2 THE COMPANY

2.1 Historical Background

On 05/04/2000, Saudi Electricity Company was established as a Saudi joint stock

company with a paid-up capital of (41,665,938,150) Saudi Riyal (Forty-one billion six

hundred and sixty-five million nine hundred and thirty-eight thousand one hundred and

fifty Saudi Riyals). This amount was divided into (4,166,593,815) shares (four billion

one hundred and sixty-six million five hundred and ninety three thousand, eight hundred

and fifteen shares). This was achieved by virtue of the Council of Ministers Order (No.

169) Dated 11/08/1419H which stipulated the merger of all Saudi electricity companies

in the Central, Eastern, Western, and Southern Regions in addition to the ten small

companies operating north of the Kingdom as well as the other electricity operations

managed by General Electricity Corporation, into a single joint stock company which is

now known as Saudi Electricity Company.

After the completion of the merger process in the year 2000, we followed a gradual and

systematic method in restructuring the company's business lines for the purpose of

assuring continuity of the electrical power services while maintaining the credibility of

the reliability of the electrical system and quality of services to our customers. We also

prepared our human resources to adapt to the required changes to realize our strategic

objectives and mutual vision.

In the beginning of 2002, the Board of Directors approved the new transitional

organizational structure which was designed based on functional business lines for

specialized activities. Strategic business functions emerged, i.e. Generation,

Transmission and Distribution, and Customer Services; including shared businesses and

support services to enable us to reinforce our performance at the level of all business

lines to draw our future directions for the anticipated holistic change.

In the beginning of 2003, the transitional organizational structure was activated, and the

second stage of the new organizational structure had been applied. In this concern, the

sectors and affiliate departments were defined directly for each and every specialized

business line. The job descriptions were prepared as well as the completion of the job

descriptions of all the other organizational sectors.

In the beginning of 2012, the National Grid SA, a limited liability company wholly

owned by the Saudi Electricity Company was established and launched. Its tasks and

3

responsibilities include electricity transmission in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the

operation, control, and maintenance of the electrical grid. During that year, two more

business lines were introduced: Engineering and Projects Management, and Supply

Chain business lines.

In March 2014, the Board of Directors approved the organizational structure of the

Energy Trading & New Ventures business line which will supervise the trade relations

organized for the Saudi Electricity Company with electric power producers and major

consumers. Its new organizational structure will commence work before the end of the

year as per agreement with the Electricity and Cogeneration Regulatory Authority

(ECRA).

Currently, extensive work is in progress to complete the restructuring project in

compliance with the directions of the Board of Directors for bringing in strategic

partners of world-class service experiences in the field of electric power production and

distribution.(1)

Components of gas turbine

Generally, Gas turbine has five main components Fig(3) which are:

1. Air inlet

2. Compressor

3. Combustion chamber

4. Turbine

5. Electrical generator

Fig(3): Gas turbine components

In field, each component need process and protection to work perfectly. We will start to

talk about each component separately.

1. Air inlet

Where this point is the entrance of air, we have about 700 air filter to make sure is no

any sands or dirty things. The air enters to compressor with pressure equal to 1 bar (

Atm ). 30 % of inlet air will be for combustion chamber and the other 70 % for cooling

inside the unit. Fig(4) shows the air inlet from outside of unit. In Fig(5) we see two

types of filters. One of them is cylindrical and the other is conical.

7

Fig(4): Air inlet from outside of unit

Fig(5): Air filters

2. Compressor

The compressor is a machine used to increase the pressure of gases. The air enter to

compressor with pressure equal to 1 bar and leave with 8 bar. Where the change of the

pressure is very high So, we need a compressor with multiple stages. The compressor

contains 17 stages Fig(6).

8

Fig(6): The compressor with 17 stages

3. Combustion chamber

As we mention in Ch1, In Jeddah Power plant No. 3, it has two types of units one of

them from GE and the other from ABB. The units from GE contain 10 combustion

chambers surrounding the compressor Fig(7) and Fig(8). The units from ABB contain

only one combustion chamber Fig(9).

Fig(10): Liner in combustion chamber

Fig(11): Transition pieces in combustion chamber

4. Turbine

Is a machines having a rotor, usually with vanes or blades, driven by the pressure,

momentum, or reactive thrust of a moving fluid, as steam, water, hot gases, or air, either

occurring in the form of free jets or as a fluid passing through and entirely filling a

housing around the rotor. In GE units, the turbine has 3 stages where the BBC units

contains 5 stages Fig(12).

11

Fig(12): Turbine stages in BBC unit

5. Electrical Generator

Is a machine to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy. It contains two

components: Rotor and stator Fig(13).

Fig(13): Rotor and stator of electrical generator

How the gas turbine works?

1. Air enters to the compressor due to suction process inside the compressor up to

given pressure ratio.

2. The compressor increase the pressure and temperature of air .

12

3. The air with high pressure goes to combustion chambers, the fuel nozzle will

start to spray the fuel with air inside each chambers. Then the spark plugs will

start the combustion.

4. Inside the combustion chambers, the hot burnt gases are produced and they go to

the turbine and exert pressure on the turbine blades.

5. The turbine starts rotation and producing mechanical power.

6. In the generator, the rotor will rotate with the high velocity that generate a

magnetic field then the electrical power will produce.

Casing:

Gas turbines have a casing Fig(14) around the blades that contains and controls the

working fluid.

Fig(14): The Casing of gas turbine

2.6.2 Workshops

Workshops section have many departments, and the most important departments is

Welding, Turning, grinding, drilling and NDT. The objective of the workshop at general

and these three departments in particular is supporting or serve the turbines.

1- Welding Workshop:

Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials,

usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing fusion, which is distinct from lower

temperature metal-joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do

not melt the base metal. In Fig(15), the welding machine used to control the current.

Fig(16) shows the electric rod which used in welding process. Fig(17) shows how the

process work.

2- Turning Workshop:

Turning operation Fig(18) is one of the most basic machining processes. That is, the

part is rotated while a single point cutting tool is moved parallel to the axis of rotation.

15

Fig(18): Turning machine

3- Grinding Workshop:

Grinding is an abrasive machining process that uses a grinding wheel as the cutting tool

Fig(19).

Fig(19): Grinding machine

16

4- Drilling Workshop:

Drilling is a cutting process that uses a drill bit to cut a hole of circular cross-section in

solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multipoint Fig(20).

Fig(20): Drilling machine

5- NDT Workshop:

NDT means Non-destructive testing, and it's defined as a process of inspecting, testing,

or evaluating materials, components or assemblies for discontinuities, or differences in

characteristics without destroying the serviceability of the part or system. It's used

mostly to check if there are any cracks in the shafts, also to decide if the shaft should be

changed or it can be fixed according to the condition of the cracks.

6- Pumps workshop:

Pumps is very important workshop inside the plant. Each unit have different types of

pump as: Fuel pump, oil pump and water pump. In pump workshop there are common

problems. Table(2) will show many problems and it's causes.

Table(2): Common problems in pumps workshop

Problem Causes

Pump rotate but it doesn't pump liquid Suction line is dirty

Pump doesn't produce any pressure May be there is a leakage

Bearing is hot Need to check the lubrication

2.7 Environmental and social impact

A power plant can affect the environment by its construction and by its operation. These

effects can be for long or short time. A power plant and its auxiliary components take

up space on the ground, in the air, and the use water resources. Also, it may emit

pollutants into the air. It can also affect on the future uses of nearby land.

Inside the unit, we burn fuels to make either hot air needed to rotate power turbines

generating electricity. The burning of fuel creates exhaust gases and other products,

including air pollutants.

The construction and operation of a power plant can have noises effects on the

community in which the power plant is built. Construction of the power plant, Also, it

might have an effect on community aesthetics or business. Costs for community

services such as police, fire protection.

There also can be positive effects on the community such as jobs for local population

and provide the electricity for them.

2.8 Quality System

Saudi Arabia has a power transmission and distribution networks length 554,254 (km-

circuit) of high voltage lines and cables and range from 110 kV to 380 kV. The number

of settlements electrified reached 12,722. The company is looking forward to increasing

the efficiency and effectiveness of its main tasks of dealing with the generation,

transmission and distribution business and to achieve maximum benefit from its capital

projects by providing the best to our customers.(2)

𝑊𝑇 = ( 89.7 × 1.9 × 1386 ) − ( 89.7 × 1.099 × 807.9 )

𝑊𝑇 = 156.6 𝑀𝑊

4.2 Literature Review and Data Collection

Gas turbines are one of the most widely-used power generating technologies. Gas

turbines are a type of internal combustion engine in which burning of an air-fuel

mixture produces hot gases that spin a turbine to produce power. It is the production of

hot gas during fuel combustion, not the fuel itself that the gives gas turbines the name.

Gas turbines can utilize a variety of fuels, including natural gas, fuel oils, and synthetic

fuels. Combustion occurs continuously in gas turbines, as opposed to reciprocating

engines, in which combustion occurs intermittently.

23

Nowadays, Gas turbines are becoming increasingly used as power generators for a wide

variety of applications around the world. Originally they were developed solely for

aircraft propulsion where their inherent low specific weight (i.e. mass/unit power) made

them essential for high speed flight. they have been developed to a high degree of

efficiency both thermodynamically and mechanically. The lower efficiency of the gas

turbine will effect to the performance of the gas turbine itself, the waste of the fuel

because of the unburned hydrocarbon and the impact to the environment, while the gas

turbine with a incomplete combustion. To increase the performance in term of

efficiency, the gas generator speed is controlled from 1500 rotary per second to 1250

rotary per second. In order to increase the efficiency of the gas turbine, the power output

must high, because it is proportional to the efficiency. Besides low fuel consumption is

also important to evaluate an efficient gas turbine because it is inversely proportional to

efficiency of the unit.(4)

Gas turbine history:

1791: First patent for a gas turbine (John Barber, United Kingdom)

1904: Unsuccessful gas turbine project by Franz Stolze in Berlin (first axial

compressor)

1906: GT by Armengaud Lemale in France (centrifugal compressor, no useful

power)

191: First GT featuring intermittent combustion (Holzwarth, 150 kW, constant

volume combustion)

1923: First exhaust-gas turbocharger to increase the power of diesel engines

1939: World’s first gas turbine for power generation (Brown Boveri Company),

Neuchâtel, Switzerland (velox burner, aerodynamics by Stodola).

1946: National Gas Turbine Establishment formed from Power Jets and the RAE

turbine division bring together Whittle and Hayne Constant's work In Beznau,

Switzerland the first commercial reheated/recuperated unit generating 27 MW was

commissioned.

1963: Pratt and Whitney introduce the GG4/FT4 which is the first commercial aero

derivative gas turbine.

2011: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries tests the first >60% efficiency gas turbine (the

M501J) at its Takasago works.(5)

24

4.3 Knowledge integration with course work

4.4 Safety and environmental issues

The Saudi Electricity company is care about the safety standards clearly. They provide a

personal protective equipment to the employees in the field. Also, the company making

a lot of tests like the hearing test for the employees periodically, to make sure that they

are safe. If they Figure out that any one of the employees has a health problem because

of his working place they directly transfer him to another place to avoid the

complications.

Fig(32): Electricity cost in Saudi Arabia

4.7 Implementation

The Saudi electricity company and Jeddah power plant 3 have inaugurated the

kingdom's first independent project for the production of electrical power, Arab news

has reported. The Jeddah Power Plant 3, which was implemented at a total investment

of about 4 billion SR, adds 480 MW of new generating capacity boosting the kingdom's

electricity network. (6)

4.8 Impact analysis

As any industry field, Power Plant 3 use petroleum products which give off the

following emissions when they are burned as fuel:

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Carbon monoxide (CO)

Sulfur dioxide (SO2)

Nitrogen oxides (NOX)

Nearly all of these byproducts have negative impacts on the environment and human

health:

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and a source of global warming.

SO2 causes acid rain, which is harmful to plants and to animals that live in water, and it

worsens or causes respiratory illnesses and heart diseases, particularly in children and

the elderly.

29

NOX contributes to ground-level ozone, which irritates and damages the lungs. (7)
