STEAM turbines play a crucial role in the oil and gas industry, particularly within petroleum refineries.
These turbines can be classified as backpressure or condensing types, with configurations that include extraction capabilities, depending on the specific design of the plant cycle. In refineries, steam turbines are versatile, serving as mechanical drivers for pumps and compressors, as well as generating power when coupled with alternators.
Additionally, combined cycle systems that incorporate both steam and gas turbines can be tailored for optimal performance, whether for electrical load matching or thermal load matching.
This adaptability allows refineries to enhance their efficiency and meet varying operational demands.
In this context, Triveni Turbines Limited (TTL) is making significant strides in the API segment of the industry.
Recognising the growing need for energy and sustainable technologies amidst a volatile geopolitical landscape, TTL is partnering with leading EPC firms and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to deliver high-efficiency steam turbine solutions.
TTL continues to invest in research and development, with recent successes including highspeed, high-power-density models that enhance the compactness of turbine-generator packages.
The company has installed numerous highspeed turbines, operating at speeds of up to 12,000 rpm, which maintain high reliability and efficiency in various installations.
Additional R&D initiatives focus on developing high-efficiency low-pressure (LP) modules tailored to new requirements, improving highpressure (HP) blading, and introducing innovative sealing technologies, all aimed at advancing the application of steam turbines.
