RESOURCES – TECHNOLOGY

Wind energy

Is an indirect form of solar energy.

In general, wind results from an unequal heating of different parts of the earth, causing cooler, dense air to circulate to replace warmer light air.

Offshore wind energy has minimal environmental effects.

Higher wind speeds at sea produces energy increase from 10-20% compare to ground installations.

9

RESOURCES – TECHNOLOGY – (CONT’D)

How does a wind turbine works?

Wind turbine transform the Kinetic energy of wind into Mechanical Energy (rotating blades), which in turn is transform in Electrical energy through the main shaft that turns the generator.

10

RESOURCES – TURBINE EQUIPMENT

For this project horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT) will be use, for their greater efficiency compared to vertical-axis wind turbines which are 50% less efficient and there ease installation offshore.

HAWT turbines have the following main components:Blades (3)Pitch Controls (4)Main Bearing Assembly (6)Main Shaft (7)Gearbox (8)Break Disc (10)Coupling (11)Generator (12)Tower (14)Canopy (18)

11

RESOURCES – TURBINE EQUIPMENT – (CONT’D)

Building an offshore wind turbine will require installation on steel monopiles, which are long, steel tubes hammered into the sea bed.

12

RESOURCES – TURBINE MANUFACTURER

GE Energy

Is one of the world’ leading suppliers of power generation and energy delivery.

Has the worldwide resources and experience to help their customers meet their needs for cleaner, more reliable and efficiency energy.

Has six wind manufacturing and assembly facilities: Germany, Spain, China, and the United States.

Has installed in the last 12 years, 10,000 1.5 MW wind turbines around the world.

13

RESOURCES – POWER GRID

The existing power grid in the region of Kamsar, Guinea will be upgraded to distribute the additional generated power.

14

RESOURCES – POWER GRID – (CONT’D)

New grid

Will stabilize the power supply to the area.

Will add new transmission and distribution lines, substations (step-up and step-down transformers).

SCHEDULE AND COST ANALYSIS


53

COST ANALYSIS

All cost categories are covered in the cost summary

The funding $20 million for this project is solely provided by the local energy company SOGEL

Contingency and Risk allocation was set to $1.5 million

Salary.com was primarily used for staffing resources costs

Turbine costs and installation was from GE Energy website

It is assumed that the cost of the Turbine installation includes transport of individual parts to the work site to be assembled

54

COST ANALYSIS (CONT’D)

The $0 Cost values indicated in some tasks shown on the cost summary and project schedule assume that costs for those tasks are included within the main contracts with sub-vendors, and internally with WES, inc. For example, cost for Engineering and Design (1.4) is shown as $0 since it already accounted under Project Management (1.7)
