The LM2500+ DLE in a 1x1 combined cycle configuration—one gas turbine, one heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and one steam turbine—delivers significantly higher efficiency, exceeding 50% in combined cycle mode.

Designed for high thermal efficiency, fast start capability, and reduced emissions, the LM2500 family is widely used across onshore and offshore environments, including industrial plants, pipeline stations, CHP systems, and utility-scale power production.

The DLE combustion system enables the LM2500+ to maintain low NOx and CO emissions without the need for water or steam injection—simplifying operations and reducing water-related maintenance.

Key features include:

• Triple annular combustor design for even temperature distribution and lower emissions across the power range
• Electrically actuated DLE fuel valves replacing traditional electro-hydraulic SAC valves for better control
• 75 pre-mixers in 30 external modules, creating a consistent lean fuel/air mixture
• NOx emissions ≤15–25 ppm and CO emissions ≤25 ppm (on natural gas, full load)

With fast ramp-up—achieving base load from cold start in under five minutes—the LM2500 is an ideal choice for fast-start and cycling applications. This performance makes it well suited to dynamic grid environments and industrial use cases requiring quick responsiveness.

The Bearing, Roller, Cylindrical No. 6R is a precision-engineered component used in LM2500 aero-derivative gas turbines commonly employed in the oil and gas sector. Installed at the No. 6R position, this cylindrical roller bearing supports the turbine’s rotor shaft by carrying radial loads and maintaining accurate shaft alignment during high-speed operation.

Its specialized roller design allows it to withstand intense mechanical stresses and thermal changes typical in demanding oil and gas environments. By reducing vibration and ensuring smooth rotation, the bearing contributes to stable and efficient turbine performance, which is critical for continuous operation in upstream, midstream, and downstream applications.

The No. 6R bearing’s role in maintaining precise shaft positioning supports the overall durability and reliability of LM2500 turbines used in gas compression, power generation, and offshore platforms, making it a key element in sustaining safe and efficient operations within the oil and gas industry.

The LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Simple Cycle is a fourth-generation aeroderivative gas turbine of the LM2500. Designed for industrial power applications, including those in the oil and gas sector, it delivers more output and greater thermal efficiency while retaining the ease of maintenance and high reliability the LM2500 series is known for.

In a simple cycle configuration, the gas turbine generates power directly by expanding hot gases through the turbine stages, without recovering heat for additional power generation. This design is favored for its simplicity, lower capital cost, faster start-up, and suitability for mobile or remote applications.

The LM2500+G4 improves upon its predecessor by increasing airflow and turbine cooling capacity, allowing for higher operating temperatures. These changes result in up to 40% thermal efficiency in simple cycle mode—an impressive figure for this class of turbine. This translates to improved fuel usage and reduced operational costs over time.

The engine features a Single Annular Combustor (SAC), which supports stable combustion with low emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO). The combustor is also designed for durability and long life, with easily replaceable fuel nozzles and a thermal barrier coating for resistance to high temperatures and corrosion.

Its two-spool design means the engine has no cold start limitations, making it well-suited for harsh or variable environments. The power turbine and gas generator can be separated, allowing for easier in-module repairs and less downtime.

Overall, the LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Simple Cycle offers a balance of power, efficiency, and maintainability, making it an attractive solution for power generation and mechanical drive needs in industrial, onshore, and offshore oil and gas operations.

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.
