Abstract
Some embodiments relate to a power generation system. An example power generation system comprises: a gas turbine to generate electrical power from combustion of natural gas; an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) generator to generate electrical power from heat recovery; a gas supply line for supplying vaporised liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the gas turbine; a power supply subsystem to receive electrical power from at least one of the gas turbine or the ORC generator and to supply power to at least one remote power sink; and a damper. The damper may, in a first position, allow the gas turbine and the ORC generator to operate together, and in a second position, allow the gas turbine and ORC generator to operate independently of each other.
Claims23
A power generation system, comprising:
- a gas turbine to generate electrical power from combustion of natural gas;
- an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) generator to generate electrical power from heat recovery;
- a gas supply line for supplying vaporised liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the gas turbine;
- a power supply subsystem to receive electrical power from at least one of the gas turbine or the ORC generator and to supply power to at least one remote power sink;
- and
- a damper which, in a first position allows the gas turbine and the ORC generator to operate together, and in a second position allows the gas turbine and ORC generator to operate independently of each other.
A floating power generation system, comprising the system of claim 15 installed on a vessel, the vessel including a vessel frame, a hull around the vessel frame and defining fore and aft sections, and a deck supported by the vessel frame;
- wherein the power supply subsystem is configured to supply power to at least one remote power sink that is away from the vessel.
