"Our turbine-generator sets will enable Petrobel to generate approximately 20% more power than the comparable equipment."

Manufactured at the Siemens operation located in Lincoln, England, the SGT-400 turbines will be integral to the supply of electric power to the natural gas processing facility currently under construction.

The SGT-400 model efficiency lowers fuel consumption and operating costs, and enables the operator to sell more gas to its customers.
