MAPNA Group received a final acceptance certificate (FAC) for the seventh gas unit of Rumaila Combined Cycle Power Plant in Iraq.
The FAC was issued on September 25, 2023, by Shamara Holding, the client of the project.
With the permanent delivery of this unit, MAPNA Combined Cycle Power Plants Construction & Development Company (MD-2) has now received FAC for 114 units with an aggregate capacity of 17,674 MW.
Rumaila Power Plant is the largest international project of MAPNA Group. It has a capacity of 3,156 MW and consists of 12 gas-fired units and six E-type steam units in six combined-cycle blocks. The plant is located near Basra, in southern Iraq, and is developed in four phases.
Phase 1 of the Rumaila Power Plant project includes the construction of six gas-fired units that run on MAPNA Group’s indigenous MAP2B turbines.
The initial efficiency of Phase I simple cycles stands at 34.6 percent. The figure will reach 36 percent one year after the provisional delivery.
Phase 2 of the project includes the construction of three E-type steam cycles, HRSGs (without supplementary firing), ACC cooling system, and BOP (balance of plant).
Phase 3 of the Rumaila Power Plant project also includes the construction of six gas-fired units running on MAPNA Group’s MAP2B turbines.
The initial efficiency of Phase 3 simple cycles stands at 34.6 percent. The figure will reach 36 percent one year after the provisional delivery.
Phase 4 of the project includes the construction of three E-type steam cycles, HRSGs (without supplementary firing), ACC cooling system, and BOP (balance of plant).
MAPNA Group is in charge of the design, procurement, transportation, installation, and commissioning of the plant as well as overseeing its four phases of civil construction. Shamara Holding is responsible for the civil construction and the implementation of steel structures except for the boiler and ACC sections. Germany’s Fichtner Group is the consultant of the client.
The main equipment of the plant, including the MGT-70 gas turbine, E-type steam turbine, and HRSG (without supplementary firing), has been produced by MAPNA Group’s subsidiaries. MD-2 is representing MAPNA Group in carrying out the project
The project has created 2,000 jobs for Iranian and Iraqi experts. It is the third project of MAPNA Group in Iraq after the Heidarieh and Al Sadr power plants.
