Yokogawa Electric Corporation announces that its subsidiary, Yokogawa Middle East B.S.C.(c), has received orders to supply the control systems for two large combined cycle power plants that are under construction in Egypt. The CENTUM® VP integrated production control systems supplied by Yokogawa will be used to monitor and control the operation of facilities throughout these plants, including the gas turbines, exhaust gas heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), and steam turbines.
Key factors in the decision to purchase a Yokogawa control system for these new plants were Yokogawa's recent experience in providing the control systems for a total of five power plant projects in Egypt, including a large combined cycle power plant, and the company's technical knowledge and expertise in power plant control and automation.
Plans have been drawn up to construct many new power plants in Egypt to keep up with the country's rising demand for electric power. Yokogawa intends to capitalize on its success in winning these latest orders by making further inroads in the control business in Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East.
