The expansion cost AED 1,527 billion and added new generating units with a capacity of 700MW. The extension design has a 90% fuel efficiency rate. This project has been completed with over 20 million Safe Man Hours without Lost Time Injury.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Al Tayer thanked DEWA\u2019s partners, especially Siemens, which implemented the project and Mott MacDonald, the project consultant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThe completion of the Jebel Ali M-Station expansion marks another milestone in the long history of Siemens and DEWA as strategic partners. It\u2019s a testament to what we can achieve with innovation and technology to support society and economic growth in the UAE,\u201d said Dietmar Siersdorfer, CEO, Siemens Middle East and UAE.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Before the extension, M-Station generated 2,185MW of electricity from 6 Siemens F-model gas turbines, each with a capacity of 255MW, 6 Doosan Waste-Heat Recovery Boilers for steam generation, 3 Alstom steam turbines with a capacity of 218MW each. The Project included construction of 16 fuel-oil storage tanks, each with a capacity of 20,000 cubic metres and totalling 320,000 cubic metres of fuel-oil storage. The station generated 140 MIGD from 8 Fisia desalination units, deploying Multi-Stage Flash (MSF) distillation technology, each with a capacity of 17.5 MIGD and two dual-fuel-fired auxiliary boilers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\"> The expansion project comprises of two dual-fuel gas turbine generators each with a capacity of 263.5 MW, two Waste Heat-Recovery Boilers for steam generation and a back pressure steam turbine from Siemens with capacity of 173 MW. The expansion\u2019s design increased the plant\u2019s fuel efficiency to 85.8%, which is one of the highest rates worldwide.
