Jokowi Sends Off Marine Karadeniz Powership Zeynep Sultan Vessel Power Plant

[CountStrike]

TEMPO.CO, INDONESIA - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) sent off a marine vessel power plant from the Tanjung Priok Port to Amurang, North Sulawesi, yesterday. The ship is one of five ships which were rented by State-owned Electricity Company PT PLN to fulfill the needs of electricity in various regions in Indonesia.

"There will be six more to come in about six months," said Jokowi after dispatching the Turkish ship named Karadeniz Powership Zeynep Sultan.

Besides North Sulawesi, according to the President, same type of ships will also be sent to East Nusa Tenggara, West Nusa Tenggara, Maluku, and North Sumatera. "Everytime i went to any regions, the complaints were always the same, electricity. In addition to the 35,000 MW program, this is a quicker program to solve the electricity problem," says Jokowi.

The Zeynap Sultan vessel has a power plant capacity of 120 MW. It was rented by PLN for five years and could be operated with two kinds of fuel, which are petrol and gas. PLN will also send the same type of vessel to North Sumatera (240 MW), Kupang (60 MW), Ambon (60 MW), and Lombok (60 MW). The total of overall electricity to be generated is targeted to be 540 MW.

Sofyan Basir, President Director of PT PLN, said that the use of these five vessels could reduce the cost of electircity suppy and save Rp350 billion per year. Amurang becomes the first location because of the electricity deficit of around 50-60 MW. "Power outage has been done everyday at least four to six hours," he said.

Sofyan added that the vessels will operate up until the PLN`s eletricity power plant construction is completed in the next three years.

Indonesia Deploys First Powership

By MarEx 2015-12-08 13:31:33

On Tuesday, the president of Indonesia attended the inauguration ceremony of the nation's first of five contracted floating power stations. The 125 megawatt plant installed on the ship, the converted barge carrier Zeynep Sultan, is expected to enter service in North Sulawesi by the end of the year. It is the Sultan's first deployment.

Indonesia is investing $50 billion in building some 35 gigawatts of generating capacity by 2020. The majority of the new land-based stations will be coal-fired, but the project has encountered delays, primarily from problems aquiring land, and the government is working to find faster solutions for areas with unmet needs.

The powerships will serve the growing needs of Indonesia's remote eastern islands, including Sulawesi, Halmaherah, Maluku and Papua, where demand has greatly outstripped electricity supply and blackouts are commonplace. The plants will be able to enter operation sooner than land-based facilities, run cheaply on inexpensive HFO, and relocate as needed around Indonesia's far-flung archipelago.

The stations are owned and operated by powership operator Karadeniz Holdings of Turkey, and will add around half a gigawatt of capacity to the Indonesian grid. The largest of the five, intended for North Sumatra, accounts for just under half of that total. Officials expect that deployment will be complete by the middle of 2016.

The plants are built around dual-fuel engines, able to run on either HFO or LNG. But Indonesian officials say that HFO is presently much cheaper, and while the utility has a tender out for LNG procurement, it will save millions on fuel costs every year that it uses HFO for its floating stations.

These conventionally-fuelled plants are not the only floating stations being considered by Indonesian authorities. In September, Russia's Rosatom Overseas signed an MOU with Indonesia's National Nuclear Energy Agency for studying construction of high-powered shore based and low-powered floating nuclear power plants (FNPPs).


While novel, the FNPP concept is not new. The first working example, the MH-1A, was built for the U.S. Army and supplied power to the Panama Canal Zone from 1968 to 1975.

Russia has been interested in exporting the concept to Indonesia for some time; in 2007, North Sulawesi was said to be discussing a partnership to deploy a Russian FNPP.

Yeah if you need big amounts of electricity in a short period of time.

The project was a disaster it failed absolut !



"However, the early anticipation by the Karadeniz Energy Group and the Pakistan Federal Ministry for Water and Power has grown into violation of contract as the two Powerships have arguably failed to meet the target capacity of electricity production, since their operational commencement in 2011. The breach of terms has led to the end of contract and seizure of Kaya Bey and Ali Can Bey. If a settlement deal does not work out with the National Accountability Bureau, the Karadeniz Group would be suing Pakistan at a US arbitration court, to compensate for their loss and the release of the two Powerships, which now reside in the government’s custody."

Metrotvnews.com, Jakarta: President Joko Widodo wants Indonesia to have an industry to produce floating power plants. The idea was conveyed as Indonesia has a huge needs of floating power plants.

Jokowi mentioned that he had also spoken with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan some time ago. He mentioned it was also related to the five rented power plant vessels from Turkey.

"Two weeks ago I met with President Erdogan, as I conveyed that after these five vessels, the next vessels should be built in Indonesia, as we have a large needs of vessels," mentioned Jokowi at the Tanjung Priok Harbor, Jakarta, Tuesday (12/8/2015).

Jokowi explained that Indonesia is an archipelago. The needs of electricity is also huge, but it has not been fulfilled completely. With this vessels, it is hoped to supply the needs of electricity with the electric-deficit regions.

"It was conveyed by the owner of the vessel company, they are to build in Indonesia. Maybe partnering with the state owned companies or private," mentioned Jokowi.

It is similar to the Minister of State Owned Companies Rini Soemarno, as she mentioned that Indonesia is to have a power plant ship factory serving the capacity of 40 to 60 Megawatts (Mw). Currently, she mentioned the discussion over a joint venture company, which has been conducted with the subsidiary of the Karadeniz Holding.

Karadeniz Holding is a company renting the Marine Vessel Power Plant (MVPP).

"We have spoken earlier. We want to conduct a joint venture. They are willing to do it with the state owned companies," mentioned Rini.

She hopes that the joint venture may be applied next year.

"We hope that the joint venture will be applied by mid-next year," concluded Rini.

Maybe it has something to do with geography, Indonesia being made up of scattered islands..

Manado. Indonesia is expected to have five floating power plants with a total capacity of 540 megawatts within the next five years.

According to Ufuk Berk, Asia director at energy and engineering company Karpowership, the first of the five floating power plants is currently in North Sulawesi, after it arrived in the Gulf of Amurang in South Minahasa during January.

"The power plant ship has the capacity of 125 MW and it is operational," Berk told Suara Pembaruan in Manado, North Sulawesi, on Friday (08/04).

State-owned utility company Perusahaan Listrik Negara is cooperating with Turkey-based Karpowership to procure the vessels in order to mitigate electricity crises in Indonesia.

"It is a very good project to assist Indonesia with its electricity shortages," Berk said.

The ship, which has been operational since its arrival, has 45 engineers on board. However, due to PLN's insufficient power distribution network, only 82 MW of the ship's total capacity of 125 MW can currently be supplied.

Ufuk said his company would also supply electricity to Kupang (East Nusa Tenggara), Mataram (West Nusa Tenggara), Medan (North Sumatra) and several other regions. The ship destined for Medan will have a capacity of 200 MW.

Power ship vessel with capacity of 120 MW (image: special)
JAKARTA (RAMBUENERGY.com) – Indonesian state-owned shipbuilder PT PAL Indonesia and the PT Kar Powership of Turkey on Friday (Oct 28) signed memorandum of understanding to develop floating power vessel to support the government’s drive to build 35,000 MW of power plant by 2020.

The MoU was signed in Jakarta by CEO of Karpowership Orhan Remzi Karadeniz and President Director of PAL Indonesia Muhammad Firmansyah Arifin. The MoU was witnessed by Turkey Ambassador to Indoensia Sander Gurbuz and Karpowership Director Region Asia Ufuk Berk.

The cooperation will cover development of floating powership for seven years with total capacity of 5,000 MW. The powerships will have different capacities.

Firman said the powership, powered by two-types of fuel, will be deployed in remote islands across Indonesia and can be moved from one place to another. The ship, he said, is suitable for the archipelagic nation like Indonesia.

Orhan said the powership will be cost-efficient and can be generated by oil, coal, gas and others.

Under the MoU, PAL is responsible for design, procurement, construction, transportation, installation, testing and maintenance of the powership in the next seven years.

Kar Powership, is the operator of 125 MW of Kardeniz Powership Zeynep Sultan which is being deployed in Amurang, North Sulawesi. Kar Powership has delivered such vessel to Indonesia so far. (*)

Why do they not build regular power plants? These ships should only be temporary solutions?

They are mostly used as a temporary supplemental power supply for areas that have disasters or the summer heat wave taxing the capacity.

There's a variety of them from Gas powered, to LNG, and even Solar.
