Siemens Energy secures two orders

Siemens Energy has announced that it has secured two orders worth more than £110m at its Energy Service Fossil facility in Newcastle.

The first is for the the supply of steam-turbine spares to Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity for use in the Al Mussaib Power Station. Work on the spares will be undertaken at the Siemens Shields Road facility in Newcastle.

Carl Ennis, managing director of Siemens Energy Service Fossil, said: ‘This contract will pave the way for future business to assist the Ministry of Electricity in its efforts to improve the reliability and maintenance of the electricity supply for the people of Iraq.’

The second order is for parts, shop repairs and field service for the Siemens-designed gas turbines, generators and steam turbines at Seabank Power Station in the Bristol area.
