Wood has secured a contract from Siemens to install a new Siemens HL-class gas turbine at a power generating station in North Carolina, USA.
The award will see Wood mobilise a team of around 400 people to the project site to deliver this notable construction project for a period of approximately 11 months.
Andrew Stewart, Wood’s Asset Solutions Americas CEO, said: “This contract is a fantastic demonstration of Wood’s ability to deliver a breadth of services to meet the needs of various customers in the power and process industries. This power plant is serving the growing demand for electricity, and the construction of a new combustion turbine station is part of a plant expansion programme.”
Stewart added: “Siemens is driving the test of new, more efficient HL-class gas turbine technology at the station and we are privileged to be part of this important and strategic programme to add 400 MW of capacity to the plant’s existing 1200 MW.”

When the tanks are full, the liquefied carbon dioxide will be loaded onto a dedicated carrier from Royal Wagenborg and shipped to the INEOS Nini platform in the Danish North Sea. From there, it will be safely injected via pipeline into subsurface reservoirs approximately 1800 m beneath the seabed for permanent storage.
