ตัววัดแรงดันน้ำ -how group Wärtsilä will supply an 18 MW extension to the ability producing facility and upgrade the electrical and automation system of the existing energy plant at the Sabodala-Massawa gold mine advanced in Senegal, West Africa.
The mine is owned by Endeavour Mining, a leading international gold producer. The upgrading and extension venture will allow for the entire integration of all the site’s energy generating capability, while ensuring the provision of the needed electric energy to maintain and increase the mine’s manufacturing schedules
he order with Wärtsilä was placed by Sabodala Gold Operations and it has been booked in Wärtsilä’s order consumption in Q3 2022. The project shall be delivered beneath a whole engineering, procurement and development (EPC) contract.
Sabodala-Massawa mine is the largest producing gold mine in Senegal and is situated within the jap part of the country in the Kedougou region. Endeavour’s planned mine growth will rework Sabodala-Massawa into a top-tier gold asset with incremental manufacturing.
“Wärtsilä has a depth of experience in delivering energy solutions for mining operations around the world. Not being related to the grid implies that the captive plant has to be able to offering a reliable provide of electricity always, since no energy equals no manufacturing. The Wärtsilä 32 engines chosen for this expansion venture have established a robust popularity for top effectivity and reliability beneath even essentially the most tough ambient situations, eliminating income losses from energy shortages,” stated Marc Thiriet, Energy Business Director, Africa West, Wärtsilä.
The three Wärtsilä 32 engines to be put in are 20 per cent more gas environment friendly than the plant’s current engines. Their fuel effectivity minimises the environmental impact by lowering dangerous CO2 emissions. In addition to their excellent performance, they’ve the flexibility to support a clean transition to the integration of solar energy and vitality storage into the system. The upgrade of the electrical and automation system will optimise the interconnection and management for the existing energy plant with the extension.
The venture is expected to be completed and commissioned earlier than the tip of 2023.
Wärtsilä is Senegal’s main supplier of power producing gear, and already has 543 MW of installed capacity in altogether 20 power vegetation in the nation. 458 MW of this capability is underneath Wärtsilä long-term service agreements.
