1. Background/Objective of the Project

For the people in Iraq, the Iraqi government at its maximum effort has been rehabilitating, building

and upgrading the infrastructures which were destructed or exhausted in the periods of the wars and

economic sanction since such periods ended. The power sector is one of those infrastructures which

are essential for the life of Iraqi people and is needed to be improved immediately.

As for the electricity situation, it is estimated that the power demand will be reached 30,000MW in

2020 from 20,000MW in 2015.

As one of solutions to enhance the power supply, the Ministry of Electricity, Iraq (MOE) plans to

convert the existing simple cycle gas turbine (SCGT) power stations to the combined cycle gas

turbine (CCGT) power stations, which is called the Add-On project (Add-On Project). Based on

this, in May 2015, MOEs expectation for the feasibility study for the Add-On Project was shown.

In this study, one site was selected for Add-On Project with the consideration of suitability and

priority of three (3) candidate sites (i.e. Amara, Nasiriyah and Najibiyah) through the meeting. And

the feasibility study of Add-On Project for selected gas turbine power station was carried out.

2. Financial Situation in Iraq

Iraqi Government has currently faced financial stringency because of the less national budget due to

the slump of crude oil price and the increase of costs/expenses for cleaning operation by Iraqi army

against terrorism (called by themselves as Islamic State for Iraq and Syria ISIS).

The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) decided to provide Iraq with

financial supports. However, those financial supports are not enough and each ministry in the Iraqi

Government has to find out appropriate solutions to cover such situation.

3. Outline of Add-On Project

Basic Concept:

The principle of the combined-cycle is firstly to recover the exhausted gas and generate the

steam by the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) and secondly to combine the steam and

generate the electricity by the steam turbine generator (STG). After completing the gas turbine

cycle (simple cycle), the temperature of the exhausted gas from the gas turbine which is wasted

in the simple cycle is still high enough to generate the steam. By recycling this exhausted gas,

the overall net efficiency of the combined-cycle may achieve at more than 50% from the

simple-cycle at around 35%-40%. This recycling of the waste entropy can expand the power

S-4

capacity without increasing the fuel consumption and the environmental load. Especially, to add

the HRSG and STG on the existing/operating simple-cycle power plant is called Add-On also

known as repowering or bottoming.

Site Selection:

The study has initially considered three (3) potential sites where the gas turbines are already

installed or planned to be installed in simple cycle and one of them could be converted to a

combined cycle plant.

Three sites proposed by MOE of Add-On

Site Amara Nasiriyah Najibiyah

Governorate Missan Thi Qar Basrah

Gas Turbines number 4 units x 125 MW 4 units x 125 MW 4 units x 125 MW

Simple Cycle PS In operation Planned, Not started In operation

Note: All three (3) sites utilize four (4) gas turbines of General Electric (GE) make, Frame 9 E type

or plan to install.

S-5

Location of Candidate Gas Turbine Power Station

The power stations at Amara and Najibiyah have been completed and the gas turbines in simple cycle

mode are in commercial operation. At Nasiriyah site, the gas turbines have not been yet installed

however the EPC contractor has been selected and the installation works are expected to commence in

early 2016 and be completed in 25 months from thereafter.

The site of Najibiyah has been ruled out for Add-On because there is no extra land available for

accommodating the equipment needed for the conversion into combined cycle. As the sites of

Nasiriyah and Amara have adequate extra land and they have been compared. The site of Nasiriyah

has been selected for this study because of the vicinity of the river water (Euphrates) which ensures

availability of the water to the power station, in the required quantity and with lower pumping costs.

- Site : Nasiriyah area in Thi Qar Governorate

- Capacity : 500MW (4 x 125MW, to be installed) + 250MW (by this project)

- Main Fuel : Natural Gas (will be available in 2018)

Nasiriyah site will have four (4) GTGs of about 125 MW ISO rating, this report describes feasibility

study of the 4/4/1x1 configuration with the consent of MOE in consideration with the EPC cost and

the combined cycle efficiency.

4. Implementation Schedule

The implementation of the Add-On Project is envisaged to start once the simple cycle gas turbine

power station is completed, as follows. The Project Implementation Time Schedule (Base) is

attached.

Simple cycle gas turbine power station poject starts in early 2016, lasts 25 months and end in first

quarter of 2018

The Add-On Project will start at 2nd

quarter of 2018 and last 33 months therefore will be

completed by end of 2020

As alternative, upon MOEs request, another implementation schedule has been studied in order to

anticipate the Add-On Project early completion. The Project Implementation Time Schedule

(Alternative) is attached.

The concept is to start some engineering and procurement activities of the Add-On Project 3

months ahead of the simple cycle gas turbine power station completion.

Technology Advantages of Japanese Companies

The main purpose of the Add-On project is to increase the output comparing with simple cycle and

to achieve the higher efficiency to reduce the fuel consumption. In this regards, Japanese leading

equipment companies have many experiences to optimize the steam cycle in accordance with

specific condition such as in Iraq and to develop the equipment model. Moreover, the utilization of

steam exhaust from existing Gas Turbine efficiently is one of the important parts of which many

Japanese leading equipment companies including companies who do not manufacture Gas Turbine

have accumulated their technology for a long time. Therefore, Japanese leading equipment

companies are expected to contribute a lot toward optimization of model and cycle like this project.

5. Conclusion

The electricity demand in Iraq has been rapidly increasing however the electricity supply has not met

such demand. Considering the situation in Iraq and current circumstances around MOE, it is

understood that the Add-On project for Nasiriyah Gas Turbine Power Station is very appropriate

solution because this is the project which is possible to realize and materialize under the current

situation and circumstances in Iraq. Furthermore, consideration of utilization of JBIC buyers credit

scheme + EPC is expected because the construction cost as EPC basis can be economical than IPP

basis.

1. Electricity Sector

1-1. General:

Electricity Sector of Iraq is governed by Electricity Law. Ministry of Electricity (MOE) is engaged

in operation of whole of electrical power system from generation, transmission, distribution and

collection of electricity bill from the consumers.

The organization chart of MOE is as shown in Figure 1-1 below. As of January 2016 Mr. Qassim

Mohammed Fahdawi is the Minister of MOE.

(Figure 1-1 / Organization Chart of MOE)

(Source: MOE)

1-2. Electricity Supply and Demand:

The actual generation output at the end of 2013 was around 11,000MW against the demand

16,000MW. In 2013, the electricity supply form the national grid to Iraqi people was around 16

hours per day.

And, it was increased up to around 12,000MW in 2014, however it is expected that the demand in

2018 will be over 20,000MW.

1-3. Power Stations:

The design capacity of the power station in the whole county in 2013 was around 22,000MW which

are steam (6,000MW), gas (11,700MW), Hydro (1,800MW) and Diesel (2,400MW). According to

MOEs explanation in the Iraqi Power Conference in London in June 2014, it is expected to add

17,000MW until 2018 by followings and accordingly the total design capacity will be around

2. Current Circumstances MOE has faced

2-1. Lack of Budget

The national budget of Iraq heavily relies on the amount and its price of exporting of crude oil

because around 90% of national revenue is come from the revenue of exporting of crude oil. The

Table 1-2 shows the national budget of Iraq and the planed oil price/export volume.

1-4

Due to trend of decreasing of oil price recently, the amount of national budget is very much

negatively affected and the allocation of yearly budget to ministries for reconstruction and

development projects has been decreased accordingly. As reference, the oil price as of January 2016

is around USD30 BPD.

2-2. Unstable Security Situation

In June 2014, Iraq was attacked by terrorism (called by themselves as Islamic State for Iraq and

Syria ISIS) and some cities in northwestern area of Iraq were occupied and controlled by them.

Iraqi army has been conducting cleaning operations against ISIS continuously and succeeded to push

them back in some areas, however threat and attacks by ISIS have been continuing unfortunately.

Because of those situations, Iraqi Government is obliged to spend huge amount to sweep ISIS, and

the budget for rehabilitation, reconstruction and development projects in the country was very much

decreased, which also makes further delay of necessary planned reconstruction projects in current

and future. The Figure 1-2 shows the control of terrain in Iraq as of November 2015.

2-3. Financial Situation in Iraq

As mentioned above, Iraqi Government has suffered two kinds of negative impact and has been

facing the situation of financial stringency at the moment. Therefore, in order to cover the negative

financial situation, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) decided to provide

the country with financial supports. However those financial supports are not enough and each

ministry is in the situation that ministry cannot implement by Iraqi national budget and they have to

find out suitable solutions such as utilizing foreign finance arranged by foreign institutes on their

reconstruction and development projects to be proceeded with the implementation of the necessary

projects.

3. Gas Turbine Power Stations in South of Iraq

3-1. Gas Turbine Power Station

The table 1-3 shows the list of existing / planned gas turbine power stations in south of Iraq which

3.1 Background and Objective

For the people in Iraq, the Iraqi government at its maximum effort has been rehabilitating, building

and upgrading the infrastructures which were destructed or exhausted in the periods of the wars and

economic sanction since such periods ended. The power sector is one of those infrastructures which

are essential for the life of Iraqi people and is needed to be improved immediately.

The Ministry of Electricity, Iraq (MOE) has been executing a lot of projects which rehabilitate

and newly install the power stations, substations, transmission lines, distribution lines and other

necessary projects to increase the power supply resources and provide enough electricity for all

through the country.

As one of solutions to enhance the power supply, MOE plans to convert the existing simple cycle

gas turbine (SCGT) power stations to the combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power stations.

The principle of the combined-cycle is firstly to recover the exhausted gas and generate the steam

by the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) and secondly to combine the steam and generate

the electricity by the steam turbine generator (STG). After completing the gas turbine cycle

(simple cycle), the temperature of the exhausted gas from the gas turbine which is wasted in the

simple cycle is still high enough to generate the steam. By recycling this exhausted gas, the overall

net efficiency of the combined-cycle may achieve at more than 50% from the simple-cycle at

around 35%-40%. This recycling of the waste enthalpy can expand the power capacity without

increasing the fuel consumption and the environmental load. Especially, to add the HRSG and STG

on the existing/operating simple-cycle power station is called Add-On also known as repowering

or bottoming.

MOE has purchased total 72 units equal to 10,442MW of gas turbines from General Electric

(GE) and Siemens that is called the Mega Deal. More than 90% of the Mega Deal gas turbines

have been already installed as the simple cycle power stations by the end of 2015.

Based on the conceptual plan of the combined cycle conversion mentioned above, MOE has been

discussing with the IPP developers to realize the projects. However, it is assumed that the total cost

in IPP paid by MOE as tariff should exceed the total cost in investing by MOEs own for EPC even

though MOE would utilize the foreign finance on the projects. Therefore it is highly recommended

to MOE that MOE would consider the EPC to be financed by foreign institutes (EPC+Finance)

besides the IPP as alternative. As the recommendation of the EPC+Finance, in May 2015, MOEs

expectation for the feasibility study for the Add-On project (Add-On Project) was shown.

3-3

MOE had provisionally shortlisted three (3) sites in the south region of Iraq where SCGT power

stations either exists or are planned, out of which one of the most suitable sites to be converted to a

CCGT power station. Among three (3) candidate sites, Nasiriyah (Thi Qar Governorate) has been

selected by the discussion with MOE for this feasibility study.

Under this Add-On Project, individual HRSG will be installed behind each of the existing gas

turbines. The exhaust from each gas turbine will be led to the HRSG via individual diverter damper

installed in by pass stack. The proposed arrangement will allow simple cycle as well as combined

cycle operation of the plant. The diverter dampers along with the guillotine dampers for all four (4)

gas turbines shall be installed for safe maintenance of the HRSG while the gas turbine is operating in

simple cycle mode. The HRSG will be of horizontal design employing natural circulated evaporator

sections. The HRSG comprises of HP and LP drums together with respective economisers,

evaporators and super- heaters.

Steam from the four (4) HRSGs will be connected to one (1) number HP/LP steam turbine having

down flow exhaust arrangement exhausting the steam into a water cooled condenser (WCC), thus

constituting an Add-On Block of 4-4-1 configuration.

Generator of steam turbine will be connected to a dedicated step-up transformer for power

evacuation at 400kV level using existing 400kV GIS.

3.2 Contents and Technical feasibility

3.2.1 Site Selection

The study has initially considered three (3) potential sites where the gas turbines are already installed

or planned to be installed in simple cycle and one of them could be converted to a combined cycle

plant:

Table-1: Three sites proposed by MOE of Add-On

Governorate Missan Thi Qar Basrah

Gas Turbines number 4 units x 125 MW 4 units x 125 MW 4 units x 125 MW

Simple Cycle PS In operation Planned, Not started In operation

All three (3) sites utilize four (4) gas turbines of GE make, Frame 9 E type or plan to install.

The power stations at Amara and Najibiyah have been completed and the gas turbines in simple cycle

mode are in commercial operation. At Nasiriyah site, the gas turbines have not been yet installed

however the EPC contractor has been selected and the installation works are expected to commence

in early 2016 and be completed in 25 months from thereafter.

The site of Najibiyah has been ruled out for Add-On because there is no extra land available for

accommodating the equipment needed for the conversion into combined cycle. The sites of Nasiriyah

and Amara have adequate extra land and they have been compared with following terms:

The site of Nasiriyah has been selected because of the vicinity of the river water (Euphrates) which

ensures availability of the water to the Power Station, in the required quantity and with lower

pumping costs.

Furthermore the time schedule expected for the implementation of the SCGT power stations in

Nasiriyah site (25 months) allows to put in place all necessary arrangements, such like financing,

proposal and signing of the EPC contract, for starting the Add-On project in timely and smooth

manner. So the Power Station can be phased in 2 consecutive steps: the simple cycle and then its

conversion to combined cycle.

3.2.2 Existing Facilities

Currently the simple cycle power station at Nasiriyah has not been installed yet however four (4) gas

turbines have been already purchased and kept in the warehouse. The EPC contractor for installing

four (4) gas turbines and generators in simple cycle and providing the associated auxiliary systems

has been selected. The EPC works are expected to start in the early months of 2016 and last for a

period of 25 months.

The SCGT Power Station is designed with four (4) GE gas turbines and generators Frame 9E (MS

9001EA), outdoor installation type, having Non Dry Low Nox (Non-DLN) combustors with

capabilities to fire crude oil as main fuel, light distillate oil and natural gas as back-up. The natural

3-7

gas, although currently not available, is planned by the Ministry of Oil, Iraq (MOO) to be brought

at site at beginning of year 2018.

The SCGT power station will also have common and auxiliary systems as briefly described here

below:

Fuel facilities include an unloading station for light diesel oil, storage tanks and fuel forwarding

system for both crude oil & light diesel oil. Fuel gas station is also envisaged with all necessary

equipment for conditioning of gas before firing in the gas turbine combustors.

Raw water to the plant is supplied from the Euphrates River. Water treatment and storage facilities

include: pre-treatment of the river water with clarification and sludge removal. Reverse osmosis and

EDI type water treatment plant for demineralized water supply for SCGT consumers and water

injection in gas turbine combustors. Service water, fire water and potable water system also

envisaged for plant usage. Effluents treatment and sewage treatment are installed for treatment of

waste water and plant sewage respectively.

Other mechanical systems considered are compressed air, firefighting system and auxiliary boiler.

Electrical power evacuation is by means of four (4) step-up transformers one each for each gas

turbine, 400 kV and 132 kV gas insulated switchgears (GIS) located indoors. Electrical power

distribution has unit auxiliary transformers (UAT), MV power distribution system, LV power

distribution system, emergency power supply system and emergency diesel generator.

Gas turbines are installed outdoor having their own compartments/enclosures. The SCGT power

station includes central electrical and control building, GIS buildings, administration building, fire

station, canteen, warehouse, bachelor house and workshop building.

3.2.3 Combined Cycle Configuration

The conversion of a SCGT power station to a CCGT power station is realized by adding the HRSG

that utilizes the heat of the exhaust gases for generating steam which is utilized in operating a steam

turbine and generator to generate electricity.

The steam from each HRSG can be connected to four sets of smaller sized steam turbines or the

steam output from each of the four HRSGs can be combined together to supply the steam to a

common piping header which then feeds one larger sized steam turbine. The way the GTG/HRSG

3-8

units are grouped in order to supply steam to the steam turbine and the number of steam turbine

determine the configuration of the combined cycle.

In consideration with the following advantages, the 4/4/1x1 configuration mentioned below will be

more recommendable in this feasibility study than the 2/2/1x2 configuration mentioned below.

Advantages of the 4/4/1 configuration:

The bigger capacity STG unit has better efficiency than 2 STG of smaller capacity for the same steam parameters.

Lower capital costs due to saving on the cost of the steam turbine and generator, their foundation and STG building, step up transformer, electrical power distribution equipments

and cabling.

Suitable for base load

The plot area requirement is less (the available site area in Nasiriyah is limited).

Reduced construction area during the construction at site.

4/4/1x1 configuration: 1 block comprising of four (4) gas turbines, four (4) heat recovery

steam generators and one (1) steam turbine generator.

2/2/1x2 configuration: 2 blocks each comprising of two ( 2) gas turbines, two (2) heat recovery

steam generators and one (1) steam turbine generator

As Nasiriyah site will have four (4) GTGs of about 125 MW ISO rating, this report describes

feasibility study of the 4/4/1x1 configuration with the consent of MOE.

3.2.4 Design Basis for the Add-On Project

The design conditions utilised for the Add-On project have been considered as follows:

3.2.4.1 Fuel

Main fuel considered for Add-On project is natural gas while crude oil and light fuel oil are back up

fuels.

This is because the fuel gas is expected to be available at Nasiriyah site in early 2018 and the cost of

the natural gas is expected to be lower than crude oil and light fuel oil. Further as per information

from MOE, the fuel gas is envisaged to be used as main fuel after 2018. Thus the Add-On project will

be starting the commissioning and the commercial operation with fuel gas.

condition was provided from MOE along with Generation development plan and 132kV substation

4-3

development plan. As from the unstableness of the Country, MOE was not able to provide a reliable

and detailed power system network of PSS/E data of the current 2015 condition. Depending of the

circumstances and from the MOE provided data, the condition of the Power System including that

of 2015, will be organize in this section.

3.1 Areas and Governorates in Iraq

Iraq is divided into 5 areas and 15 governorates (excluding the Kurdistan Region) as shown in

Table 3-1.

3.2 Power Network System in 2015

The PSS/E data of the 2020 Power System provided by MOE had some comment written of the

actual situation. The study team assumed the power system network of 2015 based on this comment.

The power system network in 2015 is shown Figure 3-1.

The power system network of Iraq in 2015 has 30 substations and the total length of 400kV

transmission lines approximately 4,900km.

3.3 Expansion of power system network

Figure 3-2 shows the power system network in 2020. The substation, power plant and transmission

line is particularly enhanced at middle southern area.

3.4 Demand and supply balance in 2020

By analyzing the network data of PSS/E provided by MOE the areal demand and supply balance

has been considered to be as shown in Table 3-2.

The total demand in 2020 is 28,541MW including transmission loss and station service power.

Middle area, of which the capital city is Baghdad, accounts for 35% of total demand, and Southern

area, which has the second largest city of the Country, Basra, accounts for 26%. Hence, Middle and

Southern areas account for about 60% of total demand.

Meanwhile, Middle and South areas have 31% and 25 % of total power generation over the country

29,037MW, respectively. Accordingly, the power is not transmitted between areas. The loss of

power system network on this demand and power generation situation is small.

3.5 Network system in 2020

The 400kV network has performed at the bulk power transmission system among areas and 132kV

network has played the role of local supply systems.

Figure 3-4 shows 400kV bulk power network as of 2020. 400kV transmission line are particularly

enhanced in the north-south direction. Mosul, Baghdad and Basra city is in this straight line.

The Iraqi power system has been interconnected with Iranian power system by a 400kV single

circuit transmission line at Diyala substation located in Upper Euphrates area.

3.6 Transmission line

Table 3-3 shows the 400kV transmission lines in 2020. The total length of 400kV transmission lines

reaches approximately 8,300km. This length is about two times of that of 2015.

The transmission line capacity of 400kV lines has 970MVA, 1000MVA and 2774MVA. According

to the PSS/E data, capacity of 2774MVA line is using a quad conductor. This quad conductor of

transmission line will be applied to the following section;

The Bismaya substation is installed of large capacity 500MVA transformer. This area is regarded as

an extending demand in the future.

The power system network of Iraq in 2020 has 51 substation and total capacity of the installed

transformer is 43,000MVA. New substations are planned to be built at 21 locations in 2016-2020.

3.8 Power Plant

The power plant development plan in Iraq prepared by MOE is shown in Table 3-5 and 3-6. The

study team made location map of the power plant development plan as shown in Figure 3-5 and

Figure 3-6. The total amount of the two plans is approximately 30,000MW of generator capacity.

The current demand planning is about 29,000MW in 2020, it was found to be sufficiently supplying

the demand with the new power plant and the existing power plant.

Construction or reinforcement of the power plant have been conducted mainly in Middle Euphrates

and Southern region.
