165 MWe to South Africa’s national grid. Phase I, for the project’s scope definition, was completed in June 2008. Phase II work began in July 2008 with an expected date of completion of September 2014.

S

audi Electricity Co (SEC) has selected an Alstom-led consortium to build stage 3 of the Shoaiba power plant in Saudi Arabia. The new 1200 MW steam power plant will be constructed next to the existing Shoaiba plant, located on the Red Sea coast 100 km south of Jeddah. When completed, the Shoaiba power station will comprise 14 units of 400 MW each, with a gross total output of 5600 MW. As the leader of the consortium, Alstom will design, supply, install and commission the entire plant, including oil-fired boilers, STF40 steam turbines, GIGATOP turbogenerators, sea-water flue gas desulphurization and auxiliary equipment. The boilers are designed to burn both crude and heavy fuel oil. Stages 1 and 2 of Shoaiba were supplied by an Alstom-led consortium on a turnkey basis. The contract to build stage 1, consisting of five 400 MW units, was signed in October 1998. Following its completion in 2003, a second contract was signed in March 2004 for stage 2, which included six 400 MW units. Stage 2 was completed in December 2007, with the last unit (number 6) commercially operational six months in advance of the agreed contract completion date.
