Siemens has been awarded a long-term service agreement for the
Blythe Energy Center in California. The customer is AltaGas Ltd,
headquartered in Alberta, Canada. The new agreement covers
scheduled maintenance activities, program management, spare parts,
power diagnostics and performance monitoring for the plant’s two
Siemens V84.3A (now named SGT6-4000F) gas turbines for the next 25
years or 116,000 equivalent operating hours (EOH).
The agreement will enable the Blythe Energy Center to take
advantage of Siemens modernization and unit enhancements, such as
thermal performance optimization, low-load turn down, and rotor
exchanges, all designed to help extend scheduled inspection
intervals and improve the operational flexibility of the two
combustion turbines at the facility.

reduce carbon monoxide emissions at part load.
“The Blythe Energy Center has been providing reliable
electricity for the past 11 years, and this continued service
agreement and gas turbine performance enhancing upgrades will
enhance the units’ ability to continue to operate optimally for
many years to come,” said Craig Weeks, CEO, Siemens Power & Gas
Services Business Unit.
