1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• This report is the ninth report established by Alstom (Switzerland) related to Alstom
Scope of work as defined in the “220MW CCPP SKOPJE / MACEDONIA Joint Contract Agreement”
• This report covers the period from 1st of February 2008 to 29th of February 2008. • Main events during the period:
o Engineering is on-going
The main foundation design is ordered based on the soil investigation and soil bearing capacity received from GAMA on the 21st February.
GAMA requested information in the event of equipment re-assembly at site. ALSTOM is waiting for the official confirmation for the delivery disassembled of the Gas turbine and its reassembly at site.
o HRSG missing information impacts ST engineering o 4th invoice payment related to rotor forgings received
2. ENVIRONMENT HEALTH & SAFETY STATISTICS N.a.
3. CONTRACTORS PERSONNEL No changes during the period. 4. PROGRESS SUMMARY
4.1. ENGINEERING STATUS
Engineering is ongoing and some purchase orders have been prepared during the reporting period.
Important input documents from GAMA are not complete and for some cases evening missing. These documents are preventing ALSTOM to proceed with engineering work and may have further an impact, for already placed purchase orders, see attachment 4 for details.
GAMA send feedback to several documents during the reporting period, however GAMA’s review of some engineering document are still overdue.
4.1.1. CIVIL INPUT ENGINEERING
The main foundation design is ordered based on the soil investigation and soil bearing capacity received on the 21st February from GAMA.
4.1.2. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
An updated noise study was revived on 4th February from GAMA together with a
request of reducing the noise from the air intake system. A phone conference was held on the 14th February to further clarify the requirements. ALSTOM has
requested a quotation from G+H Schallschütz, based on the requirements from GAMA.
The outstanding information from seismic concept is a risk for mainly the air intake system, however also other equipments might be affected. An updated seismic concept was send to Colenco on the 29th February however the comments made
on the 19th November 2008 in CHAP/GPS/0159 is still valid.
4.1.3. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
Engineering ongoing according to schedule, except for:
• The design for the ST neutral point cubicle is on hold. Input received on the 29th February. ALSTOM will review the input.
ALSTOM commented the short circuit calculation on the 4th November 2007 ref.
CHAP/GPS/0107 and its revision B on the 8th February 2008 ref. CHAP/GPS/0224.
The minimum grid short circuit capacity at 110kV connection point is urgently needed to calculate the power system stabilizer parameters, which are stated in the Transfer Function Diagram. The transfer function diagram is required to achieve grid code compliance.
4.1.4. GT Control System
Engineering ongoing according to schedule. 4.1.5. ST Engineering (including Control System)
Engineering
Engineering design- ongoing.
Preparation of the technical specifications and documentation for the turbine factory

8. QUALITY ASSURANCE & CONTROL
• No point to be reported during the period
9. MAJOR CONCERNS AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
Missing of incomplete documentation from GAMA.(acc. To JCA)
• HRSG characteristics (including start-up curves and operational parameters range) - within the package received on 19.11.2007 start-up curves are missing and boundary parameters are not given.
• Cooling water diagram and parameters (definition of minimal, nominal and maximal conditions) – still not yet received by TSR. Together with the fact, that steam turbine design has been frozen during the 2nd Design Review dd 10.12.2007 and the manufacturing process is progressing – an exposure of underperformance exists in case GAMA comes up with the cooling water parameters significantly deviating from the contractual boundaries. This risk cannot be verified without GAMA’s input.
