The Rolls-Royce Trent 60 is the most advanced aeroderivative gas turbine available today. Delivering up to 64MW of electric power in simple cycle service, at 42 per cent efficiency, the Trent 60 has established a new benchmark for fuel economy and cost savings. It also offers operators fast delivery and installation times and beneficial performance.
The Trent 60 is also available for onshore or offshore mechanical drive applications. The Trent 60 is ideally suited to meet the higher power, variable speed demands required by applications like natural gas liquefaction, gas transportation and gas injection for oil recovery. The design flexibility of the Trent 60 allows the same engine that serves the power generation market to meet the needs of mechanical drive service with no design changes.
