Because of the huge draw on new floating barges in the larger A1
Class of +300 feet, the attendant difficulty in locating suitable moorings and the prohibitive
costs
surrounding their in-situ
maintenance, and coupled with the high production costs and lead time -
we decided to think outside the box & use a slightly
more
novel
approach - which - once our engineers had studied & diagnosed the
actual cause & affect - decided it was indeed a no-brainer - we
solved several
rather
profound problems that had evaded us for some time previously - with
our somewhat biased thought processes .... saving you time, saving
you money
The JUB is completely at home in inclement weather, turbulent seas and
extremely harsh weather conditions - perfect for any job, plus we save a whole bunch
of time, dry dock fees and the dreaded
rollover fear is completely eliminated. Most of the ultra large + 120MW floating Power Platforms have extremely high
centre
of gravity
and have an inherent roll over factor if there is a short or lock up in
the turbine - trying to right one of these 500MT monsters is
a complete
no-no ... simply catch the first available flight home and wait for the lawyers to call or better still, emigrate to the
Seychelles or Belize, and get used to fishing
Because the JUB is completely out of the water for all of its life -
metal corrosion from salt and electrolysis is totally absent - no more of those very expensive
monthly checks, no more expensive cleaning and massive annual hull
haulout bills - it makes power 24/7 - it is completely stable - 4 legs or 6 legs per platform
We have cut expensive dry dock build time by 50% - we deploy sooner -
you make power/money sooner - that helps to keep the investor and users very happy
Right now we can offer 40MW 80MW & 120MW variants in under 180
day build times - they will burn HFO, D2 or LNG - we can place the fuel skid & power
transformer on a separate barge, as & if required - please call or
email us immediately for an in-depth quotation - please note - strict
financial conditions apply
No more uprisings and government overthrows, strikes and sabotage -
witness all that plagues Africa and the Middle East - these are not a bunch of crackpot
fundamentalists who dont like the color of
someones burqa - these are folks who dont have decent potable water, ablutions, air conditioning and power to run
their
lives at
basic human-being levels - stuff that we all take for granted - whilst
their rulers languish in Europe and the USA in palatial splendor and
luxury
This is all they demand - just decent, reliable electricity so that they may
cook, iron , light their homes, and watch a little TV - which they are
fully entitled to
Above is Yesterdays Old Legacy Expensive, Unstable, Unmovable, Dangerous, Flip-Flop, Floating Power Barge
It doesnt get much
simpler than this -
drag it
in, jack it up,
make power - in one day!!
B igger is Better - a large
semi can produce
+500MW
We are commited to deliver
the finest quality power from a wide range of fuel sources,
including natural gas, coal, oil, petroleum coke, wind, biomass solar and
water. Rather than being tied
to a single type of technology or force-fitting a rigid solution, we identify what each particular market and
environment can best
support. This helps to bring numerous benefits, including increased
generation capacity and
reliability and lower costs to consumers
Design brief considers hurricane storm conditions and temporary loss
of gas supply, with diesel storage to maintain generation availability. Consideration is
given to reducing pollution
by installing selective catalytic reduction (SCR) units to reduce NOX on the HRSGs. The power plant may be operated
similarly to
any land based combined cycle generating facility, with on-board operators performing similar functions. The multiple turbines, gas compressors, transformers
built into the design also provide a high degree of
redundancy, efficiency, high return-on-investment (ROI) and high cash flows
We have a wide range of Mobile Power Containers & Trailers, which
can be deployed within days and shipped anywhere in the world within weeks - with almost
zero-time setup - we will bring
the power directly to you - 5MW - 50MW 50/60 Hz - Prices are extremely competitive also > $300K/MW.
It
doesnt get any simpler - we design, build & deliver
the project to you - no five year wait for permits 8MW

MODULAR +
The Modular Power concept above - for quick land
installations .... plus Power Barge as below, for serious offshore work
<120MW>
<120MW>
The floating
offshore power
generation facility was initially conceived as a means of monetizing
stranded offshore natural gas, whilst simultaneously permitting
offshore oil production in
the deep waters off the Gulf of Mexico. Interest is now being shown by - Independant Power Producers - to
generate electrical power
offshore, so as to reduce lengthy permit procedures required by land based power plants. A
permanently moored, semi-submersible platform measuring say 300
x 200 ft (100m x 50m) supports the entire power
plant and all its associated equipment.
These rugged, low
maintenance, work horses demand little except fuel ... some
other advantages:-
* Proven power
plant design, many plants still operating after +25 years.
* Unlimited by power generation equipment size,
technology or plant capacity.
* Single or multi complex units located in ''easy
access'' port locations
