Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) has set up a taskforce through which it is planning to seek Green Channel for speeding up transit of consignments bound for power projects, through inter-state borders.
The public sector company said that the task force will take up the idea to the Ministry of Surface Transport.
Addressing a Transporters' Meet & Awards function organised at BHEL Tiruchirappalli, A V Krishnan, executive director, BHEL – Tiruchirappalli said that this would be a significant benefit both for manufacturers and transporters of equipment for power projects across the country and would help to speed up project execution.
Unlike in the past when setting up the rail link used to be the first step in project execution enabling use of the railways, now there is not much time and roads are the only way, he added for transportation of project consignments, the speed at which the Indian power sector was growing meant that there was no longer time for setting up such infrastructure and construction had to start almost as soon as the land for the project was acquired.

BHEL commissions gas-based power projects in UAE, Oman
BHEL on Monday said it has commissioned two gas-based power projects in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Oman.
“BHEL commissioned the 2x42-MW gas turbine-based power project of Al Ghail Power Company in Ras Al Khaima, near Dubai, and a 26 MW gas turbine generator at Oman refinery and petrochemical plant in Muscat,” a company statement said.
BHEL’s scope of work under the 2x42-MW project included supply of gas turbine generating units with auxiliary equipment and supervision of erection and commissioning.
In the Middle East, BHEL has already set up 14 power projects, besides substations, and supplied a host of equipment for the power and oil and gas sectors.
BHEL currently manufactures equipment that can generate 15,000 MW of electricity.

AC drilling rigs, a new drive for Bhel
Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (Bhel), Hyderabad, is poised to enhance its rig manufacturing capabilities in collaboration with National Oil Well Varco, US. The Hyderbad unit has signed an MoU with the US company late last month for manufacturing land drilling rigs that work on alternating current (AC) and support up to 2000 horse-power drilling lines. The MoU is for building 35 rigs in phases.
With this new technology, which is more efficient and environment-friendly, Bhel Hyderabad looks to double its annual turnover from oil rigs to Rs 400 crore from Rs 200 crore now, according to CSR Murthy, head of engineering & technology, oil rigs. The public sector company expects an order from ONGC for six of 2,000 HP AC deep drilling rigs, each rig costing about Rs 110 crore.
The AC drilling rig, introduced in 1994, is now a preferred technology in off-shore and onshore explorations for its high response.
Further, unlike DC rigs, which causes diesel emissions, AC rigs draw power mostly from utilities, and are, thus, more environment-friendly

BHEL Augments Transformer Manufacturing Capacity
As part of its holistic manufacturing capacity expansion and modernization programme, Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd., or BHEL, has set up a new core and tank shop at its transformer manufacturing Facility at Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh.
With this new shop, the manufacturing capacity for transformers at its Jhansi unit is enhanced to 15,000 MVA per annum from 8,500 MVA per annum and is progressing well to further augment it to 20,000 MW by 2012 to meet the power demand of the nation.
The unit was dedicated to the nation on Wednesday by Vilasrao Deshmukh, Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises in the presence of Arun Yadav, Union Minister of State for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises and Pradeep Jain Aditya, Union Minister of State for Rural Development. B.S. Meena, Secretary, Department of Heavy Industry and B.P. Rao, CMD, BHEL, were also present on the occasion, in addition to the Board of Directors and other senior officials of BHEL.
Earlier, in his welcome address, Rao said that the India's target of adding 78,700-MW of generation capacity in the 11th Plan and around 1,00,000-MW in the 12th Plan calls for large scale evacuation of power and efficient transmission over long distances. This new facility has been established with the objective of meeting the emerging business opportunities in transmission and distribution. This will not only increase BHEL's manufacturing capacity but also give an opportunity to position itself as the leading player in the segment, he added.
