Payra 3600 MW LNG –To-Power Project

Project Details

The Government of Bangladesh has recognized that electricity supply is a major constraint on the plans for the country’s economic growth, particularly to progress with the expansion of manufacturing and export of goods at a competitive price on the international market, which require a low cost, reliable, and efficient power infrastructure. Both the PSMP 2010 as well as the PSMP 2016 identify the need to target long term energy diversification. As such, North-west Power Generating Company Limited (NWPGCL) has proposed to construct 3,600 MW Payra Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) at Dhankhali union in Kalapara upazila under Patuakhali District, Bangladesh.

The project consist of Two Siemens SGT5-8000H gas turbines directly coupled to an SGen5-2000P pressurized air-cooled generator; One SST5-5000 condensing steam turbine directly coupled to an SGen5-3000W water cooled generator; Two heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), Benson, Horizontal design; triple pressure with reheat; One modularized induced fan cooling tower using river water;

The plant will burn imported LNG. Two dedicated FSRUs (Floating storage and Re-gasification Units) will shuttle between the loading and offloading and off-loading point to supply compressed regasified LNG to the Power plant boundary through a dedicated [70km] gas pipeline.
