(MEBG) –Glasgow-based Weir Pumps will supply boiler feed and condensate extraction pumps to the Shoaiba oil-fired power station, located some 120 km south of the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah, reported Gulf News. This is part of an £11 million order placed by ABB Alstom Power. 

 

The Weir equipment will be needed for phase one of the Shoaiba project, which consists of three oil-fired units. Each has an output capacity of 363 megawatts. Two more identical units are planned, giving the power station total power output of 1,815 megawatts.
