Abstract
A system a first mobile body configured to support a turbine engine and an auxiliary skid communicatively and fluidly coupled to the turbine engine. The auxiliary skid includes one or more interconnects configured to support a turbine engine component. The system also includes a second mobile body configured to support a generator. The first and second mobile bodies are configured to align a removable coupling between the turbine engine and the generator.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a first mobile body configured to support both a turbine engine and an auxiliary skid communicatively and fluidly coupled to the turbine engine, wherein the first mobile body has one or more first wheels, and the auxiliary skid comprises one or more interconnects configured to support a turbine engine component;
- and
- a second mobile body configured to support a generator, wherein the second mobile body has one or more second wheels, and the first and second mobile bodies are configured to align a removable coupling between the turbine engine and the generator.
A system, comprising:
- a first mobile body configured to support both a turbine engine and an auxiliary skid communicatively and fluidly coupled to the turbine engine, wherein the first mobile body has one or more first wheels, and the auxiliary skid comprises a controller configured to support a turbine engine component;
- a second mobile body configured to support a generator, wherein the second mobile body has one or more second wheels, and the first and second mobile bodies are configured to align a removable coupling between the turbine engine and the generator;
- and
- a third mobile body configured to support a control system communicatively coupled to the controller of the auxiliary skid, wherein the third mobile body has one or more third wheels.
1 more element
A system, comprising:
- a first mobile body configured to support both a turbine engine and an auxiliary skid communicatively and fluidly coupled to the turbine engine, wherein the first mobile body has one or more first wheels, the turbine engine is configured to removably couple to a generator disposed on a second mobile body having one or more second wheels, and the auxiliary skid comprises a controller communicatively coupled to a turbine engine support component;
