Benefits

  • 37.5% efficiency in mechanical drive; up to 84% thermal efficiency in combined heat and power
  • Flexible operation to 50% of rated speed; ideal in mechanical drive—can start with fully pressurized compressor
  • Lower maintenance costs and 35,000 hours MTBM—automapping eliminates seasonal DLN tuning and intermediate boroscopic inspections
Features

  • Rugged, high-performance axial flow compressor
  • Single-row annular combustion system for best-in-class low emissions and wide fuel flexibility
  • Highest efficiency over the entire power range thanks to variable-geometry low-pressure turbine nozzles technology
Applications

  • Onshore and offshore
  • Pipeline, gas storage
  • Industrial, and combined heat and power

The best from two worlds

NovaLT™16 gas turbines blend the robustness of our frame technologies with the modular maintenance capabilities of our aeroderivatives.

NovaLT16 Both Worlds

 

Extended maintenance plan

The NovaLT™16 gas turbine is designed for up to 35,000 hours mean time between maintenance (MTBM) without boroscope inspections, and targeting 24-hour engine swap. Real-time condition monitoring anticipates and helps prevent problems. If problems do occur, 24/7 product support service is available.

NovaLT16 Maintenance

 

DLN automapping

Thanks to automapping, dry low emission (DLN) tuning is required and performed only during commissioning (which is 90% faster than for a traditional system), and every four years thereafter via remote connection with our RM&D Centers.

 

Hydrogen for energy transition

NovaLT™16 gas turbines can burn up to 30% hydrogen in DLN mode, and we’re moving toward 100% H2 capability.
