Mongstad Power Station
Mongstad Power Plant is situated at the west coast of Norway, north of Bergen at the Statoil Mongstad Refinery. It is a combined heat and power plant (CHP) based on a combined cycle.
The electrical capacity is 280 MWe and the heat capacity is 350 MJ/s. It comprises 2 gas turbines each of 130 MWe with heat recovery units and a steam turbine. It uses natural gas and refinery gas as fuel. The power station will have an energy efficiency rate of 70 percent at start-up. The high efficiency is obtained by using the heat in the exhaust gas from the gas turbines to produce steam and
to pre-heat crude oil for the refinery.
Dong Energy is building Mongstad Power Station, and will own and operate it for 20 years. The project is part of The Mongstad Energy Project at Statoils Mongstad Refinery. In 2009 the power station is to be commissioned and enter commercial operation.
