At 13:58 on March 29, local time in Saudi Arabia, 1# Gas Turbine for the Saudi Nairyah 2 Project, constructed by Harbin Electric International Company Limited (HEI), was successfully positioned, marking the start of the installation work for the unit and laying a solid foundation for the project's subsequent progress.

As the "heart" of the entire combined-cycle power plant, the gas turbine requires extremely high installation precision, presents significant construction challenges, and involves substantial safety risks. To ensure the success of this lifting operation in a single attempt, the Nairyah 2 Project Department planned ahead and made meticulous arrangements, repeatedly reviewing and optimizing the lifting plan and refining every operational step. Prior to the lifting, the project team provided detailed safety and technical briefings to the operating personnel and conducted joint inspections of the lifting machinery, tools, and equipment to ensure a foolproof positioning of the gas turbine.

Earlier, to ensure the timely and safe arrival of the gas turbine at the site, the Nairyah 2 Project Department and the Logistics Management Department worked closely in coordination, overcame multiple challenges, and planned the transportation route in advance, ensuring the gas turbine's safe, smooth, and punctual arrival.

The Nairyah 2 Project is one of the largest gas-fired combined-cycle power plants in Saudi Arabia in terms of installed capacity in recent years, and it is also a key project under the framework of Saudi Vision 2030 to optimize the power structure and enhance the grid's peak-shaving capability. The successful positioning of the gas turbine marks the achievement of a major milestone, signaling that the project's installation work has entered a new phase. Moving forward, the Nairyah 2 Project Department will build on this momentum, continue to uphold strict safety and quality standards, and advance the subsequent equipment installation with high standards. With full commitment, the team will strive to ensure the project reaches completion and commences operation on schedule with high quality, contributing HEI's expertise to the development of Saudi Arabia's energy and power sector.
