Manlift installed 27 Cummins 1250kVA Powerbox units synchronised into a central power package producing 27MW of power running at 6.6kV.
Manlift is very proud to be the sole power supplier to the GCC plant which is capable of producing in excess of 6000 tons of cement every day and is therefore a major contributor to the rapid development currently taking place in Qatar.
The first tranche of power was fully operational on 02nd April 2010. The logistical operation included transporting specialist equipment from Manlift’s head office in Dubai, United Arab Emirates to Doha, Qatar whilst ensuring the tight timeframes and specific production requirements requested by the client were met.
The award of this contract is an extension of the 17 MW temporary power project that Manlift had been operating since 30th May 2009 for the GCC in Qatar.
David King, General Manager, Manlift Power - Qatar comments; “This project is a true example of the high levels of professionalism and knowledge that we offer our clients. The GCC project highlights our tremendous capabilities for delivering multi-megawatt international power projects under tight time and logistic constraints. I’m very proud of the Manlift Power team, both here in Qatar and in Dubai and we look forward to a fantastic extended relationship with the GCC”.
Adam Ashcroft, Regional Director of Manlift Power, said; “Building upon our previous successful performance in Qatar for GCC, we are delighted to have successfully undertaken this extended contract. Manlift has an impressive proven track record of supplying turnkey temporary power solutions and is fast becoming the chosen supplier in the region for both single unit and multi-megawatt rental projects”.
