*COLD START* How To Start This 2000HP Jet ENGINE On A TRAILER

  • What costs $1,500,000, makes 2000HP, and you can run it continuously? This Dresser-Rand jet turbine that powers a giant high pressure nitrogen pump. Sentry built this rig that turns a massive tank of liquid nitrogen into gas that can be injected into the ground for drilling, increasing well output, or moving oil from an injection site to a production well. A customer dropped it off with my dad and just said it won't run. After some troubleshooting and repair it's back in service and ready to head back out into the field. First we're going to show you how to start this mobile jet engine and cold start it.

    Your dad's a righteous dude - he broke down the operation of that turbine, and made it sound like anyone could start it(not that anyone should, that's probably why it was needing repair in the 1st place). That's why your videos are so detail-oriented, fellow gearheads like myself appreciate that.

So if he gets requests again with issues, he can contact Siemens Energy Kongsberg Norway that are product owner. Fun to see what jobs these KG2's are doing. Sold approx more than 2000 units world wide. KG2-3C, KG2-3E and now a new era machine KG2-3G.

    Awesome demonstration of the KG2-3C turbine and frack pump combo. Make sure to have the lube temp permissive (30C) before you spin up the turbine.
    Also, once you kill the unit or spin down, keep running your post-lube system (keep the pony motor running) to prevent ruining the bearings due to insufficient lube pressure and oil viscosity drop due to overheating of oil at reduced oil circulation.

    Gas turbines are quite a bit more prevalent in different industries than we're aware of. They're used as driving units for pumps, generators, etc. Anything that needs an extreme amount of non-grid power to run is probably being run by a turbine. I've seen quite a few factories and warehouses that used turbines to handle their "over-power" requirements, which essentially means it fills in the gap between what the grid can supply cleanly and what the facility actually needs.
