According to KESH, if one of them works at full capacity. It will consume 500 tons of fuel per day...
The government has finally remembered to put into operation the two ships that were bought for energy production. "Tigri 1" and "Tigri 3" were purchased to face the energy crisis in the country during 2022, but only now they will be put into operation.
KESH has announced the opening of a tender for the purchase of 4 thousand tons of fuel for the ignition of two TPPs. In the tender documents, another element is highlighted that these TECs consume more than they produce. According to KESH, if one of them works at full capacity. It will consume 500 tons of fuel per day. And these ships run on specific fuel, which is not easily found.
" The floating assets have fuel management and storage capacities in a total of about 1,000 (one thousand) tons of fuel. The estimated consumption of fuel for 1 MWh is about 229 Kg, which means that, in the case of using the plant at full capacity, the need for supply is about 500 tons of fuel per day, since the amount of about another 500 tons will serve as a contingency reserve to guarantee the continuity of production ", the tender states.
Referring to annex 3 accompanying the procedure, it is informed that the procured quantity will be 4000 metric tons. This quantity according to the document will have a delivery availability of 3 months from the date of delivery of the first shipment. According to a forecast in this annex the first cargo delivered will be about 1200 metric tons on the first day, to 1000 metric tons on the 21st day and 1800 metric tons on the 42nd day.
" Maximum daily delivery - To coordinate with the operator / 24 hour standby; Maximum local delivery; - 2 trucks of 40 tons at the same time, 7m3/hour ", it says there.
When the ships are put into operation, the government will have to pay the money for their acquisition. KESH will pay 68 million dollars for rent and operation. 45 million dollars will be received by the American company Excelerate Energy for the two-year lease and 22.5 million dollars by the Renco firm for providing the operation service. So looking at the huge amount of fuel that those two ships will consume, the cost of energy production will be extremely high, at a time when the price of energy on the stock market has dropped significantly and it is more profitable to buy it abroad. / Pamphlet
