The LM2500XPRESS+G4 DLE UPT is a fast-deployable gas turbine system engineered for demanding oil and gas environments—onshore or offshore. It offers a balanced combination of power, efficiency, and installation speed, making it especially suited for upstream, midstream, and LNG operations where reliable electricity and mechanical drive are critical and timelines are tight.

At the core of this system is the LM2500+G4 gas generator, a proven design that delivers higher output and efficiency than earlier models, thanks to improvements in airflow, thermal capability, and cooling. It strikes a solid middle ground in the 20–40 MW class—powerful enough to support heavy oilfield infrastructure but lighter and more flexible than larger industrial turbines.

The Dry Low Emissions (DLE) combustion system helps meet environmental regulations without relying on water or steam injection—a major advantage for remote or offshore sites where water supply is limited or emissions compliance is strict.

The Upgraded Power Turbine (UPT) adds flexibility in terms of shaft speed and load-following, which makes this unit adaptable for various oil and gas power demands—from continuous baseload operation to backup and peaking support.

Its XPRESS configuration emphasizes rapid deployment. The turbine is delivered in a compact, modular format, pre-assembled into a small number of transportable units with simplified electrical and mechanical interconnections. This minimizes site work, shortens commissioning time to a matter of weeks, and reduces exposure to remote-site construction risks.

The LM2500+ DLE gas turbine is designed to provide reliable, efficient while meeting strict environmental rules. Ideal for power plants where emissions limits and water availability are critical concerns, the LM2500+ DLE provides clean, flexible, and high-performance power generation.

Using advanced Dry Low Emissions (DLE) technology, it reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions without requiring water or steam injection. This makes it especially valuable for facilities aiming to minimize environmental impact and avoid the operational complexity and maintenance costs associated with water-based emissions control systems.

The turbine’s ability to maintain NOx emissions below 25 ppm on natural gas—and as low as 15 ppm under certain conditions—ensures compliance with tough air quality standards.

With a power output exceeding 31 megawatts and thermal efficiency above 40%, the LM2500+ DLE suits a broad range of applications, from utility-scale electricity generation to industrial cogeneration and offshore power. Its fast start capability and robust cycling performance enable it to respond quickly to fluctuating grid demands, making it an excellent partner for integrating renewable energy sources.

Fuel flexibility extends the LM2500+ DLE’s usability across different operational contexts. It runs smoothly on natural gas, diesel, aviation fuels, and even hydrogen blends—offering operators confidence and versatility regardless of fuel availability or market conditions.

Maintenance is simplified thanks to the turbine’s modular design, allowing rapid access and part replacement. This reduces downtime and keeps plants running efficiently, enhancing overall productivity.

Combining power, efficiency, emissions control, and fuel flexibility, the LM2500+ DLE supports effective and compliant power generation in a variety of operational settings.

The 6″ Butterfly Bleed Air Valve is designed to regulate the flow of compressed bleed air from the compressor section of large gas turbines, such as the LM2500. This valve uses a butterfly-shaped disc permanently attached to a robust shaft, allowing precise control over airflow to reduce pressure and temperature within the turbine system.

With an effective flow area of 19.1 square inches max, this valve accommodates higher volumes of bleed air, making it suitable for turbines with greater airflow requirements. It features a fast response time—less than 320 milliseconds for a full stroke—ensuring timely adjustments to changing operating conditions. The valve’s bearings are engineered for high cycle service, providing durability and reliability even under frequent opening and closing cycles.

The 6″ valve helps protect turbine components by managing thermal loads and maintaining optimal compressor performance, which in turn improves overall turbine efficiency and extends equipment life. It is commonly used in oil and gas applications where maintaining safe, efficient, and reliable turbine operation is critical. This valve also serves as a drop-in replacement in existing turbine systems, requiring no hydraulic or electrical modifications, simplifying installation and reducing downtime.

The 3-inch sleeve-style hot air purge valve is designed for aero-derivative industrial gas turbines to control the flow of hot compressor bleed air used in critical purge operations. This valve is normally closed and solenoid-pilot actuated, available in two- or three-inch sizes with elbow sleeve design. It operates on 24 or 125 VDC power and is constructed with ANSI B16.5 Class 600 raised face flanges.

Key specifications include a physical size of approximately 7.5 inches wide and 25 inches high, weighing between 84 to 91 pounds. It can handle line pressures up to 500 psig and actuation pressures between 80 and 125 psig. The valve is rated to operate in fluid temperatures ranging from 32°F to 1100°F (bleed air), and can withstand ambient temperatures between –20°F and 240°F with heat soak up to 400°F for 1 to 2 hours when de-energized.

Performance characteristics include a flow capacity of about 1.2 pounds per second of compressor bleed air with a maximum pressure drop of 0.70 psi across normal operating conditions. Internal leakage is minimal, rated at 0.00025 pounds per minute. The valve features a rapid full stroke response time of 1 second for both opening and closing cycles. It includes a position indicating switch and supports continuous duty operation.

Functionally, this valve plays a crucial role in purging residual fuels, such as diesel, from the combustor fuel lines when switching fuels, preventing deposits that can impair turbine performance or cause damage. The valve is often installed in pairs for dual redundancy to enhance safety and operational reliability. With millions of field operating hours, this design reflects high durability and precise control essential for efficient and safe turbine operation.

LM2500 Fixture, Hinge – Upper Compressor Case is a specialized tool set designed to safely raise and hinge open the upper compressor case of the LM2500 gas turbine engine. This fixture is essential during major maintenance, inspection, or overhaul activities where access to the engine’s internal compressor components is required.
