Turbine Installation Completed at Rooppur NPP Unit 1 in Bangladesh

The key operation – placement of the turbine set on the barring gear has been performed in the turbine hall of Unit 1. An important process stage of the turbine installation has been completed at Rooppur NPP Unit 1 in the People’s Republic of Bangladesh (the general designer and general contractor is Rosatom State Corporation Engineering Division). This resulted in the turbine set placement on the barring gear. During the tests, the turbine shaft started rotating at a slow speed.

The barring gear ensures correct alignment and balancing of the turbine rotor before the start-up and shutdown, which prevents the turbine components form wearing and ensures safe and efficient work.

The experts carried out control checks that confirmed accuracy of the alignment and high quality of assembly of the turbine set.

“Installation of the turbine at Rooppur NPP Unit 1 has been completed successfully and this is an important step to the physical start-up of the plant. The turbine set placement on the barring gear and successful control checks confirm accuracy of the assembly and reliability of the equipment. This result is an accomplishment of a highly qualified team of specialists and another evidence of the reliability of Russian technologies”, noted Alexey Deriy, Atomstroyexport JSC Vice President for Projects in Bangladesh.
