When facing combustion turbine upgrades, power generators should consider all turbine inlet cooling (TIC) technologies, including wet compression, says John Kraft, president of Caldwell Energy Company ...

Gas turbine power augmentation systems such as inlet fogging, evaporative cooling and wet compression have been applied to many units over the past several years. The ability to generate additional ...

MeeFog’s very first installation of inlet air fogging was done at Harbor Cogen in Southern California in 1991 on a GE 7EA turbine where it continues to be used for power augmentation to this day ...

With last November’s definite decision to choose subsea gas compression rather than a surface support facility for fields in the Aasgard area of the Norwegian Sea, Statoil is set on a path which ...

After several years of technology development, construction and testing the first subsea wet gas compressor in the world is now installed at the Gullfaks C platform in the North Sea. In May and June ...

Back in the early 2000s, some controversy emerged about the practice of spraying large amounts of fog directly into the compressor. Some claimed that this led to blade erosion, pitting,… ...
