressure ratio (start-up, shutdown, or pressurize
hold), there is no flow of seal gas through the filters. During these times, the gas leakage across the dry
seals is raw process gas from the compressor case. This is normally not a problem on clean transmission
pipeline applications; however, it may be an issue on new pipelines during initial operation, or on pipelines
handling wet and/or dirty gas. Under these conditions, an external high-pressure seal gas supply is
recommended. Leakage past the primary dry seals is measured by monitoring the pressure drop across
an orifice run. High leakage flow alarms and shutdowns are provided by a pressure transmitter. Primary
and secondary seal vent lines must be vented by the customer to a safe location.

The dry gas seal system materials (piping, manifolds, tubing, fittings and functional components) are
selected for compliance with NACE MR0175. This standard does not address forms of corrosion or failure
other than sulfide stress corrosion cracking. The NACE compliant systems include:

• 316L Stainless Steel Piping and Flanges


• 316 Stainless Steel Fittings and 316L Stainless Steel Tubing
• NACE Compliant Functional Components including valves, switches and gauges

The use of a pilot air supply for shutoff valve actuators is recommended so that sour gas is not used as
pilot gas.

Dry Gas Seal System Pressure Rating

The seal gas system will be designed to a maximum pressure of 2900 psig at 200°F.

Compressor Discharge Seal Gas Source for Dry Seal System

The seal gas is supplied from the "discharge" of the compressor. This feature provides a package service
connection so that the seal gas can be sourced after the process gas discharge cooler. If the compressor
discharge temperature is below 93°C (200°F), then the seal gas supply line can be run onskid and the
service connection for seal gas supply can be eliminated.

Also included is a driven skid service connection for buffer air for the outboard air seals. The nominal flow
rate is 0.134 nm3/min (5 scfm) per compressor and this air supply must be maintained during all phases
of compressor pressurization, dry seal vent pressurization and/or lube pump operation.

When the seal gas is supplied from the compressor discharge but the compressor is not operating with a
pressure ratio (start-up, shutdown, or pressurized hold), there is no flow of seal gas through the filters.
During these times, the gas leakage across the dry seals is raw process gas from the compressor case.
This is normally not a problem on clean transmission pipeline applications; however, it may be an issue on
new pipelines during initial operation, or on pipelines handling wet and/or dirty gas. Under these
conditions, an external high-pressure seal gas supply is recommended.

Electric Seal Gas Boost System

When the seal gas is supplied from the compressor discharge, but the compressor is not operating at a
positive pressure ratio (i.e., at start-up, shutdown, or pressurized hold), there is no flow of seal gas
through the filters. During this type of operation, the gas leakage across the dry seals is raw process gas
from inside the compressor case. This is normally not a problem on clean transmission pipeline
applications; however, it may be a problem on new pipelines (until the new line cleans up) or on pipelines
handling wet and/or dirty gas. Solar offers a seal gas booster for these applications to prevent unfiltered
gas from contaminating the dry gas seals.

A Seal Gas Booster System supplies a source of seal gas pressure during startup, shutdown and
pressurized hold. The seal gas booster system is bypassed during normal operation. The booster is an
electric motor driven compressor that provides an increase in seal gas pressure that results in the desired
flow across the compressor labyrinth seals. The electric motor is driven by a variable frequency drive that
modulates the motor speed in order to supply seal gas at the required pressure and flow.

Scope of Supply:

• Boost compressor and motor assembly


• Filters with differential transmitter
• Transmitters
• RTDs
• Shutoff valves
• Check valve
• Variable frequency drive
• Piping and mounting hardware

Duplex Separation Air Filter

Duplex buffer air supply filters will be provided including isolation valves for filter change out.

Separation Gas System

A circumferential buffer air or nitrogen circumferential-segmented split-ring type seal provides a barrier
between the compressor bearing lube oil and the dry gas seals. It is the most outboard component of the
complete seal assembly. Air flows between the seal rings and the compressor stub shaft. Separation gas
flowing past the outboard seal mixes with lubricating oil and drains to the lube oil reservoir. Air flowing
past the inboard seal is vented through the secondary seal gas/buffer air vent.

The separation gas source may be clean dry shop air, instrument air, or nitrogen and must be supplied by
the customer. The system includes a hand valve for maintenance, a coalescing filter, a differential
pressure regulator, and pressure switches and gauges to monitor the separation gas differential pressure.
The system forms a positive separation between the lube oil and the dry seal. Flame arrestors are
supplied for the primary and secondary vents. Leakage seal gas and separation gas must be piped away
by the customer to selected safe areas.

Hydrostatic Testing

Hydrostatic pressure testing of all compressor casings and end caps is done per API 617 for 30 minutes
at 1.5 times the maximum casing design pressure, regardless of application. Parts are thoroughly cleaned
prior to testing to ensure all leaks are visible. Test water is treated with a rust inhibitor and the
components are thoroughly cleaned and dried after the completion of the test to prevent corrosion. After
the compressor completes assembly and testing, it is painted per Solar's paint specification ES 9-58.

Preliminary Alignment

The drive train is aligned preliminarily at the factory to simplify final field alignment.

Coupling and Guard, Kop-Flex

Included in the scope are the compressor set couplings which are supplied by Kop-Flex. These couplings
are manufactured and balanced per API671. Couplings are dry disc type reduced moment style. Coupling
hubs interface with power turbines and compressors through a splined connection with centering pilots at
both ends of the spline. Included in the scope are the coupling guards and adapter rings. Attached to the
driving and driven housing is an adapter ring with a two piece split cover clamped around the two adapter

100%) duplex filters (same design philosophy as the separation seals). Include double block and bleed
valves.

Electric Seal Gas Boost System

Solar will provide an off-skid electric seal gas boost system for multi-body compressor sets where the
minimum suction pressure of the train is below 1500 psig, and the maximum discharge pressure is above
1500 psig (up to 3500 psig).

2.5 START SYSTEM

Direct Drive AC Motor Driven Start System

General Description

The start system provides torque to initiate engine rotation and to assist the engine in reaching a self-
sustaining speed. The start system consists of a direct-drive AC starter motor driven by a solid-state
variable frequency drive (VFD).

Functional Description

To begin gas turbine rotation, the VFD initially provides low-frequency AC power to the starter motor. The
VFD gradually increases the speed of the starter motor until the gas turbine reaches purging speed. When
purging is completed, the control system activates the fuel system. The speed of the starter motor is
gradually increased until the gas turbine reaches starter dropout speed. The VFD then deenergizes the
starter motor and the motor clutch assembly is disengaged. Assuming a four-minute purge crank, the
system is designed to provide three consecutive full-speed start attempts with 10-minute motor rest
periods between attempts. Depending upon ambient temperature, turbine conditions purge crank time and
motor rest period time, fewer or more consecutive start attempts may be possible.

Starter Motor

The starter motor provides high breakaway starting torque and acceleration from standstill to starter
dropout speed. The motor is a standard frame size and is constructed to be explosion proof and
flameproof. The motor includes an integral over-temperature protection thermostat connected to the
Turbotronic control system for hazardous area motor certification and protection. Separate cable/conduit
entry points are provided for power connections, thermal protection wiring, and the space heater wiring.
Starting power is transferred to the gas turbine via the reduction-drive gearbox and over-running clutch
and shaft assemblies.

Variable Frequency Drive

The variable frequency drive (VFD) is a motor speed controller that provides pulse-width modulated power
with variable frequency and voltage to the starter motor. Controlled by the Turbotronic control system, the
VFD regulates voltage and frequency to the starter motor to control engine speed from standstill to starter
dropout speed.

The VFD cabinet is designed for installation in a non-hazardous location. Electrical disconnects and
overcurrent protection devices are not provided.

Power Wiring

The start system requires customer-furnished three-phase AC input. Additional three-phase AC power
wiring is required to connect the VFD to the starter motor. A start contactor is not required for VFD
operation. A customer-furnished fused disconnect at the VFD input is recommended.

2.6 FUEL SYSTEM

General Description

The fuel system, in conjunction with the control system, includes all necessary components to control
ignition and fuel flow during all modes of operation.

Solar has proposed the Natural Gas, Conventional Combustion fuel system for this application.

Conventional Combustion System

Solar's conventional combustion system uses fuel injectors equally spaced around the combustor to inject
fuel into the combustion chamber. The fuel injected into the combustion chamber is controlled during
starting and steady-state operation to maintain stable combustion.

Gas Fuel System

The fuel system includes:

• Supply Pressure Transmitter


• Pilot air operated primary gas fuel shutoff valve
• Pilot air operated secondary gas fuel shutoff valve
• Pilot air operated gas vent valve
• Electrically operated fuel control valve
• Torch with shutoff valve and pressure regulators
• Main fuel manifold
• Fuel injectors
• Inlet gas filter loose shipped for field installation

NOTE: Any gas turbine fuels that do not meet Solar Specification ES9-98 can have an impact on engine
performance, operating life, and engine warranty. Refer to Solar's Product Information Letter (PIL) 162,
"Recommendations and Requirements for the Sourcing, Handling, Storage, and Treatment of Fuels for
Solar Gas Turbines," to ensure high fuel quality for optimum performance.

Any provision for an air ingress prevention
device at the gas vent alongside the flame
arrester

Component Operation

The gas fuel pressure supplied to the turbine skid must meet minimum and maximum pressure and flow
requirements. If the gas fuel pressure is too high, the control system will prevent turbine operation. If the
gas fuel pressure is too low during start, an alarm is annunciated and turbine start is inhibited.
Pneumatically actuated primary and secondary gas fuel shutoff valves are controlled using pilot air
pressure. For each valve, pilot air pressure is admitted to and exhausted from a pneumatic actuator
through a solenoid valve. Fail-safe operation ensures both valves will close in case pilot air pressure or the
command signal is lost.

The gas fuel control valve is powered by integrated DC motor-driven actuators. Integrated actuator
electronics provide precise, closed-loop valve control based on position command inputs versus position
feedback outputs. Both valves are fast acting and provide fuel metering for light-off, acceleration, full load,
and load transient conditions. Fail-safe operation ensures both valves will close in case the command
signal or control power is lost. During the start sequence prior to ignition, the control system will verify gas
pressure and perform a gas valve check to ensure proper operation of all gas fuel valves.

Fuel Control Valve, Gas Fuel, Stainless Steel Valve Body

The gas fuel control valve is electrically operated and electronically controlled by means of an integral
120-Vdc powered actuator that incorporates a brushless dc servo motor, a linear ball screw drive, a digital
controller for precise motor control, and a resolver for position feedback. Control outputs and inputs are 0
to 24 Vdc for discrete signals and 4 to 20 mA for analog signals.

The valve can operate in ambient temperatures up to 93°C (200°F). It has a turndown ratio that exceeds
400:1 and provides excellent metering of low light-off and acceleration gas fuel flows, as well as full load
and load transient flow conditions. Response time is less than 100 msec from 10-to-90% stroke. Fail-safe
operation ensures bubble tight valve closing in case of loss of either the command signal or the control
power. The valve body is fabricated from stainless steel.

2.7 LUBRICATION SYSTEM

General Description

The lubrication system circulates oil under pressure to the gas turbine and driven equipment. Lube oil is
supplied from the lube oil tank located in the driver skid.

The lubrication system incorporates the following components:

• Stainless Steel oil tank and tank covers


• Oil tank heater
• Lube oil (customer furnished)
• Gas turbine driven main lube oil pump
• VFD AC Motor-driven pre/post lube oil pump
• DC Motor-driven backup lube oil pump
• 120 VDC Step starter (ordinary duty)
• Stainless Steel filter system
• Duplex lube oil filter system with replaceable elements
• Oil level, pressure, and temperature indications
• Pressure and temperature regulators

Petroleum Base Lube Oil, Viscosity Grade C32 (S150)

Solar's Specification ES 9-224 defines the type of lube oil acceptable for use in Solar's gas turbine engines,
gears and driven equipment during normal operating service. For each type of oil, the specification further
defines the appropriate viscosity and other physical and chemical requirements. The acceptable
conventional oil types are synthesized hydrocarbon (SHC), Class I and petroleum oils, Class II. These oils
are further categorized into viscosity grades ISO VG 32 (C32) and ISO VG 46 (C46). The lube oil system
operating temperature range, cooler bypass valve calibration, and temperature protection set points are
dependent upon the oil viscosity. The oil system control components and set points for this proposal are
based on the use of petroleum base oil, viscosity grade C32 for the rotating machinery oil temperature and
viscosity requirements and specified ambient temperature range. If a different type of oil or viscosity grade
is preferred by the purchaser, this needs to be communicated to Solar for consideration.

Gas Turbine-Driven Main Lube Oil Pump

The main lube oil pump is a positive-displacement pump. The pump is direct mounted to and driven by the
integral engine accessory drive gearbox. The pump includes a priming feature to assure rapid oil pressure
build-up with engine acceleration.

VFD AC Motor-Driven Pre/Post Lube Oil Pump

The pre/post lube oil pump provides lube oil pressure during package starting and for post-lube cooling of
the gas turbine and driven equipment bearings. The pre/post lube oil pump provides lube oil pressure
during a gas turbine roll down in the event the main lube oil pump has failed.

DC Motor-Driven Backup Lube Oil Pump

The backup lube oil pump provides lube oil pressure for post lube cooling of the gas turbine bearings in the
event the pre/post lube oil pump fails. It provides lube oil pressure during a gas turbine roll down in the
event the main lube oil pump and pre/post lube oil pump have both failed. The backup lube oil pump also

2.8 CONTROLS SYSTEM

General Description

The Turbotronic control system provides for automatic starting, acceleration to operating speed,
sequencing control, engine and driven equipment monitoring during operation, and normal and
malfunction shutdown.

During operation, the control system, by means of automatic warning and shutdown devices, protects the
turbine engine and driven equipment from possible damage resulting from hazards such as turbine over
speed, high engine temperature or vibration, low lubricating oil pressure and excessive oil temperature.
The system input power is 120 Vdc, with internal power conversion providing the 24 Vdc required by the
control circuits.

The control processor (controller) performs proportional control, start-up, operation and shutdown
sequencing and protection functions, as well as detection and annunciation of abnormal operating
conditions. Control for these functions comes from signals the controller receives from solid-state devices,
control switches, speed, pressure and temperature transmitters, relays, solenoids, and vibration sensors.
These components provide the controller with the data necessary to control and maintain desired process
conditions, while maintaining engine speed and temperature at safe levels.

In the event of an abnormal condition or malfunction, the control system indicates the nature of the
malfunction. When an alarm or shutdown is displayed, a sequence of appropriate operations begins in
response to the detected condition. In the event of a control system failure, the backup relay system
initiates a shutdown while operating the lubricating oil system and other subsystems, as required, to avoid
engine and driven equipment damage during shutdown.

The Turbotronic control system controls and monitors the turbomachinery package including the gas
turbine and driven equipment. The system architecture is based on a Rockwell Automation/Allen-Bradley
hardware and software platform and includes fully integrated driven equipment, vibration, and fire and gas
monitoring and control subsystems.

An independent backup shutdown system provides additional protection. This shuts the package down in
a safe and orderly manner in the event of malfunction of the primary control system.

System Architecture

Key system components include:

• GuardLogix controller (Allen-Bradley)


• Studio 5000 programming software (Rockwell Automation)
• 5094 Flex 5000 I/O input/output modules (Allen-Bradley)
• Vibration monitoring system
• Ethernet/IP Device Level Ring
• Onskid local operator interface (Solar Turbines)
• Independent backup shutdown system (Solar Turbines)
• Fire and gas monitoring and control system (Det-tronics)

The Ethernet/IP Device Level Ring network provides primary communications between components.
Hardwire backup is provided for critical circuits. The variable speed frequency drive (VFD) for the start
motor is typically located in a motor control center. All other components are rated NEC Class 1, Division 2
or CENELEC Zone 2 for hazardous area duty and are located on the package skid for the onskid controls
configuration or in an auxiliary console for the offskid configuration.

Note: Programming terminals used for commissioning and servicing the control system are not
suitable for use in a hazardous atmosphere. Provisions must be made through work processes and
procedures, or through the installation design, to ensure these devices can be used to access the
control system safely.

Component Descriptions

Controller

The GuardLogix controller, running Studio 5000 software, provides primary control. Project-specific
programs are created in a Windows-based system and uploaded to the controller. The Studio 5000
software supports ladder and function block programming and complies with the International Electrical
Code (IEC) 61131-3 standard for programmable controllers.

Ethernet/IP Device Level Ring

Ethernet/IP DLR is the communications backbone of the control system. It provides fast, repeatable, and
deterministic communications between the GuardLogix processor, Flex I/O modules, HMI, Variable
Frequency Drive (VFD) motor drives, and the vibration monitoring system.

TurbotronicTM Gateway

The Turbotronic control system includes a Gateway to provide security and expanded data collection
through InSight Connect. The security features provided by the Gateway include a reduction of the number
of connections directly to the ControlLogix chassis, limiting the exchange of data to authorized and
authenticated clients, data encryption, and limiting communication protocols to only those required to
exchange data. The expanded data collection includes vibration data from the Dynamix 1444 which was
previously not available from the PLC.

InSight Connect

InSight Connect, Solar's secure connectivity solution for delivering InSight PlatformTM, is embedded within
the standard product configuration. An ethernet connection to the TurbotronicTM Gateway installed near
the controller chassis establishes a link to InSight ConnectTM. InSight Connect allows for read-only
acquisition of data for remote support and technology based services, and does not allow any form of
command or control of the machinery. Connectivity options and scope will be defined in collaboration with
the customer during project execution phase. Reference Product Information Letter 268 for details.

Device Level Ring (DLR) Interconnect Media, Fiber Optic

The Device Level Ring (DLR) interconnect will be designed using fiber optic adapters to support fiber optic
Ethernet cables (Interconnect is supplied by customer). The fiber optic DLR interconnect media will
support distances up to 2 kilometers. The Solar provided copper to fiber optic converters will use duplex
"SC" type connectors, and is a 100 MB multi-mode fiber optic interface.

Input/Output Modules

Flex I/O modules provide an interface between the package instrumentation and the processor. Specific
modules handle discrete inputs, analog inputs, temperature inputs, speed inputs, discrete outputs and
analog outputs.

Rockwell Dynamix 1444 Vibration System

The Dynamix 1444 data acquisition modules are configurable to accept non-contact eddy current
(proximity) probes, velocity transducers, a standard integrated electronics piezoelectric (IEPE)
accelerometer, dynamic pressure or simple voltage signals. Each Dynamix module can monitor up to 4

Change) and Historical Logging.

The following features are available with an onskid display: Overall Vibration Amplitude, Gap Voltage, 8

Backup Shutdown System

The backup shutdown system shuts the package down in a safe and orderly manner without damage to
the equipment in the event of a failure in the primary system. The control processor is monitored by both
an internal watchdog circuit and by an external watchdog device. If either circuit detects a processor
failure, the backup system takes control. It depressurizes the compressor, closes the fuel valves, and
initiates a post lube cycle to protect the turbine bearings. Once a backup shutdown is initiated, operation
can only be restored manually from the control panel after all faults have been cleared. The emergency
stop push-button switches are wired to both the primary and backup systems.

Fire and Gas System

Enclosed packages require fire and gas control protection. The Eagle Quantum Premier system from Det-
Tronics detects combustible gas and/or fire inside the enclosure based on inputs from gas, thermal, and
optical flame detectors. If fire is detected, the system releases an extinguishing agent into the enclosure. If
a fire or an unacceptable gas level is detected, the system instructs the Turbotronic control processor to
initiate a package shutdown. The system is also wired directly to the backup shutdown system. See
Enclosure Section of this proposal for a more complete description.

Control System Power Supplies

The control system operates on 24 VDC power. The standard battery charge system provides 120 VDC
power to the control system. The control system includes a 120 to 24 volt DC-to-DC converter to supply
24 VDC power to the control system. For a more detailed description of the battery charger system, refer
to the Accessory Equipment Section of this proposal.

System Monitoring and Control Functions

The control system provides sequencing control during gas turbine startup, steady state operation, and
shutdown. Protective functions are provided during all stages of operation.

Starting and Loading

The Start command initiates the sequence. Prior to rotation, the lube oil pump undergoes a test cycle, the
enclosure fans are started, and the fuel valves undergo a test cycle with fuel pressure verification.

The starter then rotates the gas turbine and the compressor develops airflow to purge any accumulated
gas in the gas turbine, air inlet, and exhaust duct. The purge cycle is tailored to the exhaust duct volume.

Page 33

Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
When the engine has reached the required speed and temperature, a small amount of fuel is introduced
into the combustor from the gas torch and ignited by the ignitor plug. The fuel control valve gradually
opens and admits fuel into the combustor through the injectors. The inlet guide vanes open and the bleed
valve gradually closes. Fuel flow, engine temperature, and turbine speed all increase. Once starter
dropout speed is exceeded, the starter freewheels and is de-energized. The engine continues to
accelerate under its own power.

Steady-State Control

During steady-state operation, the control system keeps the equipment within specified operating
conditions. The maximum power limit is determined by engine temperature and speed.

Temperature control is based on the third-stage nozzle temperature (T5).

Twelve thermocouples are used and the values averaged. If one thermocouple has a value that deviates
from the average by more than a preset amount, an alarm is generated by the control system. If two
thermocouples deviate, the package is shut down.

Special sensors continuously monitor the gas turbine speed and the control system makes adjustments to
meet operating requirements and to keep the speed within specified limits. A separate backup overspeed
detection system provides additional protection by automatically shutting the engine down if a preset
overspeed limit is reached.

Stopping

The gas turbine may be shutdown either manually or automatically.

The Normal Stop command initiates a cooldown stop.

The gas producer runs at idle speed for a preset time to allow the gas turbine and driven equipment to
cool, then the fuel valves close. The gas compressor is depressurized (if applicable) after a preset time.
The Emergency Stop command results in the immediate depressurization of the gas compressor and
closure of the fuel valves without a cooldown period.

In the event of a hazardous condition or equipment malfunction, the control system will shut the package
down automatically. These shutdowns are divided into four categories:

• Cooldown stop nonlockout (CN)


• Cooldown stop lockout (CL)
• Fast stop nonlockout (FN)
• Fast stop lockout (FL)

Cooldown and fast stops correspond to the manual normal and emergency stops respectively. Lockout
stops inhibit operation of the control system and prevent restarting until the malfunction is reset. Lockout
stops result from serious malfunctions that require corrective action before the system can be restarted.
Nonlockout stops result from an operational disruption or abnormal condition and can be reset when
conditions return to normal.

In all cases, after the package has come to a complete stop and the rundown timer has timed out, the
control system initiates and supervises a post-lube cycle to protect the gas turbine and driven equipment
bearings from thermal damage. If the shutdown is the result of fire being detected, start of the post lube
cycle is delayed for 10 minutes unless an operator intervenes.

2.9 DRIVEN EQUIPMENT CONTROL

Single-Unit Process Control, Suction Pressure

The unit control system includes programming to regulate the turbine power to maintain a preset suction
pressure. Control logic for local and remote, single-unit, set-point adjustment is included. Control is
provided using a suction pressure transmitter that is within the recycle loop. The transmitter is also used
for anti-surge control and is loose shipped to be installed in the inlet pipe of the compressor. To ensure
accurate signal quality the transmitter should be installed in a straight run of pipe approximately three pipe
diameters upstream of the compressor suction flange and downstream of any suction inlet screen or other
flow resistances, with provisions to ensure no liquids get trapped in the lines.

If the train suction pressure (upstream of the recycle loop) is to be controlled, then a separate transmitter
is used for this purpose as the process variable (PV) input to the unit control system. This transmitter is to
be furnished and installed by the purchaser.

The purchaser must provide Solar with the normal operating pressure range and transmitter calibration
range to facilitate the control system design.

Single-Unit Process Control, Discharge Pressure

The unit control system includes programming to regulate the turbine power to maintain a preset
discharge pressure. Control logic for local and remote, single-unit, set-point adjustment is included.
Control is provided using a discharge pressure transmitter that is within the recycle loop. The transmitter
is also used for anti-surge control and is loose shipped to be installed in the outlet pipe of the compressor.
To ensure accurate signal quality the transmitter should be installed in a straight run of pipe approximately
three pipe diameters downstream of the compressor discharge flange and upstream of any discharge
scrubber, coolers or other flow resistances, with provisions to ensure no liquids get trapped in the lines.

If the train discharge pressure (downstream of the recycle loop) is to be controlled, then a separate
transmitter is used for this purpose as the process variable (PV) input to the unit control system. This
transmitter is to be furnished and installed by the purchaser.

The purchaser must provide Solar with the normal operating pressure range and transmitter calibration
range to facilitate the control system design.

Gas Compressor Surge Detection System

The integral surge detection system detects gas compressor discharge pressure pulsations and will
alarm, and if necessary initiate a shutdown if pulsations exceed a preset value within a predetermined
time period.

Anti-Surge Control

Surge at a given gas compressor speed is caused by excessive head across the gas compressor
(isentropic head) for a given suction flow rate. Therefore, surge in the gas compressor may be controlled
by decreasing the head across the gas compressor and/or by increasing the flow rate of the gas to the
suction side of the gas compressor. The anti-surge control system prevents surge by modulating a surge
control (bypass) valve to lower head and increase suction flow. A typical system consists of pressure and
temperature transmitters on the gas compressor suction and discharge lines, a flow differential pressure
transmitter across the suction flowmeter, an algorithm in the control system, and a surge control valve
with corresponding accessories to keep the gas compressor from going into surge. Also included is
control for fast stop valve to protect the compressor in the event of a sudden shutdown. For a detailed
description of the valve sizing process, refer to Solar's PIL (Product Information Letter) 216, "Anti-surge
Control Valve Selection and Fast Stop Analysis."

purchaser)
• Discharge gas temperature RTD (installed on compressor discharge flange)

Compressor Performance Map Display

This feature provides for the display of a real-time compressor nominal head-versus-cfm performance
map and shows the position of the actual operating point. The primary pressure sensing elements are
included; however, the flow sensing elements and transmitter are provided by the purchaser. The
accuracy of the map is commensurate with the accuracy of the sensing instrumentation. Compressor
maps are limited to one gas composition. Side streams, changing gas composition or other factors that
can change compressor performance characteristics must be reviewed to confirm compatibility with the

• Pressure regulator
• 3-way 24-VDC solenoid valve
• Electropneumatic valve positioner
• ½-in. NPT actuator pressure port
• Carbon steel body per ASTM A216
• Interconnecting 316L stainless steel tubing and compression-type fittings
• Temperature Limits:
o Process gas:- 6.7° to 218°C (20° to 425°F)
o Ambient:-28.9° to 60°C (-20° to 140°F)

The assembly requires clean, dry regulated air or natural gas, 552 to 862 kPag (80 to 125 psig), -28.9 to
60°C (-20 to 140°F), dew point -40°C (-40°F).

Successful operation of the anti-surge control system is dependent on correct valve selection. The
following anti-surge recycle valve has been selected based on the application data available at the time of
this proposal. Anti-surge valves are provided with approximately 100% overcapacity (2X surge flow at the
same head). If this overcapacity is insufficient to ensure surge avoidance during a shutdown, additional
valves (hot bypass) may be required. The proposed valve alone will not ensure surge is avoided during a
shutdown.

• Anti-surge recycle valve, 3-inch globe valve, Qnty:2


• Fast Stop Valve, 3-inch globe valve with 3-inch flanges, Qnty:2

This valve is sized for optimum controllability during normal operation and can handle a maximum
discharge volume of:

Compressor 1st body: TBD


Compressor 2nd body: TBD
Compressor 3rd body: TBD

to avoid compressor surge during a fast stop shutdown. If the actual discharge system volume exceeds
this value, an additional valve will be required. The discharge system volume is defined as the pipe
volume bounded by the compressor discharge flange, the discharge check valve (if installed), the anti-
surge and vent valves; and also the gas cooler volume (if installed).

Globe style valves are typically not provided with noise attenuating trims for surge control service as they
are susceptible to clogging. If recycle is anticipated as part of normal operation and noise limitation is
necessary, we recommend an additional capacity control valve. The proposed valve will not ensure <85
dba at the full recycle throttling conditions.

Surge control valves are normally provided with equal percentage characteristics. This provides for better
controllability for partial recycle with high capacity at fully open. If the proposed valve interfaces with a
Solar surge control system, a linear characteristic trim is not needed.

Spring Return Process Valve Operating Logic

Control system logic is programmed to provide a signal to operate the compressor suction, discharge, and
loading valves. Upon removal of the signal, the valves return to the normal position.

• One 3048-mm (10-ft) external trolley rail extension and A-frame support
• One 2743-mm (9-ft) external trolley rail extension and A-frame support
• Four-point engine lift tool
• Four 3-ton movable chain-fall hoists, trolleys, and lift attachments for turbine handling

The four-point engine lift tool attaches to the turbine flanges and provides a multi-point attachment for the
chain-fall hoists, allowing complete removal of the turbine. The trolley rail extensions A-frames allows for
turbine removal through the side of the enclosure. One end of each rail extension attaches to the inside
trolley rails: the other end to a floor-standing A-frame. The gas turbine is then removed through the
enclosure side and placed on a truck bed or cart.

Enclosure Engine Handling Equipment Modifications

This handling equipment provides additional braking mechanism to assist in engine removal for marine
applications. A Certificate of Compliance for load testing is included.

Sound Attenuation

The sound-attenuated enclosure is intended for use with suitable gas turbine air inlet and exhaust
silencing systems in environments where low noise levels are required. Enclosure ventilation openings are
equipped with silencers to achieve maximum sound attenuation. The actual achievable noise reduction is
a function of the noise source, installation considerations, other equipment in close proximity, and the
acoustical characteristics of existing buildings and barriers. Further information is available in Solar's
publication SPNP, "Noise Prediction Guidelines for Industrial Gas Turbines."

Exterior Connections

Connections for oil vent line, fire and gas suppression systems, and gas turbine air inlet and exhaust are
terminated outside the enclosure.

Fire and Gas Detection System

Enclosed packages must include a fire and gas control system. The fire and gas system provides gas
monitoring, fire detection, and extinguishing agent release using an advanced distributed architecture to
monitor gas, heat, and optical flame detectors. The system communicates with the Turbotronic control
system to initiate a shutdown if a fire or a high gas level is detected. On the package exterior, indicator
lights, strobe lights, and an alarm horn provide system status. A keyswitch is provided to inhibit the system
and a push button switch is provided to manually release the fire-extinguishing agent.

The primary fire detection system uses multispectrum infrared (MIR) detectors. The system includes an
automatic optical integrity feature to provide a continuous check of the optical surfaces, detector
sensitivity, electronic circuitry of the detector-controller system, and automatic fault identification with
digital display of system status in numerical code. The secondary detection system consists of rate-
compensated thermal detectors. The two detection systems act independently in detecting and reporting a
fire.

The fire system control panel provides system supervision (for open circuit, ground fault, or loss of
integrity), initiates alarm and release of fire suppression agent, and visual display of system status. The
suppression system agent release is activated automatically with release solenoids located on the fire
suppression skid. If a fire is detected, the fire detectors transmit an electrical signal to the fire system
control panel to activate the fire alarm and suppression system.

The enclosure is also equipped with two gas detectors: one at the gas turbine enclosure ventilation air
inlet and the other at the ventilation exhaust to provide continuous monitoring of combustible gases. The
detectors consist of IR hydrocarbon sensors that provide input to the logical operating network (LON)
module. The gas turbine start signal is interlocked with the combustible gas monitoring system to ensure
the atmosphere is safe prior to initiating a turbine engine start. An alarm is initiated if the gas monitor fails.

Dual Fan Ventilation, Stainless Steel

The enclosure is ventilated with a dual AC motor-driven fan system. The ventilation fan provides airflow to
ensure the enclosure internal air temperature remains within acceptable limits. Fan size can vary
depending on the ventilation system filtration configuration. The fan motor wiring is terminated at the motor
junction box. Openings are provided to ensure adequate airflow is circulated through the enclosure.

Hydrophobic Filtration, 316L Stainless

For driver only applications, an upgraded stainless steel filtration system is provided. Includes hydrophobic
filter elements to prevent moisture ingress into the enclosure. Standard features include:

• 1st stage Mist Eliminator


• 2nd stage Hydrophobic F8 filter elements
• Differential pressure transmitter
• Electrical components that comply with the selected area classification

Screen

Stainless steel screening is installed on the air filter's inlet area. Mesh and frame are 316L stainless steel.
The screen is attached to the filter-house door and does not need to be removed to service the filters. The
screening reduces clogging and premature filter replacement. During cold weather, screens should be
removed and stored to avoid clogging due to ice formation or snow buildup.

Two Limit Switches for Automatic Enclosure Dampers, Stainless Steel

Two position indication switches are added to standard enclosure isolation dampers to indicate open and
closed damper positions.

Standby DC Lights

A dedicated battery and inverter are added to operate the lights and provide emergency lighting in the
event of an AC power loss.

Door Open Alarm

The enclosure doors are equipped with a door position switch that will initiate an alarm when any
enclosure door is not closed securely.

CO2 Fire Extinguishant System

The enclosure is equipped with a CO2 fire extinguishant system consisting of a primary total flooding
distribution system and a supplemental metered distribution system to extend the design concentration of
37% CO2 for 20 minutes. The primary system is designed in accordance with the National Fire Protection
Association Standard 12. The CO2 cylinder storage temperature range is 0 °F (-18 °C) minimum to 130 °F
(54 °C) maximum.

On detection of fire, the detectors transmit an electrical signal via the fire control panel to activate the fire
extinguishant system release solenoids located on the fire suppression skid. On receipt of this signal, the
solenoid actuated control heads activate the discharge valves on the primary and extended extinguishing

2.11 MARINIZATION

General Description

The Taurus 70 unit may be operated in offshore oil and gas applications. Depending upon operating
conditions and movement of the underlying support structure, additional package modifications may be
required. Solar turbomachinery packages operate successfully on the following types of offshore
installations:

• Fixed Platform (FP)


• Tension Leg Platform (TLP)
• Compliant Tower (CT)
• Spar Platform (SP)
• Semi-submersible Platform (SSP)
• Floating Production Systems (FPS)
• Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO)
• Mini-Tension Leg Platform (Mini-TLP)

Applications are evaluated based on the expected motion severity and the degree of package mounting
surface flexing. Solar offers the following package modifications to achieve successful long-term
operation. Refer to Solar's Engineering Specification ES 2379 for additional information.

Severe Duty Marinization Modifications for Oil and Gas Process Duty, Parallel Orientation

The turbomachinery package includes modifications to facilitate operation in an Oil and Gas Process
application in the following maximum motion conditions when installed parallel to the vessel's axis:

• Dynamic angles, pitch: 7.5 degrees


• Dynamic angles, roll: 10 degrees
• Static angles, trim: 5 degrees
• Static angles, list: 8 degrees
• "G" force, max., operating: 0.75 g
• "G" force, max., survival: 1.0 g

Installed package "G" forces can act in any direction independently or in the vector sum of any two
directions simultaneously. Gravity is additional.

Standard ancillary equipment (inlet filters, silencers, ducting, flexible joints, exhaust silencers, ducting, and
expansion joints) are designed for up to 0.5g loads, higher than that require custom mounting
considerations.

A vessel's deck deflections for multi-point or three-point mounted packages, while experiencing maximum
operating "G" forces and independent of gimbal or AVM mounting options, must not exceed:

• Hogging and sagging: 0.38 mm per meter (0.0046 in. per ft) of mounted span, measured at
the midpoint of the span.
• Deck Twist: 0.02 degrees per meter (0.006 degrees per ft) of mounted span.

Package modifications include, but are not limited to:

• Oil tank baffles to limit oil sloshing.


• An additional oil tank vent located diametrically opposite to the standard vent connection
location to allow engine seal air to continuously evacuate the oil tank should one of the two
vents be blocked with sloshed oil.

• An inclinometer to shut down the machinery once the above maximum values of motion or
static inclinations have been reached. The alarm set points for pitch, roll and list and trim
axis are set at two degrees below the shutdown value.
• Turbine engine bearing oil scavenging system to evacuate the oil cavity of the turbine in
inclined planes when gravity draining has limited effect.

Package Sub-base

A separate, loose-shipped, three-point mount subframe is custom designed to support the driver and
driven frame assembly. The subframe may be shipped ahead of the turbomachinery package for fit-up at
site.

Anti-Vibration Mounts

Anti-vibration mounts (AVMs) are used to isolate the mounting surface from package-generated
vibrations. AVMs do not provide the same level of motion protection as gimbals. AVMs may be used for
three-point package mounting.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

Marinization

Solar will provide scope of engineering for marinization features required to drive a multi-body compressor
skid. Marinization features will allow this compressor set to operate in moderate or severe duty sea
motion conditions, assuming that the compressor set is mounted in a parallel orientation with the vessel's
longitudinal axis.

2.13 EXHAUST SYSTEM

An exhaust system is provided and designed to ensure a smooth transition from the gas turbine to the
heat recovery system (for CHP applications), or the exhaust silencer (for simple cycle applications). In
either case, proper considerations should be taken into account, which are dependent on the nature of
the installation.

Ideally, pressure losses should be as low a possible to provide for best possible turbine performance.
Typically, pressure losses will be on the order of 4 inches water column (w.c.) (102 mm w.c.) for a system
with a silencer, and on the order of 6 to 10 inches w.c. (152 to 254 mm w.c.) for a system with heat
recovery.

Exhaust system components supplied by Solar are designed to withstand a 120-mile per hour (193 km/hr)
wind load when properly installed.

Design Considerations:

• Avoid exhaust/ducting configurations that may lead to recirculation of exhaust products


through the gas turbine, such as through the turbine air inlet filter, enclosure ventilation inlet
filter.
• Avoid configurations where hot gas turbine exhaust products could impede performance of
the lube oil cooler.
• Where two (2) or more units exhaust into a common header, provisions must be made to
prevent hot gases from flowing into the non-operating unit. Note: This practice is not
recommended
• Capability to purge the complete exhaust system prior to light-off of the gas turbine. The
following minimum purge times are recommended:
• At least three (3) volume changes for simple cycle applications
• At least five (5) volume changes for applications with waste heat recovery equipment
• Relative height of the exhaust stack above the turbine air inlet
• Building roof design (if applicable)
• Direction, and intensity of prevailing winds, and proximity to adjacent structures

For simple cycle applications with exhaust silencer:

• Provisions must be made to adequately mount and support the equipment, and limit the
exhaust silencer pressure loss, with no loads transmitted to the turbine exhaust.

Scope Exclusion:
All system components described below are shipped loose, for installation by Others.

Exhaust System Scope: Custom System

A complete customized system is provided by one of Solar’s approved suppliers to meet the customer’s
requirements. All drawings are provided by the selected supplier and are separate from Solar’s
Mechanical Interface drawing. Engineering support is provided by the system supplier.

2.14 ACCESSORY EQUIPMENT

Battery Charger System, Nickel Cadmium

The battery charger system consists of a battery charger and batteries to provide 120 VDC power to the
control console, fuel valve, bleed valve and variable guide vane actuators, and the DC backup lube oil
pump. The control console 120 to 24 volt DC-to-DC converter provides 24 VDC power for the control
system. The battery charger system is designed for indoor installation in a nonhazardous area. The
batteries are mounted on a freestanding, four-step rack. The batteries are shipped wet, fully charged, and
ready for use.

Turbine Cleaning System, On-Line / On-Crank Cleaning System

The turbine compressor cleaning system facilitates periodic cleaning of the turbine compressor. The
system is designed for use in salt-laden or dusty environments or where compressor contamination from
hydrocarbon vapors is possible. The cleaning system includes a distribution manifold with pressure
atomizing spray nozzles in the engine air inlet collector, onskid piping, strainer, and solenoid shutoff
valves to deliver water or approved cleaning fluid to the manifold. The system requires an external source
of clean-filtered air to pressurize the cleaning solutions.

The on-crank cleaning system only operates at gas turbine cranking speed with the fuel system and
ignition system deactivated. The gas turbine cranking and cleaning solution activation can be initiated
from the control console or turbine control junction box.

The on-line cleaning system only operates when the gas turbine speed is between 90 and 100% gas
producer speed and with or without load. Cleaning solution activation can be initiated from the control
console or turbine control junction box. This system is intended to supplement the on-crank system by
increasing the time intervals between periodic on-crank cleaning.

2.15 QUALITY ASSURANCE AND TESTING

STANDARD TESTING PER SOLAR'S SPECIFICATIONS

Factory testing is in accordance with Solar's test specifications and as generally outlined below. The
purchaser or purchaser's designated representative is provided access to Solar's Production Test facilities
to observe factory production tests, remote observations are also available. Unavailability of the purchaser
or purchaser's representative will not be cause for delay in the production test schedule.

Test Facilities

Solar test facilities are designed to verify product requirements in accordance with internal product
specifications, which have been derived to meet or exceed industry standards unless otherwise noted.
The real time data acquisition system reads and records values from both facility and product
instrumentation which is then seamlessly integrated into the vibration, emission and performance
evaluation systems.

A facility human machine interface (HMI) provides the control and monitoring capabilities necessary to
operate the product at all applicable test points as defined by the acceptance test specification. The
system is used to establish specified test conditions, constants and operating limits. All test data is live
streamed to operators and test engineers in the control room. Any parameters that are outside of
specification limits are flagged and addressed. Test data is thoroughly reviewed by the cognizant test
engineer to be in accordance with all specification requirements. Data points are taken at specific
operating conditions in which oil, air, vibration, emission, and performance parameters are qualified.

Testing

Test Phases

Production test facilities are arranged to provide for a multi-phase test agenda. The first phase uses
simulation equipment to perform static testing of the controls and package systems to verify electrical and
fluid system continuity and calibration. The second phase consists of additional simulated systems tests of
the total package and preparation for installation and interconnection with the test facilities. In the final
phase, the unit is installed in the test facility where it is controlled and monitored by the contract controls
and the computerized test facility.

The turbine compressor set testing consists of individual testing of the turbine engine and the compressor
followed by a package test with the engine installed on the package.

Turbine Engine Acceptance Tests

The turbine engine is tested in accordance with Solar's test specifications on a facility test stand at
incremental speeds and loads up to and including full speed and power at facility ambient conditions to
verify system, vibration, emission, and performance design points. The turbine is loaded using a generator
or water brake dynamometer, which enables all aspects of turbine operation and performance to be
tested, including the following checks and adjustments:

• Bearing oil flows, pressures and temperatures


• Seal airflow and pressure
• Vibration levels and signature
• Turbine power and heat rate
• Emissions
• Turbine temperature measurement
• Adjustment of variable guide vanes and bleed valve

Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
Gas Compressor Acceptance Test

The gas compressor is tested in accordance with Solar's specifications and as generally outlined below.
Prior to assembly of the internal components, all compressor casings receive a hydrostatic pressure test,
limited to 30 minutes, per API 617.

Testing is conducted on dedicated test stands using a facility driver. The suction and discharge nozzles
are connected to an open loop configuration using atmospheric air. The test evaluates mechanical and
aerodynamic performance in accordance with test procedures and acceptance criteria as outlined in
applicable test specifications.

The mechanical testing is performed first. The gas and oil seals are tested statically with nitrogen. After
preliminary checks and static seal testing, the unit is operated at break-in, then maximum continuous
speed. Key mechanical parameters such seal airflow, oil flow and vibration levels are measured and
evaluated against established limits.

The aerodynamic performance test is conducted on completion of the mechanical test. The primary
objective of the test is to confirm the accuracy of the individual stage characteristics used for predicting
compressor aerodynamic performance at the air-equivalent design speed by comparing the overall head/
flow speed line from choke to surge and the surge line position against prediction when operating at a
speed equivalent to the site design speed. Surge points are determined at various speed points to validate
the surge flow estimate for the tested operating speeds. The compressor is instrumented to determine
volumetric flow and Isentropic Head. The mechanical and aerodynamic tests validate the compressor
integrity and expected field behavior.

Package Acceptance Tests

The basic package assembly, including the gas turbine and package-mounted accessories and controls,
are tested to ensure proper integration and function of the total driver package in accordance with Solar's
specifications. Results are recorded and provided on the Certified Test Report. The package acceptance
testing is typically run at idle without the driven equipment and generally includes the following:

• Starting and combustion cycles


• Lubricating oil system, temperature and pressure measurements
• Adjustment and calibration of the fuel control system
• Vibration measurement
• Testing of some malfunction and safety devices and circuitry
• Testing of control and logic circuitry

Items excluded from package testing are contract inlet and exhaust system ancillary equipment, such as
filters, silencers, ducting and associated support, battery systems, oil coolers, package enclosure and any
purchaser-furnished equipment.

Performance Review

Acceptance Test Data

Acceptance test data is reviewed and approved by Test Engineering then provided to Project
Management. The Certified Test Report is furnished approximately four weeks after completion of
acceptance testing. The report provides test results and compares the results to Solar's acceptance test
specification requirements by means of calculations, graphs, strip charts and descriptions.

Long term or short term preservation can be provided for the engine and package. The type of
preservation required dependents upon the following:

• Type of transportation (sea, air, or truck)


• Climatic conditions during transport and storage
• Storage period
• Storage facilities
• Static and dynamic loads imposed during shipment

Refer to Solar's Product Information Letter 097, "Package Preservation and Preparation for Shipment," for
additional guidelines.

Long-Term Preservation

This proposal is providing for long-term preservation. The following conditions require long-term package
preservation:

• Equipment will be stored in an unimproved storage area for greater than 6 months before
installation
• Transportation is by ship
• Transportation includes transshipment (package will go from truck to barge to truck, etc.,
e.g., rigorous loads will be encountered during shipment)
• Package will be exposed to severe weather conditions during transport

Site Requirements

Solar's gas turbine Compressor Sets require minimal site preparation. The Taurus 70 Compressor Set is
supplied with self-contained systems for starting, fuel, lube oil, and control, minimum piping and wiring
connections are required for installation. All service connections are conveniently located on the outer

Solar's document TPIM-1010 "Package Installation Guidelines - Compressor Sets and Mechanical Drives"
outlines the responsibilities of the Customer and Solar regarding installation of the package. It provides
guidelines for the installation of the standard package design and the interface with the driven equipment.

Mounting

Correct mounting of the gas turbine package is vital to successful package installation and requires
adequate preparation by the user. The site pad thickness is governed by soil condition and the weight of
the gas turbine package, air inlet system, and exhaust system. Mounting pad locations and loads will
differ with each package and will be clearly shown on the installation drawings. The equipment layout
should provide adequate floor space for major components with sufficient room around the package for
routine maintenance access.

Alignment Tooling, Quantity 1

Special tooling is provided for aligning the entire equipment train, including turbine engine, primary
gearbox, and gas compressor.

The tooling will include:

• Dial indicator kit

• Custom storage container

Order Fulfillment

Objective

Solar's objective is to fulfill orders efficiently and provide a comprehensive set of accurate project
documents in a timely manner. The order fulfillment timeline shown in the figure below illustrates the
major events through which a typical project will pass. Some events shown are internal to Solar, however,
all events are important in ensuring a successful project outcome.

Page 63
Solar Turbines YINSON PRODUCTION AS
Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set

Major Project Events

The following is a description of each event shown in the figure above, and the roles that are expected of
both Solar and our Customer:

• Receipt of Order is the official starting point of the project and is when Solar assigns a team of
technical experts to engineer and execute the project. The team is led by the Project Manager and Project
Engineer. They are the respective key commercial and technical contacts for the Customer.

• A Customer Teleconference is normally conducted within one week After Receipt of Order (ARO) and
is held between the Solar Team and the Customer to review the project requirements. This meeting
includes a review of the project timeline, key deliverables, and data required from both Solar and the
Customer. In addition, Solar and the Customer will mutually agree on the timing and location of the
Customer Kickoff meeting. The Document List, (Table 1), will be reviewed and document submittal dates
agreed upon. The document schedules within Table 1 are dependent on receipt of timely definition from
the Customer.

• The Customer Kickoff Meeting (CKOM) may be scheduled as early as four weeks after receipt of
order. Ideally, by this time, the appropriate technical and commercial customer representatives have been
assigned (e.g. Engineering & Procurement Contractor EPC, if applicable). Solar strongly recommends
that the Customer Kickoff meeting be held in San Diego, California so the resources of the entire Solar
project team can be utilized. The objective of this meeting is to resolve and finalize any open items related
to the Package Definition scope of supply. Package Definition covers everything directly associated with
the physical package.

During this meeting a review of the initial Mechanical Interface Drawing (MID) will be conducted. This
document contains package dimensions, external connection points, and other package details. Major
supplier OEM equipment, complex air inlet and exhaust systems, and custom features will not be
available until subsequent revision of the drawing.

• Customer Definition (Tollgate 1) is a major event that can only be passed after project definition is
complete and confirmed. Customer Definition should be provided within 1 week after the CKOM to
maintain the document commitment dates as shown in Table 1. Once complete definition is received from

Caterpillar Confidential: Do Not Disclose Without Solar's OG-AF23-64555


Approval
May 28, 2024
Page 64
Solar Turbines YINSON PRODUCTION AS
Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
the customer, the Solar project team incorporates the scope details, supplier OEM equipment definition
(as applicable) and customer definition into the documents and issues the next submittal of customer
documents for review. Delays in receiving Tollgate 1 project definition will cause delays in issuance of
customer documents. Changes to project scope and definition after Tollgate 1 could impact project cost
and schedule.

• Mechanical and Electrical Design Review Meetings are typically held two weeks after Solar issues
the Tollgate 1 document submittal packet to our customer. The exact timing depends on the readiness of
Solar, our customer, and on the overall project schedule. The purpose of these meetings is to confirm that
all customer requirements, including unit balance of plant items, have been captured accurately and are
acceptable to all parties. Timely completion of these review meetings is critical to ensuring that the
manufacturing phase remains on schedule.

• Customer Validation (Tollgate 2) occurs after the Design Review meetings and is based on the mutual
agreement that the project definition is complete and validated. If definition items are still open at this
point, passing Tollgate 2 may be delayed. Delays at this point in the project may have an impact on both
delivery and cost. Once Tollgate 2 has been passed, the design will be considered validated and firm.

Any subsequent scope changes after Tollgate 2 will potentially have a major impact on cost and delivery,
and require a Change Order.

Project Documentation

Electronic Document Control

Solar utilizes an Electronic Document Control system based on a collaborative workspace technology.
This collaborative workspace allows a single location for project documentation. Document transfers
between Solar, Customers, Major Suppliers, and Contractors occurs instantly through this workspace
area on the web. Documents are routed and tracked on a real time basis using email tasking and
notifications. This process provides immediate access and complete visibility of all project documentation
from the Kickoff all the way through to commissioning of the project. Users are provided with a user name,
password, and instructions on how to use the system. The Electronic Document Control operates on
standard Internet protocols and meets the highest Internet security standards.

Format

Documents are submitted electronically through Solar's collaborative workspace. Documents are
submitted in English, and in the Adobe PDF format. While Solar's documentation package provided in
Table 1 is considered comprehensive, Solar recognizes that some customers have additional
requirements. These additional requirements, can be quoted at additional cost and to an agreed upon
delivery schedule.

Customer Tollgate Definition Requirements

In order for the customer to receive timely documents as stated in Table 1, certain definition will be
required on a timely basis. The details of what type of definition are required and when, are dependent on
the type of project and the overall project schedule. During the course of the project Solar's Project
Manager and Project Engineer will communicate the definition requirements to the customer to insure that
the project remains on schedule. Delays in receipt of customer definition for a given project Tollgate will
cause delays in the issuance of documents and may also cause delays in overall project schedule.

Critical Documents

Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
The following documents, when provided, are considered critical and require timely review and input in
order to avoid delays on the project:

• Mechanical Interface Drawing requires timely review and re-issuance by the Customer.
• Unit Control Balance of Plant Drawing requires timely submittal of Customer P&IDs in order to
finalize this drawing.
• Anti-Surge Design requires timely submittal of Customer P&IDs and piping volumes in order to
finalize this drawing.
• OEM Supplier Documents are required by Solar in order to maintain the schedule shown in
Table 1. Complete definition on the OEM driven equipment, electric motor, gearbox and shaft
end details, including an accurate CAD/dxf model of the OEM equipment offered, is required.

Final Documents (As-Shipped)

The final documents are issued as stated in Table 1. These final documents capture the design or
configuration of the project as it leaves Solar's factory, and are commonly referred to as the As-Shipped
documents. Solar considers our documentation commitments to have been fully met when our customer
has received the final documents listed in Table 1.

Installation & Commissioning

During the Installation & Commissioning phase of the project, Solar's field service personnel may mark-up
one or more of Solar's "As-Shipped" drawings to reflect any material changes in the design or
configuration of the equipment in connection with installation. Solar will issue an As-Installed version of
these drawings in order to capture the field mark-ups. These As-Installed drawings will be available 12
weeks after receipt of marked-up drawings in San Diego, California. As a safety check, Solar also requires
the updated field software to make sure that all documents are synchronized. Drawing revisions that are
necessitated by changes in scope that are either requested by the customer or required due to
unexpected site conditions will be evaluated on a case by case basis and may require additional time
and/or involve additional cost to the customer.

Customer Approval of Documents

As defined in the project execution timeline above, project definition is considered complete following the
passing of Tollgate 1 and the documents will reflect the design agreed to at that time. The design will
proceed based on this definition without further approval of the documents by the customer.

Warnings
ES9-98 Compliance
Strict compliance with Solar specification ES 9-98 regarding air, water, fuel filtration and handling is required. Contamination allowed to enter the engine
impacts performance, accelerates degradation, and puts the unit at risk. Reference PIL 162 for fuel handling guidelines.

Fuel Superheat Requirements


The minimum fuel supply temperature (MFST) must be the largest value of the following:
• 50°F above NGL dew point
• 20°F above H2O dew point
• 130°F for Titan 250 SoLoNOx (see ES9-98)
• -20°F for a standard Solar package
• For geographic regions at risk for elemental sulfur, heating to 130°F, or at minimum provisioning for such heating, is strongly recommended.
See ES9-98 and PIL246 for guidance.
If fuel heating is not required based on this GFS run, it is highly recommended to provision space and capacity for future installation of a fuel gas heater
should issues arise.
If the surrounding temperature is less than the minimum supply temperature, the customer must pre-heat the supply line to ensure liquids do not form
in the gas, particularly when the line is not flowing. A liquid trap with a drain is required at the skid inlet. Lines should be pitched away from the skid.
The skid inlet piping must be heated by one or more of the following methods:
• Heat tracing and/or insulating supply lines (CF 42306)
• Recirculating or venting hot gas in the supply line prior to starting (CF 43304)
• Locate flowing hot gas supply line next to Solar skid
• Heat entire area

3.3 GAS FUEL PRESSURE AND FLOW

The following curve represents the minimum pressure requirements at Solar's skid edge based on the
component analysis referenced in the previous section; and on the ambient and performance conditions
specified on the chart below.

Ambient temperature range for T1 is subject to the rating of the supplied equipment.

Package Gas Fuel System Rating:

• Maximum supply pressure 500 psig (3450 kPag)

Gas fuel must be supplied between the minimum pressure (prescribed by the Minimum Fuel Pressure
Curve) and the maximum rating of the fuel system.

Important Consideration:
If the actual operating pressure approaches the maximum rating, appropriate margin for relief valve
setting needs to be considered.

Note:
The above skid edge pressure requirement curve is current as of the date of this proposal. Over time
however, the requirements may change. As a buffer (and as indicated in the notes on the chart above),
Solar has included margin in the requirement including a 15 psid across the gas fuel filter, and 10%
additional fuel flow.

Prior to negotiating a fuel supply contract with your gas utility, or specifying a fuel gas compressor (if not
supplied by Solar), we recommend you re-confirm the skid edge pressure requirements above.

Notes:
(E) Fuel pressure and flow requirements can be affected by several factors such as; fuel temperature, fuel lower heating
value, air inlet temperature, fuel composition, fuel specific gravity, engine injector type, inlet duct loss, relative humidity, site
elevation, and piping length and diameter. Minimum fuel pressure and maximum flow requirements at full load operation are
stated based on available site conditions. If actual site conditions are different, the stated values will change too. Please
contact Solar Turbines for corrected site-specific fuel pressure and flow requirements.
(F) Fuel must have a differential temperature (ΔT) of at least 50°F (28°C) above fuel dew point temperature and be between
–40 to 200°F (–40 to 93 °C).
(H) Fuel consumption figures provided herein are for the purposes of fuel supply line sizing. It is not intended to be a
guaranteed figure.
(S) Fuel flow rate is based on full load and acceleration requirement for the turbine. This flow rate is higher than performance
full load that is considered steady state.
(AE) Any gas turbine fuels that do not meet Solar specification ES9-98 can have an impact on engine performance and
operating life.

4.1.5 NOISE

This package is offered with an acoustical enclosure designed to maximize noise reduction. The A-
weighted sound level at full load operation, when installed in a free field, is estimated to meet an average
of 85 dBA at 1 m (3 ft) from the package enclosure and at a height of 1.5 m (5 ft) above the bottom of the
skid. This sound level is measured at points spaced typically 1.5-3.0 m (5-10 ft) apart on each side of the
enclosure, and at one position on each end of the enclosure on the longitudinal axis.

These sound levels are exclusive of piping, other equipment, reflected sound, or other contributing site
conditions.

Scope Exclusion:
The gap between the bottom of the skid and the mounting surface must be sealed with a non-
hardening caulk. This activity is performed by Others.

Scope Clarification:
When enclosed packages are installed on elevated mounts, such as anti-vibration mounts, the gap
between the bottom of the skid and the mounting surface is typically between 305-355 mm (12-14 in),
which is too large to seal by caulking. In such cases, 85 dBA can only be obtained through the use of
skirts that extend from the bottom of the skid to the mounting surface. Skirts are not included in the
base proposal.

Please reference Product Information Letter (PIL) 058 in the Appendix for additional information
describing Solar's guidance on sound levels for turbomachinery packages.

Solar's Noise Prediction: Guidelines for Industrial Gas Turbines handbook is available via
www.solarturbines.com, and provides an in-depth reference to:

• Noise Criteria
• Noise Sources
• Physical Properties of Sound
• Noise Data
• Sample Calculations, and

5.1 GENERAL COMMENTS

Per the Customer's Request for Quotation, the specifications and data sheets have not
been reviewed as applicable to this product. Refer to this technical proposal dated for our
current product offer.

Solar has proposed its standard equipment. The offered equipment will be designed,
manufactured, and purchased to Solar’s Engineering Specifications. Solar packages are proven
designs that use pre-qualified components with demonstrated performance.

Solar, therefore, takes general exception to the specifications and cannot guarantee compliance
with any applicable requirements. Should Yinson have specific concerns, Solar would be more
than happy to discuss.

5.2 API 616 COMMENTS AND EXCEPTIONS

Solar comment to API 616 Fifth Edition

Paragraph #

Caterpillar Confidential Green: Information contained herein is to be


treated as Confidential and Proprietary to Caterpillar.
Following are Solar’s comments and exceptions to API Standard 616, Fifth
Edition, January 2011 with regard to Solar Taurus 70 gas turbine engine
Compressor Set Packages.
1 Scope .
1.1 General Comments to this standard represent Solar’s standard gas turbine package
design. A detailed equipment description and scope of supply are described in
Solar’s proposal (normally section 2). In case of conflict between these
comments and Solar’s offer, Solar’s equipment description shall take
precedence. Where there is reference made to optional items in these
comments, section 2 of the offer will confirm their inclusion or exclusion.

Note: API requires that paragraphs in this standard preceded by a bullet (●)
require either a decision or information by the purchaser. Comments to these
paragraphs are provided only if the purchaser has deemed these paragraphs
applicable and sufficient information from the purchaser has been received or
where Solar can comment without purchaser input.
1.2 Alternative Solar’s offering is based on evolution of package design through experience
Designs gained from 13,000 package installations in more than 90 countries. The
design has been optimized for production operation (non-refinery usage) and/or
installation in remote areas of the world. Therefore, Solar’s package design
results in some deviation from the refinery service specific requirements for
which this specification is written.

4.1.7 Unavailability of AC-power during the post-lube sequence will prevent slow-roll
cool-down of gas producer and may force a prolonged shutdown period.

4.1.11 A cooling water system or systems are not part of Solar's scope of supply
unless detailed otherwise in this proposal.
4.1.13 The package piping and auxiliaries arrangement is pre-designed. Adequate
clearance areas and safe access for operation and maintenance have been
designed into the package. The arrangement on the package skid can be
presented during the project kickoff meeting.
4.1.16 Hot section components may, but compressor components cannot be replaced
at site.
4.2.3 Engines are designed for no leakage at flange joints.
●4.2.7.1 Details of threading in the pressure casing conform to ANSI B1.1.
4.2.7.3 Solar permit socket head cap screws where space is limited to provide
adequate tool clearance.
4.2.8 Complete inspection of all rotating components cannot be performed.
Inspection access is provided in support of Solar's boroscope inspection
instructions.

Direct visual inspection of the last-stage turbine blading requires separation of


the exhaust duct. The Taurus 70 has compressor boroscope access through
the air inlet and boroscope ports at stage 5, stage 7 (with the removal of the air
bleed flange), stage 11 and the diffuser.

Marking of inspection ports is not provided.


4.2.9 When jackscrews are used on pressure casing flanges, typically they are
provided with either a chamfer ground on the end of the screw to reduce upset
diameter or the jackscrew threaded hole is counter bored.
4.2.10 All Solar gas turbines are factory tested to maximum continuous speed and
100% load. Engines can be trim balanced in the field without removing major
components. Solar uses the coupling, if required, to trim the power turbine.
4.2.12 Solar provides jackscrews for vertical alignment where needed. Solar dowels
only the fixed equipment, such as RGB for gensets, or first compressor in
CS/MDs.
4.3 Combustors .
and Fuel
Nozzles

4.3.1 The single combustor is provided with a single igniter system. Dual ignition is
not available.
4.3.2 Temperature sensors are located at the inlet to the first power turbine stator.
The control system monitors if the individual Thermocouple (TC) reading is 200
deg F lower than T5-average. If so, then the following alarm and shutdown logic
has been implemented:

1TC -alarm, 3TC-shutdown


4.3.3 If injectors are randomly replaced with injectors of the same part number then
no field adjustment is required. Where Solar require the replacement of the
complete set, some field set up of SoLoNOx units may be necessary.

Dependant on the composition of the liquid fuel, and on dual fuel engines, the
number of fuel transfers, the injector may need cleaning or replacement at
intervals less than the normal engine service interval.

4.3.5 This requirement is not applicable to Solar products. Solar uses an auxiliary
torch system that does not have an igniter in the primary combustion zone.
4.3.7 All fuel compositions require review by Solar. The standard Wobbe Index range
is defined in Solar's Engineering specification ES9-98. Solar will evaluate
maximum allowable rate of change of the Wobbe Index based on the
purchaser's information on rate of change and fuel composition.
4.4 Casing .
Connections
4.4.1 In addition to flanged engine casing connections, Solar uses fittings per SAE
J514 located in taper threaded holes per ANSI B1.20.1, SAE J476, ANSI
B1.20.3 or in straight threaded holes with “O” ring bosses per ANSI B1.1, SAE
J514. Solar also uses SAE 4-Bolt flanges per SAE J518 and V-clamp
connections. Machined and studded connections are not used on these engine
casings.
4.4.3 In place of piping connections to the engines, tube fittings per SAE J514 and
SAE 4-bolt flanges per SAE J518 are used.
4.4.3.4 Tapped openings and bosses for pipe threads conform to SAE J514.
●4.4.3.4.1 Solar comply to ASME B1.20.1.
4.4.4 Tapped openings, not connected to plumbing or engine mounted equipment,
are plugged with fittings per SAE J514 (threads per ASA B2.2).
4.4.5 The compressor-diffuser/combustor housing has a variety of flange connections
including but not limited to fuel nozzles, service connections (air, oil etc.), and
bleed air. Primarily because of space constraints, the fuel nozzle flanges do not
comply to ASME flange dimensions. This applies also to other casings, e.g. the
turbine housing.

Similarly, for some engine models the flange connections for the external bleed
air and service connections at the engine casing are not per ASME B16.5. Non-
ASME B16.5 flanges and bolted joints are engineered per Solar's mechanical
design engineering bolted joint design practices. Some instrumentation
connections are taper pipe threads and certain special instrumentation (e.g.
thermocouple probes) is neither tapered pipe nor SAE J514.

All flanged customer connections at the skidedge of the package are per ASME
B16.5.
●4.4.5.1 See comment in section 4.4.5.
4.4.5.2 In no instance do Solar engines have flanges that are larger than required per
ASME.
4.4.5.3 See comments to paragraph 4.4.5. Since the purchaser does not directly
connect to flanges at engine casing no purchaser approval is required. All
flanged connections at the skid edge for purchaser's use are to ASME B16.5.
●4.4.6 Machined and studded connections are not used on these engine casings.

Solar comment to API 616 Fifth Edition

4.5.1.4 The “freedom from surface discontinuity for a minimum of one probe-tip
diameter on each side of the probe” is violated on 2 of the Taurus70 five
bearing positions:

The violation is on one probe side only of the Taurus 70 #3 and #5 bearing
yielding a .87probe tip diameter at the #3 position and a one-half (½) probe tip
diameter at the #5 position.

For Taurus 70, the #5 bearing probe target is a 0.450" thick sleeve and is of
sufficient thickness to eliminate any signal or distortion at the sleeve-shaft
interface.

The one-half (½) probe tip diameter is in compliance with the probe
manufacturer's guide line requiring a minimum of 0.150". A one-half probe tip
diameter is 0.157"

4.5.2 Rotors .
4.5.2.2 The overspeed will cause an immediate shutdown but damage to the power
turbine could result. Speeds beyond 120% operation would require detail disk
and blade inspection, physical dimensional checks, and checks for cracks.
4.5.3 Disk and .
Blading
4.5.3.1 Rubbing is expected on first- and second-stage turbine blade tips during the
factory test. Occasional compressor blade tip rubs are also routine.

4.5.3.2 Solar does not normally advise of blade resonant speeds below the operating
range.
4.6 Seals .
4.7 DYNAMICS .

4.7.1 General .

4.7.1.1 Solar can accommodate critical speed analysis from 0 to 150% NGP and
provide bode plots at prox probe locations if required.

Solar does not create bode plots at closed clearance locations.


4.7.1.2 I) Solar does not take boundary-layer flow separation into consideration.
4.7.1.3 Solar takes exception to applying a specified speed range or separation margin
to structural resonant frequencies.
4.7.1.5 Torsional analysis is used to identify interferences. Where interferences occur
Solar will validate that the stresses are not a concern. Solar will supply rotor
lateral critical speeds and system torsional critical speed, but not blade and
vane resonant modes. Torsional and lateral analyses are provided if indicated
so in this proposal.
4.7.2 Lateral .
Analysis
4.7.2.1 A lateral analysis is provided when specified by the customer, or if indicated so
in this proposal.
4.7.2.2 Refer to Solar's comments to 6.3.4.3.3 and subparagraphs of 4.7.2.15.

4.7.2.4 A damped unbalanced response analysis is provided when required and


indicated in this proposal. When a damped unbalanced response analysis is
offered, Solar complies with these requirements as follows:
b) and c) are not standard but can be requested in the area of asymmetric
loading on bearing. Asymmetric bearing loads only affect bearing #1.
e) Based on Solar’s experience with our product the structural stiffness is not
required for rotordynamic evaluation. Some excitation frequencies are present
in generator sets and Solar design has accommodated these.
g) In our experience the seal have negligible effect on unbalance response.
h) Solar reports the major amplitude and phase only
4.7.2.7.1 As a standard Solar does not evaluate the mode to 150% NGP.
4.7.2.7.2 Solar places unbalance weights in locations to create maximum synchronous
response amplitudes.
4.7.2.8 a) Solar supplies identification of each critical speed up to 125%.
c) Solar complies except we do not include seals in the deflected rotor shape.
d) Solar only supplies absolute shaft motion relative to a rigid bearing support
assumption.
4.7.2.10 b) Solar does not use the SM equation (3) shown. Only the first mode may have
an AF of more than 2.5 and it is located well outside the separation margin
range.

c) Existing Solar gas turbines may not comply with the SM equation (4).
However, in Solar's experience, this has not been found to be detrimental to
reliable engine operation.
4.7.2.11 Solar does not apply this design criteria.
4.7.2.12 Solar does not apply this design criteria. Most seals are designed to be
abradable. Clearances are set by design tolerances.
4.7.2.14 a) Solar provides bearing stiffness and damping coefficients.
b) Solar provides the weight, polar and transverse moments of inertia of all
major parts.
4.7.2.15 .
Unbalance Rotor
Response
Verification Test

4.7.2.15.1 Solar uses its own design verification test criteria per engineering instruction.

a) Solar verifies from zero to maximum continuous engine speed.


c) Solar does not apply correction factor.

4.7.2.15.2 a) Solar does modify the model to minimize the critical speed gap.
b) Solar takes exception. The predicted peak response amplitude may be less
than test values.
4.7.2.15.3 Solar takes exception to absolute vibration measurements.
4.7.2.15.4 Refer to comments on section 4.7.2.11
4.7.2.15.5 Refer to comments on section 4.7.2.12.
4.7.2.16.1 Solar does not apply the modified Alford's equation. Solar's experience shows
negligible effect of the destabilizing forces calculated by using Alford's equation.
4.7.2.16.2 Solar takes exception to the Level I stability analysis.
4.7.2.16.3 Solar uses nominal oil temperature, rather than extreme values.

4.7.2.16.6 Solar takes exception to this requirement. See comment for 4.7.2.16.1 and
4.7.2.16.5.
4.7.2.16.7 Solar takes exception to this requirement. See comment for 4.7.2.16.6.
4.7.2.16.8 Stability plots include first four modes on one plot. The stability plot also
includes log dec values. We provide one plot for min and one for max
clearances.

Solar does not provide log dec vs. cross-coupling plots. Refer to comments for
4.7.2.16.7.
4.7.3 Torsional .
Analysis

●4.7.3.1 A torsional analysis report is provided if indicated so in this proposal.


4.7.3.2 Only excitations from significant sources are considered. This does not
necessarily include all sources listed in this paragraph.
4.7.3.3 The torsional analysis will include the complete drive system. This analysis
may show torsional resonance within 10% of possible excitation frequency. In
this case Solar will further analyze the system to determine the acceptability of
the system as purchased. If in Solar’s judgment the system is operable without
making changes, these resonant frequencies are acceptable. If they are not
acceptable, changes to the system must be agreed upon between the
purchaser and Solar.
4.7.3.4 See comment to paragraph 4.7.3.3
4.7.3.5 Solar makes no attempt to remove the critical from within the limiting frequency,
but goes straight to the stress analysis.
4.7.3.6 A transient torsional analysis is not offered.
4.7.4 .
BALANCING
4.7.4.1 b): Solar takes exception. In general, Solar relies on component balance and
Introduction assembly runout control and balance to achieve acceptable vibration
(Refer to ISO performance. Solar does not perform high speed balance in the shop but
19499) provides opportunity for trim balance during engine acceptance test.

d & e) Customers are invited to witness balance operations for their rotors in
Solar's shop; however, balancing procedures are proprietary and are therefore
not published for distribution to the customer.
4.7.4.2 Low- .
Speed Balancing

4.7.4.2.2 Solar takes exception to this requirement. In Solar's experience, Grade 2.5 is
adequate to achieve good results.
4.7.4.2.3 Solar takes exception to this requirement. In Solar's experience, Grade 2.5 is
adequate to achieve good results.
4.7.4.2.4 Solar takes exception. Solar generally targets ISO standard 1940, Grade 2.5
balance tolerances (suitable for high-speed turbomachinery). Experience has
shown reliable machinery performance in this range. For some models, slightly
lower balance tolerances have been established.

4.10 Materials .

4.10.1 General .

4.10.1.3 Due to the high level of material requirements for the manufacture of gas
turbine engines, Solar has developed its own specifications including test and
inspections in accordance with the ASTM, AMS, and MIL specifications
depending on the material and application.

The production system in place at Solar does not permit special testing and
inspection of material by the purchaser, unless otherwise specifically agreed in
advance of order.
4.10.1.6 Solar has a harsh environment policy, i.e., sulfur content of all fluids ingested by
an engine should be 1 wt.% or less per ES 9-98 (Solar Fuel, Air and Water
Specification).
4.10.1.10 Galvanic corrosion prevention is always one of the material selection guidelines
commonly used at Solar, especially for fasteners and other mating components.
Solar does use NACE Corrosion Engineer’s Reference Book as one of the
guidelines for selection of suitable materials in these situations.
4.10.1.11 All welding procedures are listed in Solar’s specification ES 9-56, which is
based on the requirements of ASME Pressure Vessel Code, Sections VII and
IX.
4.10.1.12 Solar complies where structural integrity requires it, for example lifting
bollards/gussets, package lift kits, and engine handling kits. When required ,
materials are tested and/or substituted.
4.10.1.13 High grade ASTM A193 bolts are the most popular bolts used at Solar. Low
grade ASTM A307 bolts are rarely used. Solar does not use case-hardened
carbon steel bolts. We only use case-hardened Nitralloy 135M bolts for a limited
number of applications.
4.10.1.14 Positive material identification is not offered.
4.10.1.15 Specific nondestructive examination requirements are to be clearly outlined by
the purchaser. Certain forms of NDE cannot be offered.
4.10.2 Castings .

4.10.2.3 Solar routinely perform steel casting repairs by welding or plugging. The repairs
are in accordance with Solar weld repair specifications and are not subject to
purchaser approval.
4.10.2.3.1 Postweld heat treatment, such as stress relief and postweld temper, is given in
applicable Solar engineering drawings and weld specifications.
4.10.2.5 Nodular iron castings are produced in accordance with Solar’s specifications.
They may be used as cast or annealed depending on the requirements of the
application.
4.10.2.5.1 Solar does not routinely perform Charpy V-notch testing.
4.10.2.5.2 Solar developed its own cast iron specification ES 9-297 that cross-references
to both ASTM A247 and ASTM A-395. All requirements on tensile strength,
hardness, and microscopic examination are defined in Solar ES 9-297, and are
in accordance with ASTM A247 and ASTM A-395.

with the exception of Compressor Rotors which are Electron Beam welded in
accordance with various ASME, ASTM, AWS, and AMS specifications (refer to
Solar ES9-506, ES9-77, and ES9-64). The only requirement of the ASME Code
that is not required for Compressor Rotor EB weldments is bend testing.

Solar routinely conduct weld repairs on rotating parts and other highly stressed
parts in accordance with Solar’s engineering specification ES9-56, which is not
subject to purchaser approval.
4.10.4.3 Solar will comply where structural integrity is required.
4.10.4.6 Solar pressure containing casings weld joint design, post weld heat treatment,
non-destructive testing and pressure testing conform to ASME code
requirements to the extent defined in Solar’s welding specification ES 9-56.

4.10.4.6.1 Solar does not perform radiographic, magnetic particle or liquid-penetrant


inspections of all welds.
4.10.4.7.5 For the heat treatment of the welds, Solar uses its own spec ES 9-56 which
cross-references to Section VIII, Division 1 of the ASME Code.
4.10.5 Impact Solar complies where structural integrity requires it, for example lifting
Test bollards/gussets, package lift kits, and engine handling kits. When required ,
Requirements materials are tested and/or substituted. Other components are not V-notch-
tested.

4.4.7 It may be necessary to operate at reduced speeds when run on air due to
discharge temperature limitations.

4.5.1.6 Solar compressors are used in “upstream applications” such as production,


gathering, processing, compression for well head, gas lift, injection/ reinjection,
and boosting, as well as in “midstream applications” such as gas transmission,
storage/withdrawal, tail gas recompression and local distribution.
Solar compressors are manufactured to meet the requirements of “NACE-MRO-
175, ISO 15156-1, ISO 15156-2, ISO 15156-3”. This specification is intended
specifically for equipment used in “The Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries for
Use in H2S Containing Environments in Oil and Gas Production”. The
compressor does not meet the requirements of NACE-MRO-103, which is
specifically intended for equipment in refinery service.

4.5.1.11 In general Solar compressors, as a standard use materials that meet the
hardness and yield strength limitations of this paragraph. There are two
compressor components that are made of Inconel “dowel pins” of Inconel X-750
(Rc35) and tie-bolt of Inconel 718 (Rc40). Both of these components are nickel-
based alloys (both meet requirements of NACE- MRO-175) that have a much
greater resistance to the effects of hydrogen than do iron based materials such
as steel or stainless steel.
Solar compressor applications do not, normally include applications with high
hydrogen levels of 90 molar percent or partial pressure of hydrogen above 100
PSIG. Solar will review all materials with the purchaser for acceptance or
replacement with materials acceptable to the purchaser at time of order.

4.5.1.18 PMI testing is available for an additional charge.

4.5.1.19 This section 4.5.1.19 (all) applies only to compressors that are in low
temperature service. Solar does not offer compressors in low temperature
service. Solar compressors are designed for operating at temperatures above -
20 degrees F. and storage/transport temperatures above -65 degrees F.
Solar does not Charpy-v-Notch impact test as a standard practice. Impact testing
is available for an additional charge, and additional lead time.

4.5.2.5 (-1 thru -5) Solar compressors use ASTM A 395 material for internal components such as
diaphragms: these components are not pressure containing parts.
The first article inspection of each new cast part is destructively tested to insure
that the casting procedures are correct, all physical properties are met, and this
includes casting the keel block, impact testing, tensile strength, and chemical
analysis.
After the first article successful inspection by Solar, proving the foundry
procedures, follow on articles are (NDT) inspected at the foundry.
Keel blocks are cast. Tensile strength, hardness, and impact testing are not
conducted.

4.6.1.7.2 Cap-screws are used on all service connections (with the exception of process
flanges). End caps are secured with shear rings that are held in place with cap
screws.

4.6.2.1 The inspection after repairs is by liquid penetrant method.

4.6.2.2 Solar’s supply chain management specifies that all major repairs to be completed
before heat treat at the foundry and therefore it is not be practical to notify the

purchaser and receive their approval to perform the necessary casting repair with
the normal time restraints of an active project. For this reason it is necessary to
make any purchaser foundry interface arrangements by prior agreement at time
of order. Inspection for defects is in accordance with Solar engineering
specification ES9-290, table 1.

4.6.2.3,b The compressor casing (center body) at the stage of rough machined to a few
millimeters of final has been inspected and repaired and inspected again, ready
for final machining. After final machining again inspected and if indications are
found, there is a repair procedure to repair and inspect before proceeding to
hydro test and to build.

4.6.3.2 Solar ANSI flanges conform to ANSI B16.5. Solar SAE flanges comply with SAE
J518 (the mating piece complies with ANSI B31.1).

4.6.3.2.1 Spot radiography inspection is not performed.

4.6.3.3 Cast steel casings may be inspected by either liquid penetrant, magnetic particle,
or ultrasonic.

4.6.4.1.1 Balance piston line connections and compressor drains are machined (not
studded) and use cap screws to secure the flanges.
Compressor case pressure rating is at rated temperature, for applications with
discharge temperatures above 200 degrees F. it is reduced to match the
discharge flange rating corresponding to the maximum discharge temperature for
the application.

4.6.4.1.3 Auxiliary connections may be ANSI, NPT, SAE J518, or SAE J514.

4.6.4.1.6 Solar compressors are provided with casing drains on suction and discharge
sections only.

4.6.4.1.7 Balance piston cavity and individual stage drains are not provided. Solar has
more than 6000 compressors installed in upstream and midstream applications
(pipeline, gas lift, gas injection, gas plant recompression, and storage) and have
not found the need for balance piston or stage drains.

4.6.4.2 The main connections on several Solar compressor models are machined;
however they are not provided with studs.

4.6.4.2.2 Flanges conforming to ASME B 16.47 are series “A”. Series “B” are not available.

4.6.4.3.3 Solar provides butt welded piping to all auxiliary flanged connections. Socket
weld flanges are not provided.

4.6.4.3.4 Auxiliary connections include tube fittings and SAE J518 connections; also see
comment to 4.6.4.3.3

4.6.4.3.5 Solar does not provide pipe nipples welded to the casing.

Type Approval Certifications


All current gas turbine engine production models, excluding Taurus 65 and Mercury 50, have been type
certified to DNV-GL rules for offshore / marine applications and several to American Bureau of Shipping
(ABS) rules governing offshore / marine applications. Type approvals are renewed on a five-year basis. In
the interim, between renewals, major design changes are submitted to each independent Class Society
and the type certifications are amended as necessary.

Order Execution

Process Based Approach


The SBMS follows the Prevent, Control and Correct methodology. The SBMS processes are founded on
ISO standards and are enabled through cross functional collaboration.

Customer Requirements and Specifications


Solar reviews customer specifications during the bid process, if submitted with the Request for Quotation
(RFQ), and identifies the extent of compliance with the specifications and scope of supply requirements in
a proposal. The proposal may include comments and exceptions to the project requirements for both
technical and commercial scope. Aftermarket project quotations (Package Refurbishment and Upgrades,
Retrofits, etc.) are normally limited to previously engineered Solar designed equipment, and customer

May 28, 2024
Page 146
Solar Turbines YINSON PRODUCTION AS
Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
specifications are not typically included in the RFQ. Prior to contract execution, Solar and the Customer
reach a final agreement on the project scope and requirements, including the need for special
certifications in addition to those referenced in the next section.

For new production, the project scope and specification requirements are translated to a Solar internal
working document referred to as the Project Application Check Sheet (ACS). From the ACS, other
working documents are generated such as Bills of Material, Project Drawings, and an Inspection and Test
Plan (ITP). The ITP defines inspection and testing requirements, including the level of Customer, or third
party, involvement in the inspection process. The ITP is a critical document since it is the definitive project
Quality Assurance guideline, and is the method by which project inspection, testing, and quality
assurance documentation requirements are communicated to the Customer, suppliers, and internal
departments responsible for project execution. A Quality Control (QC) folder is created for each unit
manufactured. During the manufacturing process, the QC folder is the central repository of quality related
documentation for all assembly and test operations, as specified on the ITP. Specified documents, as
identified in the ITP, are transferred to the Project Quality Assurance (QA) Data Book and become a
Customer record.

For after-market products and services, all inquiries are reviewed by the Customer Service Account
Manager and translated into a proposal that provides the technical scope of supply for Solar and the
Customer, and the commercial Terms and Conditions in response to the Customer requirements.

Customer defined requirements are transferred to internal working documents and systems to completely
define the technical scope of the order to be executed. Additionally, the inspection and testing
requirements are documented, including the level of Customer, or third party, involvement required in the
inspection process.

Industry and Statutory Codes, Standards and Specifications


As a leading supplier of turbomachinery systems to the oil and gas, industrial power generation and
marine markets, Solar recognizes the unique needs of its diverse customer base. Solar ensures that its
products and services comply with local and international industry and statutory codes and standards.

In addition to codes / standards (industry, regulatory and statutory) and Customer specifications, Solar
also complies with a comprehensive set of internal standards such as Solar Engineering Specifications
(ES), Quality Assurance Standards (QAS), and Manufacturing Process Specifications (MPS). These
documents include engineering, processing, assembly and testing requirements.

Project Management
Project Management provides overall technical and commercial leadership to ensure superior
performance by all functions in achieving Customer satisfaction. The specific milestones of each project to
be managed can vary, but each project will start with kick-off meeting(s) to ensure a strong handover from
the Sales teams to the execution teams. The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring that all
customer required milestones and documentation requirements are completed and communicated as
required.

Engineering
Engineering functions translate the customer requirements into a set of engineering documentation that
define the mechanical arrangement, the electrical control system configuration, the instrumentation and
the hydromechanical systems arrangement of the equipment. The design, manufacturing, and testing
requirements for standard products have been established utilizing Engineering Specifications or
Overhaul Inspection and Repair Standards (OHIS and OHRS). Non-standard Customer requirements
such as special materials, testing, or other features may impact product cost and delivery.

Engineering definition is controlled and available throughout the manufacturing and testing processes.
Only authorized personnel are allowed to make changes to engineering definition, through a controlled
changed process.

Planning / Procurement
Planning functions schedule the procurement and distribution of material through production or
distribution warehouses in a timely manner using a material resource planning process contained within
the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. Stocking strategies (supermarkets, supplier surveillance
and predetermined reorder points) are utilized to ensure on-time part availability. Any special quality
assurance requirements for out-sourced components are identified in the purchase order. Project
scheduling systems inform the organization of the timeline for execution of the major activities for the
order from engineering to Customer delivery.

Where nonstandard operations are required, part number modification may be necessary. Special
material lots shall be maintained to keep unique material out of the standard material flow. These special
requirements are considered in the bid cycle.

Manufacturing - Assembly
Solar manufactures and remanufactures components in many of their worldwide facilities.

Sub-assemblies are comprised of purchased and manufactured or remanufactured components. The


assembly work instructions and key characteristics are recorded in accordance with business area
procedures. Remanufactured components are not utilized for new equipment orders.

The commencement of final product assembly is defined in a scheduling system. Electrical, mechanical
and hydro-mechanical systems drawings are compiled. Required engineering definition is compiled to be
available for production. Parts are scheduled to be withdrawn from the warehouse to support
manufacturing sequence. Sub-assembly and final assembly activities are executed per engineering and
customer order definition.

Manufacturing - Test
Testing and verification occurs throughout the manufacturing process. Subassemblies (turbine nozzles,
combustor liners, turbine cases, fuel manifolds, injectors, rotor blades, starters, pumps, compressor
cases, etc.) have individual component and subassembly tests. When these subassemblies are
assembled into a final product, additional tests are performed to validate that the product is functioning as
intended.

Control consoles are tested individually using simulators to verify the integrity of the hardware and
software.

The engine, gearbox and driven equipment are tested to assure specified performance and mechanical
integrity.

Packages are tested as a complete project hardware system with the project control console (excludes oil
coolers and inlet and exhaust systems). This assures the integrity of the turbomachinery package as a
whole including the control system, fuel, lube and start systems, etc. In addition to the standard factory
tests, optional tests are available as part of contract negotiations, such as string testing and compressor
or pump closed loop testing.

Quality Assurance
The SBMS manual, corporate procedures, quality policy, quality objectives, and business unit specific
QMS documentation (process flows, work instructions and guidance notes) can be accessed on Solar's
intranet web site.

The quality of the product is assured in several ways throughout the project cycle. An extensive supplier
management system employs supplier evaluation / re-evaluation processes, supplier alliances, receiving
inspection processes, and source inspection. Depending upon the status and rating of the supplier,
varying levels of source and receiving inspection are employed. A supplier's status is based upon the
suppliers' performance and ability to meet Solar's requirements. Ratings are typically based upon the
supplier's historical defect rate and delivery performance then evaluated by a team comprised of Supplier
Development Engineers, Supplier Technical Engineers, Buyers, and various other Engineering disciplines,
as necessary.

A formal nonconforming material review process is used to document and disposition discrepant material
when identified in the product realization process. At completion of manufacture and prior to shipment of
the product, a final inspection is performed. Systems and processes are continuously audited to ensure
effectiveness.

Receiving Inspection
Receiving Inspection of incoming materials is established based on the type of material being supplied
and the supplier's historical performance. If material is found to be acceptable by Receiving Inspection,
inspection records are updated to indicate acceptance and the material is forwarded to inventory or the
point of use. If material does not meet Solar's requirements, the discrepancy is documented per the
nonconforming material process. Inspection records are updated to show nonconformance and the
material is forwarded to a secured holding area for further review and disposition by the established
Material Review Board (MRB). When applicable, the Supplier Technical Engineer requests corrective
action to address the nonconformity.

Supplier Evaluation
Supplier evaluations are conducted through a questionnaire, on-site audit, and/or third-party certification
process to determine specific qualifications. An assessment of a potential supplier's commercial,
technical, and quality capabilities to provide requested items and/or services is conducted by the Supply

Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
Chain. When required, Design and/or Manufacturing Engineering and Quality personnel assist with the
assessment.

Material procured from new suppliers is processed in accordance with requirements contained in the
Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), and may be flagged for inspection upon receipt to ensure
compliance with Solar and Customer requirements.

Supplier and Partnership Relationships


Suppliers undergo a rigorous process, including an 18-point process-control assessment that addresses
material and documentation control, personnel selection and training, quality management, and continual
improvement approach. Annual quality, cost, and cycle-time reduction goals are established and
monitored, and direct point-of-use deliveries provide both Solar and these suppliers with quality and cost
benefits.

Supplier partnerships exist where there is a critical dependency on supplier technology, part performance,
and/or part lead times. A few select partners have demonstrated the highest quality and performance
standards, participated in shared risk-taking, and assigned people in Solar's facilities to participate in new
product development teams.

Solar's supplier strategy is to optimize the number of suppliers by basing selection on core competencies,
value added, and dedication to continual improvement. Solar provides suppliers with monthly status of
their delivery and quality performance. Solar hosts Supplier Symposiums and training to strengthen
relationships and has special practices in place to manage and protect its small, disadvantaged suppliers.

Inspection and Test Plan (ITP)


The ITP documents quality assurance, inspection and testing requirements, and defines the level of
Customer or third-party involvement in the inspection process. The ITP is the controlling Quality Control
document for new package projects. Although ITPs are project specific, their format has been
standardized. For example, a standard package ITP contains the following sections:

• Section 1: Major Purchased Parts


• Section 2: Turbomachinery Base (TurboFab)
• Section 3: Packaging Manifolds
• Section 4: Control Console
• Section 5: Gas Turbine
• Section 6: Process Compressor
• Section 7: Package Assembly
• Section 8: Package Test
• Section 9: Final Inspection
• Section 10: Documentation

The ITP is created based on information derived from Customer specifications and project coordination or
kick-off meetings. ITPs are revision controlled and are issued to the Solar organization, applicable
suppliers, and corresponding Customers.

Control Consoles
Solar's control console undergoes a variety of quality control processes during the manufacturing phase.
Departmental personnel perform in-process inspections during the console build cycle. Following
assembly, the completed control console is statically tested. The console is then tested together with the
turbomachinery package during the package acceptance testing process.

New Package Quality Overview

Operations
New package project inspection, test, and quality assurance documentation requirements are identified in
the project specific Inspection and Test Plan (ITP). This information is communicated to the organization.
At each Solar manufacturing site, personnel are accountable to ensure that these requirements are met
and incorporated into the work. Prior to the commencement of the assembly / package, a project-specific
controlled quality checklist is created. The checklists verify that operations are performed, and data are
recorded.

At the completion of package assembly and prior to moving the package to test, a pre-test audit is
performed. This ensures that assembly of the product has been satisfactorily completed and that project
special requirements have been incorporated into the assembly.

Standard Work Sequence and In-Process Validations


Standard work sequences identify manufacturing requirements conducted throughout the product
realization process. These processes are controlled and monitored to maximize quality and design
requirements using standardized work instructions. Standard work sequences provide personnel with
consistent and efficient assembly instructions and allocated performance time requirements. Contained
within standard work sequences are in-process validations. These visual and physical checks are
performed at designated intervals to identify package assembly discrepancies and provide opportunities
to fix discrepancies and eliminating issues from escaping to the next manufacturing sequence.

During pre-determined build milestones, Built-In Quality (BIQ) inspections at designated Quality Gates
are conducted. These strategically located Quality Gates ensure that nonconformances are not passed to
the next sequence in the manufacturing cycle. Identified nonconformances are documented in the
Material Review and Corrective Action system and significant issues, based on established criteria, are
issued a Quality Alert and addressed with a containment plan and corrective action.

Instrument Calibration
The accuracy of Inspection Measuring and Test equipment used at any Solar facility in the production
process for product acceptance purposes is maintained through a calibration control program.
Measurement devices and instruments are calibrated using standards traceable to International System
of Units (SI), through a National Metrology Institute, such as the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST), or derived from a controlled measurement process employing a fundamental constant
of nature.

The frequency of calibration is established based on stability, purpose and degree of usage. The initial
interval will be assigned according to manufacturer's recommendation, or established from historical data.
Calibration intervals are adjusted as required to assure continued accuracy, based on the results of
proceeding calibrations.

New Package Tests
Testing is conducted throughout the product manufacturing cycle. Major assemblies, including gas turbine
engines, gas compressors, controls, generators, and gearboxes undergo separate or combined tests to
evaluate and confirm that they individually meet performance requirements. Subassemblies (turbine
nozzles, combustor liners, turbine cases, fuel manifolds, injectors, rotor blades, starters, pumps,
compressor cases, etc.) have individual component and subassembly tests. When these subassemblies
are assembled into a package, additional tests are performed to validate that the package is functioning
as intended.

Solar's production test facilities are arranged to provide for a three-part test program.
1. The first phase uses simulation equipment to perform static testing of the control console and
package systems to verify electrical and fluid system continuity and calibration prior to dynamic test
preparation.
2. The second phase consists of interconnecting the turbine package and control console and
performing additional simulated systems tests on the total package. Upon completion of these tests,
the package is prepared for interconnection with the test cell facilities.
3. In the third and final phase, the unit is typically installed in a test cell where it is controlled and
monitored by its control console. A real-time data acquisition system collects raw digital and analog
data from the turbine package. Results are displayed in customary engineering forms and units.

Accountability
To oversee the tests, a Package Test Engineer is assigned and is responsible to ensure that all tests
required by Solar and Customer specifications are properly conducted. As the test operations are
completed, the Test Technicians performing the work stamp off test operations on the applicable Test
Stamp-Off Sheet. The sheets become part of the permanent test record for the package and incorporated
into the QA Data Book.

Pre-Test Activities
During Pre-Test activities, vital static checks are performed on the package. The testing performed
included lube oil flushing of the lube oil tank and manifolds (as applicable), pressurized leak checks of
package systems and package instrument calibration verifications. The package's control system is
connected and used to statically test and verify functionality of the package safety devices and control
systems. Upon completion of the Pre-Test activities, the package is ready for testing in the test cell facility.

Engine Test Acceptance


Engines are performance tested on a facility test skid using a water brake dynamometer or a facility
generator as the load. (Refer to Package Test Acceptance paragraph below for exceptions).

Facility measurement and display equipment in the test cell monitor the gas turbine and / or package
under test and allows for evaluation of its performance. This data acquisition system establishes specified
test conditions using calibration coefficients, constants and operation limits. The data are shown on
terminal displays while the system constantly monitors values and limits. When performance levels have
been achieved per Solar Turbines Acceptance Specifications, the test technician initiates a command to
capture all instrumented points, initiating automatic performance computations. The data acquisition
system captures and displays this performance data generated at specific intervals and is reviewed by
Engineering and can be reviewed by Customer personnel on site during test observation. The data and
test results become part of the permanent test record and provided in a Certified Test Report.

Items excluded from Standard Turbine Engine Testing are contract inlet and exhaust system ancillary
equipment such as filters, silencers and ducting, battery systems, oil coolers, package enclosure, ancillary
skid, switchgear and any Customer furnished hardware.

Package Test Acceptance


For certain products such as the Saturn, Centaur and Taurus 60 generator set family, the engine test is
integrated as part of the package test (new packages only). The gas turbine is tested on the package,
using the contract generator to provide load. Engine performance and package acceptance is based on
the loaded package test.

During a package acceptance test, monitoring systems are utilized to verify functionality and integrity of
package systems such as; lube oil, fuel delivery and monitoring system, vibration system, generator and
compressor or mechanical drive controls. The package control system is used to generate package
acceptance data for direct comparison to field operation and this data are evaluated and compared with
package test specification to ensure compliance by Test Engineering / Product Engineering and can be
reviewed by Customer personnel on site during Customer observation. The data and test results become
part of the permanent test record and included in the Package Certified Test Report.

Items excluded from Package testing are contract inlet and exhaust system ancillary equipment such as
filters, silencers, ducting, battery systems, oil coolers, package enclosure, ancillary skid, switchgear and
any Customer furnished hardware.

specification requirements (i.e. AWS, QAS). All Structural parts are manufactured per Solar Engineering
Drawing and AWS 1.1. Welders are qualified to AWS D1.1. Solar manufactured components are painted
in accordance with the applicable specifications. The enclosure roof frame wiring and tubing systems are
pre-assembled. The enclosure roof is assembled to the package base skid after the roof supports are
installed. Base seals are laid out and assembled as required. Side panels and doors are pre-assembled
with the applicable hardware prior to installation. Final electrical runs are made and inspected. Panels and
doors are installed and secured to the enclosure. Standard enclosure tests are conducted on all the
applicable systems to ensure systems operate within the requirements of the Engineering Test
specifications. Final visual inspection is accomplished prior to package movement to the Industrial
Coatings area.

Final Inspection
Following completion of assembly and test activities, the final product will undergo a final inspection of
mechanical and electrical integrity, paint quality and workmanship, prior to preparation for shipment.

For new packages, the package is cleaned and prepared for final paint touch up and is painted in
accordance with the engineering specifications and any special Customer requirements. Final inspections
are made after paint to assure all systems are intact and sealed as required. Quality Engineers perform
inspections to verify proper completion of package assembly activities and collection of data. Any
discrepancies are noted and are resolved by the responsible department. Customer Final Inspection, if
required, is accomplished at this point. The Shipping department inspects all loose-ship components and
hardware prior to packaging for shipment. The package is prepared, and all associated loose-ship
hardware is boxed and shipped to the destination specified in the contract.

Material Traceability
Material verification takes place at the time of material receipt. Material traceability in the form of Material
Test Reports (MTRs) can be provided for ASME code stamped components, lube oil piping, fuel piping,
gas seal piping, start system piping, and the baseplate components only as a custom feature in Solar's
Application Check Sheet (ACS). For the gas turbine engine and process compressors, serial number
traceability is maintained on the major components that include the casings, shafts, disks, rotors, and
hubs. The individual material traceability for these components is maintained by the suppliers and can be
provided by custom feature notation in the ACS.

Measurement, Analysis and Improvement

Nonconforming Material
Solar employs procedures for documenting and correcting non-conformances in its processes through a
designated system as defined by the local business unit. This system is applied to internal design,
fabrication and testing processes and externally to our suppliers.

Nonconforming material is identified, segregated and processed through a Material Review Board (MRB)
for disposition.

Corrective Action
A Corrective Action system, as defined by the local business unit, is in place to manage internally and
externally identified issues. Repetitive or significant safety, quality, schedule, cost, process, supplier,
specification / standard or internal audit issue will result in the initiation of a Corrective Action Request
(CAR).

Containment, when appropriate, is performed to identify the extent of the issue and immediately take
action to address the symptom(s). Root Cause Analysis, when warranted, is conducted to ensure the true

Approval
May 28, 2024
Page 156
Solar Turbines YINSON PRODUCTION AS
Oil & Gas Taurus 70 Compressor Set
root cause of the issue is identified and a corrective action plan is created and implemented to address
and resolve the issue to prevent reoccurrence. When Root Cause analysis is not warranted, and only a
correction is required, a Correction (COR) is created instead of a CAR.

After the corrective action is completed, verification of the effectiveness of the implemented action(s) is
conducted. Finalized CARs and CORs are reviewed by designated personnel to verify proper closure.

Field feedback is communicated to and reviewed by the appropriate authority, thus providing the
opportunity for corrections and establishing corrective action.

Internal Audits
Internal audits are systematic, independent, and documented processes for obtaining evidence and
evaluating it objectively to determine the extent to which criteria are fulfilled. Internal auditors perform
process reviews at specified intervals. Internal audits are used as part of the continual quality
improvement process.

Data Analysis
Appropriate data to determine the suitability and effectiveness of the QMS and evaluation where
improvement can be implemented are identified, collected, analyzed and evaluated.

After data collection has been obtained from sources and stages throughout the product lifecycle, the
data is reviewed, analyzed, trended and prioritized. Data analysis results are published and
communicated to affected areas / personnel.

Customer / Third Party Inspection


Within the manufacturing process, provisions can be made for the Customer or the Customer's Third
Party Representative to, non-obstructively observe with notice, elements of the manufacturing and testing
processes at Solar's facilities, or at the facilities of Solar's major suppliers. To make commercial provision
and to ensure coordination, the extent of the Customer's in-process inspection or observation must be
communicated prior to, or at time of order. These requirements shall be reflected in the project ITP. Due to
the pace of the procurement and production processes, inspection and documentation milestones may be
missed if requirements are not defined at the outset of the project. If required, the Project Manager will
arrange for a pre-inspection meeting with Customer personnel to finalize detailed inspection and testing
requirements.The Solar ITP may be augmented by a sub-supplier ITP; this will be noted on the Solar ITP.

Some components, such as lube oil filters, are purchased in bulk. For these items, no Customer
observations are possible unless arrangements are made well in advance and a special project specific
part number is created and placed on order. There are commercial and schedule impacts for these
observe points. The Solar ITP will provide sole direction for the observation points of the project.

Customer Satisfaction
Top tier measurements are compiled and reviewed monthly at the enterprise management level to gage
customer satisfaction, including both internal and external Customers. These measurements include:

• First test pass success


• Discrepancy counts / escapes
• Delivery performance
After package installation / beneficial use, the Customer is requested to fill out a survey to provide
feedback regarding Solar's performance. Based on Customer feedback, process improvement teams may
be deployed to improve our processes and eliminate waste, resulting in faster deliveries of higher quality
products to our customers.

Technical Support Response Center


The Response Center is used by Solar Turbines technical support engineers and / or operational
personnel in the field. The Response Center does not provide direct support to Solar Customers / end
users.

The Response Center provides technical support through experienced personnel that use commercial
database software to track the resolution of problems with Solar manufactured / supplied equipment in
operation in the field. These problems are reported to the Response Center from Solar Representatives in
the field. The Response Center (located in San Diego) creates a case number to track the reported
problem. The Response Center Case Managers can search the database to see if the problem has been
previously encountered and if a solution is on file. If not, a new case is opened. The Response Center
engineer at that time can develop the solution or dispatch the incident to other Solar departmental
personnel for problem resolution. Once a resolution has been obtained, the information is added to the
database that aids in the solution of future similar problems. This database helps ensure that problems
are resolved in a timely manner by providing visibility of the efforts involved in solving the problem and the
status of each problem.

in site ducting. Deviations from these values will have a corresponding impact on performance
observed at the project site. Intake air quality, gas fuel, and liquid fuel shall meet ES 9-98.
Natural Gas fuel sulfur content shall be no greater than 0.1%
(b) All Standard Warranty conditions apply.
(c) Site Performance Test is conducted as per ES 1973. All test uncertainties will be based on
actual test setup and are not included in the tolerances listed.
(d) As per ES 1973, test would require a current Gas analysis, or a Chromatograph installed in the
system

PENALTIES FOR FIELD PERFORMANCE TEST GUARANTEES

If during the site performance test, Seller fails to meet the Guaranteed Performance Parameters as
set forth in the above section. Seller shall be given the opportunity to carry out at Seller’s own
