1. GENERAL
1.1 Scope
This General Specification defines requirements and gives recommendations for gas
turbines, based on “Gas Turbines for the Petroleum, Chemical, and Gas Industry Services”
API Standard 616, 5th edition.
This Specification amends and supplements various clauses of API 616. Furthermore, it
summarizes (highlights) some important clauses of API 616.
With respect to API 616, paragraphs are marked as follows:
­ clause added to API 616;
™ clause that modifies API 616;
y clause that makes a decision, as required by API 616;
9 clause that summarizes the corresponding API 616 clause.
When input by Company is required for the specific Project, it is marked as follows: (Í).

1.2 Terms and Definitions


­ The “Company” is the party that initiates the project and ultimately pays for its design
and construction. The Company will generally specify the technical requirements.
­ The “Contractor” is the party that carries out all or part of the design, engineering,
procurement, installation, and commissioning or management of a project or operation
of a facility. The Company may sometimes undertake all or part of the duties of the
Contractor, e.g. when the Company awards the Contract directly to the Manufacturer.
­ The “Manufacturer” is the party that manufactures the gas turbine and performs the
design, engineering, procurement, installation, commissioning and management of the
gas turbine package, procuring other components from Sub-suppliers.
­ The “Sub-supplier” is the party that manufactures or supplies equipment and services to
perform the duties specified by the Manufacturer, typically sub-systems and
components of the main equipment.
­ The contractual structure may be one of the following:
o Company → (EPC) Contractor → Manufacturer → Sub-suppliers, or
o Company → (EPC) Contractor=Manufacturer → Sub-suppliers
­ The “gas turbine” comprises the turbo-machine and its auxiliary equipment (lube, seal,
control etc.).
­ The “gas turbine package”, in addition to the gas turbine, comprises: the inlet air
system, exhaust system, stack, enclosure, off-base equipment, all the valves,
instrumentation and the interconnecting piping that form a complete and self-sufficient
unit that needs fuel, utility fluids and electrical power to operate.
­ The “Project”, as related to requirements, indicates those set by the Company in the
specific Project documentation.
­ The word “shall” indicates a requirement.
­ The word “should” indicates a recommendation.
­ “Base load” is the continuous power developed by the gas turbine when it is operated at
the firing temperature (TIT) defined by the Manufacturer for lifetime optimized
operation. This condition corresponds to the 100% load.
­ “Peak load” also known as “maximum continuous load” is the continuous power
developed by the gas turbine when it is operated at the firing temperature (TIT) defined
eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN
Rev. 2 Sep-2013
exploration & production division
Sh. 6 of 43

by the Manufacturer for power optimized operation. This load setting reduces the life of
the hot gas path parts.
™ “ISO-rated power” is the shaft power developed at 15 °C ambient temperature, 1013.25
mbar atmospheric pressure and 60% relative humidity, with zero inlet and exhaust
pressure losses.
­ “Gas turbine-generator required power” is the net power output (at generator terminals)
that is required of the gas turbine-generator package in a power generation application.
This power is specified by the Company.
­ “Driven equipment required power” is the maximum power required by the driven
equipment (compressor or pump) in a mechanical drive application.
™ “Site rated power” is the shaft power developed by the gas turbine when it is operated
in a new and unfouled condition, at site conditions of air inlet temperature, air inlet
pressure, exhaust back pressure, reference fuel composition and with a base load
setting. The rated power satisfies the specified margin over the gas turbine-generator
required power – in case of power generation application – or the driven equipment
required power – in case of mechanical drive. The site rated power is the gas turbine
net power output (after subtracting the gas turbine auxiliaries loads from the gross
power output). The rated power is specified by the Manufacturer.
9 “Potential maximum power” is the expected power capability when the gas turbine is
operated at maximum allowable firing temperature, rated speed or under other limiting
conditions as defined by the Manufacturer and within the range of specified site values.

eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN
Rev. 2 Sep-2013
exploration & production division
Sh. 16 of 43

provide for the planned and systematic control of all quality-related activities performed

6. BASIC DESIGN
6.1 General
­ Contractor shall not propose prototypes or modified gas turbine models.
y The output-shaft operating speed range of gas turbine units for mechanical-drive
applications shall be as specified on the datasheets. Where only one operating speed
is specified for an application, the speed range for single-shaft machines shall be 25%
(from 80% to 105% of rated speed), and the speed range for two or more shaft
machines shall be 55% (from 50% to 105% of rated speed).
™ Gas turbine units shall be designed for continuous service at each point of the specified
speed range and power range including potential maximum power. The Manufacturer
shall define the period between major overhauls when operating on reference gas fuel,
at base load.
9 The gas turbine design shall accommodate transient thermal gradients following
tripouts and shall permit immediate restarting subject to the driven equipment
restrictions. Gas turbine cold-start and hot-start restrictions shall be defined in the
proposal. The Company shall agree with the Manufacturer on consequences if the
restrictions must be exceeded.
y The equipment, including all auxiliaries, shall be suitable for operation under the
environmental conditions specified by the Company in the data sheets (Í). These
conditions shall include whether the installation is indoors (heated or unheated) or
outdoors (with or without a roof), maximum and minimum temperatures, unusual
humidity, and dusty or corrosive conditions. The unit and its auxiliaries shall be suitable
for shipment and installation under the specified conditions.
­ Industrial gas turbines (also known as heavy duty) shall be the preferred choice over
aeroderivative gas turbines for installations where mass and available space are not
limited. Also if the gas turbine fuel is a crude oil, residual fuel oil, very lean gas, refinery
mix gas or a gas that is subject to variations of the Wobbe Index of more than 10%,
then industrial gas turbines shall be selected. Aeroderivatives may be used for peaking
units in power generation.
eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN
Rev. 2 Sep-2013
exploration & production division
Sh. 17 of 43

­ For mechanical drive applications with large speed variations (70% to 100%), a gas
generator with power turbine configuration should be the preferred choice. For power
generation, a single-shaft industrial gas turbine should be selected, due to the
frequency stability granted by its greater inertia, its simplicity and easier maintainability
A single-shaft gas turbine with a variable speed drive for mechanical drive applications
should not be the first choice.

6.2 Design Life


9 The equipment (including auxiliaries) covered by this Specification shall be designed
and constructed for a minimum service life of 20 years and at least 3 years of
uninterrupted operation. It is recognized that this is a design criterion and that hot
section inspections may be required; however, the required time between inspections
shall be no less than 8000 operating hours. The 8000-hour requirement applies to
base-loaded machines using sweet, dry gas fuel that meets manufacturer’s
specifications. The Contractor shall supply the service life and minimum uninterrupted
operation interval based on each specific application. The maintenance procedure
necessary to achieve these intervals shall also be supplied. For aeroderivative gas
turbines, the time required for intrusive (requiring parts removal) inspections shall be no
less than 12,000 operating hours. Nonintrusive inspections, e.g. those requiring the use
of a boroscope may be more frequent as required by the Manufacturer.
­ The equipment (including auxiliaries) shall be designed for maximum reliability and
availability.
­ For the purpose of establishing the total cost of ownership over the design life of the
equipment, the Contractor shall provide reliability and life cycle data, such as:
• Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF);
• Mean Time to Repair (MTTR);
• Mean Time Between Overhauls (MTBO);
• Mean Time to Overhaul (MTTO);

6.3 Performance
­ The Company required power at site conditions shall be attained with a base load
setting. The peak load setting shall not be considered to meet the power requirement.
­ Power-augmentation solutions, such as evaporative cooling, adsorption chilling, fogging
or water injection, should not be employed to meet the Company required power, due
to their operation and maintenance complexity, their requirement for water treatment
facilities and their water consumption.
™ The gas turbine shall be designed to provide site-rated power with no negative
tolerance in the new and unfouled condition. The gas turbine rating shall be based on
Manufacturer's actual experience.
­ For mechanical drive applications, the gas turbine shall be selected to have, at site
conditions and in the new and unfouled condition, a shaft power output at base load of
at least 110% of the driven equipment demand, inclusive of the load gear, if present,
and considering inlet and outlet systems losses. This power margin takes into account
the unrecoverable gas turbine losses (aging and compressor fouling) and the driven
equipment power margin.
­ For power generation applications, the gas turbine generator package shall be selected
to have, at site conditions and in the new and unfouled condition, a net output (at
generator terminals) at base load of at least 105% of the Company required power.
This power margin takes into account the unrecoverable gas turbine losses (aging and
compressor fouling).
eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN
Rev. 2 Sep-2013
exploration & production division
Sh. 18 of 43

­ For power generation applications, the Contractor shall provide in the proposal the gas
turbine operational restrictions as to:
o the maximum positive/negative load step;
o the maximum positive/negative load gradient.
­ For mechanical drive applications, Company shall make available to the Contractor all
expected operating points because the maximum torque required from the gas turbine
driver will not necessarily be at maximum power or speed.(Í)

6.4 Pressure Casings


™ Casings shall be designed or suitable guarding shall be provided to contain all blade-off
events and the subsequent collateral damage, but not disk burst or overhung shaft
failure.

6.5 Combustor and Fuel Nozzles


9 The Contractor shall indicate the capabilities of the proposed combustion system by
advising maximum and minimum and the maximum allowable rate of change of the
Wobbe index.
™ Fuel nozzles shall be selected based on the fuel type and composition specified by the
Company. The Manufacturer shall guarantee that the selected nozzles can withstand
coking and fouling by combustion products and will not require servicing between
scheduled shutdowns.
™ Dual-fuel nozzles shall be provided with an air purge system: a) to prevent liquid fuel
from entering the gas fuel nozzles of the combustion chamber during liquid fuel
operation; b) to purge the liquid fuel nozzles of the combustion chamber during gas fuel
operation. The air supply should be taken from the turbine air compressor bleed
system.

6.6 Rotating Elements


­ On gas turbines for power generation, rotors shall be mechanically designed to
withstand the torque produced by the generator during a short circuit. The torque
considered shall be at least 6 times the full-load torque. Out-of-phase synchronization
shall also be considered in the mechanical design.
9 Gas generator rotors and rotors of single-shaft gas turbines shall be mechanically
designed to safely withstand momentary speeds up to 110 % of the gas turbine trip
speed settings throughout the Manufacturer-defined firing temperature range. The
Manufacturer shall state in the proposal any inspections that would be required, before
restart, after such momentary overspeed conditions have occurred.
9 In the event of an instantaneous loss of 100 % of site rated load and the driven inertia,
gas turbine rotors must be capable of safe operation without the blades, disks, or shafts
fracturing or separating as a result of the ensuing overspeed. The Manufacturer shall
state in the proposal any inspections or maintenance required before restart when
overspeed excursions exceed the normal overspeed trip limits.
­ When the air compressor corrosion is foreseen due to the site operating conditions, the
air compressor rotor and stator blades shall be either made of a non-corroding material
or shall have a non-corroding coating.
9 The blade natural frequencies shall not coincide with any source of excitation from 10%
below minimum governed speed to 10% above maximum continuous speed. If this is
not feasible, blade stress levels developed at any specified driven equipment operation
shall be low enough to allow unrestricted operation for the minimum service life defined
in Section 6.2. “Design Life”. Blades shall be designed to withstand operation at
resonant frequencies during normal warm-up. The Manufacturer shall state in the
eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN
Rev. 2 Sep-2013
exploration & production division
Sh. 19 of 43

proposal the speeds below the operation range corresponding to such blade
resonances.

6.7 Dynamics
9 Resonances of structural support systems that are within the Contractor’s scope of
supply and that affect the rotor vibration amplitude shall not occur within the specified
operating speed range or the specified separation margins.
9 The Contractor shall communicate the existence of any undesirable running speeds in
the range from zero to trip speed. A list of all undesirable speeds from zero to trip shall
be submitted to the Company for its review and included in the instruction manual.
y The effects of other equipment in the train shall be included in the damped unbalanced
response analysis (that is, a train lateral analysis shall be performed). In particular, this
analysis should be considered for machinery trains with rigid couplings.
y For gas turbine-driven units, the Contractor shall ensure that a torsional vibration
analysis of the complete coupled train is carried out and shall be responsible for
directing any modifications necessary to meet the requirements of clauses 4.7.3.1
through 4.7.3.6 of API 616.
9 The torsional natural frequencies of the complete train shall be at least 10% above or
10% below any possible excitation frequency within the specified operating speed
range (from minimum to maximum continuous speed).
9 In addition to the torsional analyses required in clauses 4.7.3.2 through 4.7.3.5 of API
616, the Manufacturer shall perform a transient torsional vibration analysis for turbine
driven trains containing generators or helper/start motors, using a time-transient
analysis. The requirements of clauses 4.7.3.6.1 through 4.7.3.6.3 of API 616 shall be
followed.
­ High-speed balancing shall not be performed, due to the fact that rotors that require
high speed balancing to achieve vibration limits during test will likely require field
balancing.
9 The vibration criteria provided in ISO 7919-4 and ISO 10816-4 apply to industrial gas
turbine sets used in electrical and mechanical drive applications per API 616 covering
the power range above 1 MW and a speed range under load between 3000 RPM and
25000 RPM. Aeroderivative gas turbines (including gas turbines with dynamic
properties similar to those of aeroderivatives but not free power turbines) are excluded
from this vibration criteria.
­ On gas turbines for power generation, the gas turbine design should ensure the
absence of turbine-generator torsional modes of vibration close to 60Hz and 120Hz, or
50Hz and 100Hz, for 60Hz and 50Hz transmission systems respectively, to avoid
torsional interaction with the electrical transmission system due to network switching
and other events (e.g. faults, line switching, load rejection etc.).
­ On gas turbines for power generation, an analysis to identify potential torsional
subsynchronous resonance (SSR) conditions shall be undertaken by the Contractor
when the power plant is connected to a series capacitor-compensated transmission
system. Due to physical and economical limitations, components exposed to these
conditions cannot be manufactured to withstand such torsional stress at resonance
conditions. Protective and/or preventive measures must therefore be employed to limit
the SSR effects. Protective measures, like protection relays, and preventive measures
like static filter, active filter or excitation system damper shall be agreed between the
Company and the Contractor.
­ On gas turbines for power generation, an analysis to identify potential device
dependent subsynchronous oscillations (DDSO) shall be undertaken by the Contractor
when fast acting control loops are present on large power electronic devices such as
high-voltage dc (HVDC) converter stations or on GTG’s themselves. This phenomenon
is due to control interactions and is not a resonance phenomenon. Thus the solution is
eni spa 03774.MAC.MEC.FUN

exploration & production division
Sh. 20 of 43

in proper tuning of the controls and or introduction of filtering and supplemental


damping controls.

6.8 Bearings and Bearing Housings


9 The Manufacturer shall provide their standard bearing design and include bearing
description in the proposal. Hydrodynamic radial and thrust bearings are preferred. It is
recognized, however, that certain classes of gas turbines are designed to use rolling
element bearings.
9 Bearings shall have sufficient ultimate load capability to withstand forces resulting from
failure of any turbine component that requires immediate shutdown (such as loss of a
blade or bucket) in order to prevent excessive secondary damage to the turbine.
9 Bearings shall be selected to meet an L10 rated life of 50,000 hours continuous
operation at ISO continuous rating conditions and 32,000 hours at maximum axial and
radial loads and rated speed. The basic rating L10 life shall be calculated in accordance
with ISO 281:2007.
9 Hydrodynamic thrust bearings shall be selected such that under any operating condition
the load does not exceed 50 % of the bearing manufacturer’s ultimate load rating at site
rated power.
9 Hydrodynamic thrust bearings and radial bearings shall be fitted with bearing metal
temperature sensors installed in accordance with API 670.

6.9 Lubrication & Control Oil System


­ Lube & control oil systems shall comply with API Std 614.

simultaneously operating.
­ An emergency DC pump shall be provided to ensure that oil is cooled down after shut
down. The UPS and battery system supplied by the Manufacturer shall feed the
emergency DC pump for the duration of the post lube cycle.

other system where this may lead to danger. Where this may occur, additional safety
devices shall be fitted to prevent reverse flow. Appropriate precautions shall be taken to
ensure that liquid fuels cannot enter the gas fuel system where gas fuel is used to
purge the liquid fuel burners. Where only a single fuel can be fired at any one time,
interlocks shall be provided to ensure that the standby fuel system cannot operate or is
isolated. Where more than one fuel can be fired at any one time, it shall be assured that
excess energy input due to overfuelling cannot occur in the gas turbine.
