The LM2500+G4 DLE U PT is a versatile gas turbine designed for a wide range of applications, including onshore and offshore power generation, gas pipeline compression, and LNG compression. It features Dry Low Emissions (DLE) technology, which reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions to as low as 25 parts per million by volume (ppmv) at 15% oxygen, meeting stringent environmental standards.

In the oil and gas industry, production rates are closely linked to available horsepower. The LM2500+G4 DLE U PT offers higher power output, high reliability, and a lower initial cost per kilowatt, making it a cost-effective solution for energy-intensive operations.

This turbine has proven its capability to operate reliably in extreme ambient conditions, with running data demonstrating performance at temperatures as low as -50°F and start-up capability down to -40°F. This wide operational temperature range ensures dependable service in harsh environments.

Fuel flexibility is a key strength of the LM2500+G4 DLE U PT. It can seamlessly switch between various fuels—lean treated natural gas, rich offshore gas, propane, or diesel—without shutting down or losing efficiency. This flexibility supports energy security, allowing continuous operation even if the natural gas supply is interrupted. Additionally, the turbine can be adapted to burn alternative fuels like bioethanol and naphtha, further enhancing fuel options.

A notable advantage of aeroderivative gas turbines like the LM2500+G4 DLE U PT is their ability to operate on hydrogen blends, which produce no carbon emissions when combusted. Both new turbines and existing units can be converted for high hydrogen fuel use, supporting decarbonization goals.

Moreover, the LM2500+G4 DLE U PT is truly dual-fuel capable, able to switch from 100% natural gas to 100% propane without the need for pilot fuels. This contrasts with dual-fuel reciprocating engines, which typically require about 5% diesel during gas operation, increasing costs and emissions. The LM2500+G4 DLE U PT’s fuel flexibility, emission controls, and robust design make it a reliable and efficient choice for demanding mechanical drive and power generation needs in the oil and gas sector.

The LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Combined Cycle 2x1 is a high-performance gas turbine system designed for large-scale, high-efficiency power generation, particularly suited to the needs of oil and gas operations. This configuration links two LM2500+G4 gas turbines with a single steam turbine in a combined cycle layout—capturing waste heat from the gas turbines to produce steam and generate additional power. This approach significantly improves overall thermal efficiency while maintaining operational flexibility.

The Single Annular Combustor (SAC) with optional water injection helps the system meet emissions rules while keeping combustion stable and efficient. The LM2500+G4 improves on the previous +G4 model by increasing airflow, using better materials, and adding improved cooling. This allows it to produce about 10% more power without reducing the lifespan of critical hot parts. It can be equipped with either a two-stage or six-stage power turbine to fit different needs. Even with the higher power output, the +G4 keeps its modular, two-spool design, which makes maintenance easier and ensures reliable performance in many environments.

In the 2x1 configuration, the system delivers approximately 41% more power than a single gas turbine unit. The use of combined cycle technology ensures better fuel utilization, helping to reduce overall emissions and lower lifecycle operating costs.

The LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Combined Cycle 2x1 offers higher power, improved efficiency, and a flexible design, making it well-suited for large-scale oil and gas operations that demand reliable and efficient power generation. Its “50Hz” designation means the turbine is specifically optimized to supply electricity to grids operating at 50 cycles per second, ensuring seamless integration with regional power systems.

The 2-cup Fuel Nozzle is a precision-engineered component used in gas turbines, specifically in the oil and gas industry. Its primary function is to inject liquid fuel into the combustion chamber in a fine, atomized spray, allowing for optimal mixing with air and efficient ignition. This ensures stable combustion, better fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions—key performance factors in industrial turbine applications.

The “2-cup” design refers to the nozzle’s dual flow passages, which help balance fuel distribution across the combustion zone. This promotes more uniform flame stability and lowers the risk of hot spots that can cause thermal stress to the turbine hardware. The nozzle is typically used on “base” engines and is suited for continuous-duty operations.

The L47197P05 variant is known for its compatibility with LM2500 turbine configurations and is built to endure harsh operating environments. It features durable materials and a design that withstands high temperatures and pressures commonly found in oil and gas turbine systems.

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.

The Packing O-Ring is a sealing made from durable fluorocarbon rubber, designed for use in high-temperature and chemically harsh environments. Commonly used in gas turbines such as the LM2500 series, it provides a tight seal between components to prevent the leakage of fluids or gases.

This O-ring has an inside diameter of 27/64 inches, a thickness of 5/64 inches, and a hardness of 75 Shore A. It is built to handle operating temperatures from -20°F to 400°F, making it suitable for sealing joints in systems exposed to fuels, oils, and high pressures.

Its compact size and resistance to compression set and fluid exposure make it ideal for use in shafts, housings, and valve assemblies where reliable sealing is critical to turbine performance and safety.

The LM2500 Gas Generator is the core component of the LM2500 gas turbine, responsible for producing the high-energy gas flow needed to drive the power turbine.
