Electrical Power System Study for FEED – KGOC Onshore Processing Facilities
Kuwait Gulf Oil Company (KGOC)
Scope of Work
The scope of this power systems engineering study covers an extensive suite of technical analyses, including load flow analysis, short circuit analysis, motor starting and voltage drop studies, power factor correction, relay coordination, arc-flash analysis, harmonic analysis, ground grid analysis, switching transient analysis, and insulation coordination studies. These evaluations are focused on key facility assets such as the 132kV Main Intake Substation (MIS), the 33kV Main Distribution Substation (MDS), and the 6.6kV and 400V distribution networks.
