These turbines will have a total value of $23.95 billion

Key Points: 
  • These turbines will have a total value of $23.95 billion
    Stuart Slade, Senior Industrial and Marine Gas Turbine Analyst for Forecast International, said pipeline modernizations are partly responsible for the surge in new mechanical drive orders.
  • He added that "the start of an extensive program of new pipeline construction has also resulted in a significant number of new orders."
  • This understates the full extent of the surge, however, since older, lower-output turbines are being replaced by new and more powerful units.
  • Forecast International's analysis suggests that in years to come, more than 55 percent of the mechanical drive machines produced will be 7.5 MW and larger.
