7. Advantages of Floating Power
Plants
The floating Diesel power station can be supplied with
two cooling alternatives: sea water cooling or roof-
mounted radiator equipment.
Minimum operator‘s investment risk due to the
mobility, versatility and adaptability of this type of
plant.
9. Design Considerations
The design of an FPP marries the engineering
protocols of the Marine and Power Generation
Industries. It operates like a ship at sea only
requiring fuel for it’s generating machinery.
The FPP is not designed to sit in waters that are
aggravated by waves however, that make it move
like a vessel at sea, but rather they are designed
for service in protected inland waters such as
rivers, lagoons, or ports.
10. Open Ocean Generation
While floating power plants are generally designed for installation in
protected waters, solutions to offshore problems have given rise to the
idea of open ocean installations. Design of such units is quite different for
these facilities since consideration has to be given to vessel motions, deep
sea mooring systems, subsea fuel supplies and survival in storm
conditions. The generation of high voltage DC electricity and it’s subsea
transmission is also considered for offshore FPP installations.
11. Constructability
One of the biggest advantages of the power barge is it’s constructability;
the whole power plant can be constructed under ideal conditions at a
Shipyard in a location far from the eventual operational site.
Much of the system testing is achieved prior to the barge leaving the
shipyard. This feature is particularly important for installation of barges
in locations where Greenfield construction may be difficult and
expensive.
12. Fuels
The economics of fuels for any power plant, on land or floating, in any
part of the world is a matter of availability and cost.
Options are often limited in many countries and thus one has to use
Available fuels irrespective of cost.
13. Project Implementation
Floating power projects require sound planning and engineering just like
any power generation project.
Location, site conditions, environmental issues, mooring systems,
transmission voltage, cooling systems, permitting, fuel supply andstorage,
etc are all considered in formulating the design basis and eventual
project implementation.
14. Transportation
One of the more significant differences of a floating power plant to a land
based plant is it’s transportability; being capable of moving the unit from
One location to another. This is achieved with the use of submersible
heavy lift ships, designed to move very large structures around the world
Weighing upwards of 60,000 tons. A power barge can be moved from one
location to another in a matter of weeks and connected to the grid to
alleviate local shortages.
15. Barge Operations
FPP operations are carried out very much the same as land based
facilities, with the plant being dispatched in accordance with grid
demand. Irrespective of the generating technology installed, the FFP is
fitted with an onboard control room complete with data acquisition and
all machinery and equipment controls. Switchgear, motor controllers,
main breakers and station and step up transformers are all installed on
the barge.
