Our future city will be green by every mean marvelous But at what Cost
Our future city will be green by every mean, marvellous! But at what Cost! When I first read about The Line in NEOM, Saudi Arabia, I was inspired by the vision of a state-of-the-art city designed to exist in perfect harmony with nature. The concept sounds ideal, but it quickly sparked a critical question in my mind: at what cost? Long before we can move into this eco-utopia, how much damage will its construction inflict…
Turbine Parts: 6B Combustion Liners
Over 600 6B liners sold without a fit-up issue or warranty claim. Thermal Barrier coating (TBC) lines the body and cap interior, and chrome carbide protects the spring seal against wear from the transition piece. Liner quality has been elevated by maintaining tighter tolerances on holes sizes and roundness, flatness of the combustion caps, and the size and location of theliner stops. Improved fabrication procedures (such as upgrading brazing compounds) reduce future repair costs and…
GE5 Gas Turbines
The GE5 is a compact, state-of-the-art, 6 MW class industrial gas turbine. It has two configuration in use; a cold-end drive single shaft for power generation and a hot-end drive twin shaft for mechanical drive applications. Both configuration share a share a common gas generator, with operating and maintenance benefits in installations where mixed operation is required. In twin shaft engine, the second stage turbines from single shaft unit is removed and added a two…

Turning on the Lights: The Blueprint for Africa’s Interconnected Energy Future Despite holding some of the world’s richest energy reserves, Africa has historically grappled with deep infrastructural deficits. As of 2026, the continent stands at a critical execution crossroads. Initiatives like Mission 300 championed by the World Bank and the African Development Bank are pushing hard to bring electricity to 300 million people by 2030. Achieving true energy security requires shifting the focus from individual nations to an integrated, continent-wide strategy. This two-part article breaks down Africa’s current energy landscapes, the massive transmission gaps, and the cross-border infrastructure designed to…

Syria’s Power Sector: Rebuilding an Energy Landscape Following more than a decade of severe infrastructural degradation, Syria’s domestic power grid is undergoing its most significant structural evolution. The state-centralized model managed by the Ministry of Electricity is transitioning rapidly into an integrated Public-Private Partnership (PPP) and Independent Power Producer (IPP) framework. This paradigm shift aims to overcome the loss of an estimated 70% of pre-war generation capacity due to conflict damage, looting, and critical shortages of natural gas and fuel oil. Current Landscape & Rehabilitation: While historical utility backbones like Aleppo Thermal, Zayzoun, and Deir Ezzor remain largely or entirely…

The Syria Energy Outlook: Government Reforms, Foreign Billion-Dollar Pacts, and the Long Road to a Stable Grid Following the monumental political shift in late 2024 marked by the fall of the Assad regime and the installation of the transitional government led by President Ahmad al-Sharaa Syria has entered a critical phase of reconstruction. At the center of this rebirth is the power industry. After nearly 14 years of civil war, heavy sanctions, and severe underinvestment, the grid was left deeply degraded. However, the lifting and easing of Western sanctions in 2025 has triggered a swift, multi-billion-dollar effort to rebuild Syria’s…
