We are GE Oil & GasOur people work on the things that matter in the oil and gas industry. In our labs and factories, and in the field, we constantly push the boundaries of technology to solve today’s toughest operational and commercial challenges.

We collaborate with our customers to share knowledge, risks and rewards as we focus on inventing technologies to enable the new digital-industrial era in the oil and gas sector. We've pioneered concepts and practical tools for this new age — solutions that bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds.

Our latest products and services are designed to take advantage of the Predix® Platform, GE Digital’s operating system that's driving the Industrial Internet. Advanced sensor and monitoring technologies, and big data analytics capabilities give our customers unprecedented insight into their onshore, offshore, and subsea operations. And the benefits go far beyond understanding current situations — to predicting and avoiding future problems, and ultimately enabling greater productivity at the equipment, plant and enterprise levels.

As the world’s Digital Industrial company, GE is transforming energy markets with software-defined machines and solutions that are connected, responsive and predictive — bringing speed, scale, and greater insight to our oil and gas customers.

We're committed to reducing equipment downtime, optimizing assets, building new partnership models for the sector — and to fueling the future.

The Power of the GE StoreThe GE Store is our name for the company’s ability to transfer intellect and technology across industries. It allows us to drive innovation, performance and outcomes regardless of business and geography.

Our network of 10 Global Research centers has more than 3,600 of the world’s best scientists and engineers, all of whom focus on advancing technologies for GE’s industrial businesses. This team compliments the over 50,000 engineers and technical specialists from the individual GE businesses. The result is a massive, global exchange where our most brilliant minds mix and match technologies, tools and ideas across functions and industries to create better solutions for all our customers.

Products of the GE Store can be found everywhere. Our fleet of mobile power plants uses technologies originally developed for jet engines. Our precision pipeline inspection technologies incorporate advances from healthcare diagnostic imaging. Our locomotive engines combine technologies from six different GE businesses to reduce NOx emissions by 76%. The examples go on. No other company has the ability to innovate and disseminate innovation and expertise in conceptualization and design, material science, manufacturing, software and analytics, process engineering, and business-model best practices.

The GE Store allows us to leap over conventional industrial limitations to drive innovation, performance, and outcomes regardless of application, business segment, or geography. It’s a place where expertise and collaboration accelerate commercialization.

GE Oil & Gas has a proven record of developing robust industrial gas turbines from world-class aircraft engines. Our LM2500 (18-24 MW) and LM2500+/G4 (28-34 MW) units were evolved from GE's TF39/CF6-6 engines that power Lockheed C-5 and McDonnell Douglas DC-10 aircraft. Our LMS100 (100-116 MW) and LM6000 (44-60 MW) turbines were evolutions of GE's CF6-80C2/E1 engine that powers Airbus 300, 310 and 330; as well as Boeing 747 and 767. We've built over 4,000 of those aeroderivative gas turbines, and they've accumulated 100+ million fleet hours in mechanical drive and power generation applications.

Now, LM9000 continues the tradition by drawing on the unparalleled global flight experience of GE Aviation's GE90-115B, Boeing's 777 engine since 2004.

• Boeing's 777 aircraft engine

• 2,000 engines in service

• Most powerful commercial flight engine — over 120,000 lbs of thrust

PROVENIN THE SKY

Power & Speed FlexibilityA key design feature is its free power turbine — enabling high-efficiency power and speeds over a wide range of ambient conditions. The LM9000 has a nominal speed of 3,429 rpm, and a 70% to 105% speed range.

Optimized Package DesignIts modular package design enables shorter manufacturing cycles and faster installation, with lower installed and operational costs than field-erected units.

This also contributes to the LM9000’s compact footprint which helps meet stringent space requirements, especially for retrofits or smaller new plants, and greatly simplifies balance of plant requirements for both offshore and onshore installations. The driver package is just 12.5 m x 5 m x 4.5 m (LxWxH).

Maintenance & Cost AdvantagesThe LM9000 simplifies LNG plant design and associated CAPEX by eliminating the need for a helper motor — allowing LNG train startup in the loaded (pressurized) condition without venting process gas. Its high efficiency and longer maintenance intervals help reduce operating costs related to fuel and maintenance, in comparison with a non-GE DLE aeroderivative gas turbine:

• In mechanical-drive configuration for a typical 4.5 MTPA LNG plant, the LM9000 has up to 20% lower total cost of ownership (TCO)

• In simple-cycle power generation configuration, it has up to 13% lower leveraged cost of electricity (LCOE)

Longer maintenance intervals and 24-hour engine swap capability (thanks to an innovative mini skid for easy lateral removal of either the whole gas turbine or just the supercore) contribute to >99% availability, which is critical to LNG applications.

The turbine’s condition-based maintenance, multiple borescope ports, and structural design are all tailored to meet aviation-quality metrics for high reliability and maintainability.

ROBuST dESIGNdIVERSE APPLICATIONS

Ideal for mechanical drive, the LM9000 is also well suited for simple-cycle (peaking, mid-merit, baseload), cogeneration, and combined-cycle power generation. With 43% simple-cycle efficiency, and over 80% efficiency in cogeneration configuration, this turbine can deliver a precise, dependable, safe, and flexible energy supply.

The LM9000 is the most competitive gas turbine for LNG mechanical drive in the 65+ MW class. It offers the highest availability, best-in-class total cost of ownership, and DLE technology that enables dual fuel capability and reduces NOx emissions while eliminating water use in emissions abatement.
