Complex engine refurbishment and TOC achievement at the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC)

We are proud to announce the successful completion and receipt of a Take-Over Certificate (TOC) for a complex engine refurbishment project at Dhekelia Power Station, powered by the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC) in Cyprus.

Following operational challenges at the plant, BWSC inspected the unit and identified a displacement in one of the engine’s crankshafts.

After the public tendering round, BWSC was awarded the project in late 2024, based on our findings, technical expertise, and turnkey solution.

Through close and efficient collaboration with the facility owners, throughout 2025 and into early 2026, we have successfully replaced the crankshaft and safely brought the unit back into operation. With an efficient start-up and stable performance, the power plant is now fully operational again, delivering its full capacity of 18 MW, contributing to the electricity capacity in Cyprus.

A huge thank you to our dedicated site personnel and fitter teams for their commitment, craftsmanship, and passion in getting the engine back up and running.

Thank you to EAC for placing their trust in BWSC and for the smooth cooperation throughout the project. We are proud to have supported the re-establishment of such a critical power asset.

First engine start with new crankshaft

New MAN Engine Installed at Aasiaat CHP in Greenland

A damaged generator prompted Nukissiorfiit to replace the old MG5 diesel engine with a new MAN diesel engine.

BWSC was contracted to handle the project, which involved removing the old engine, designing, and delivering auxiliary equipment, modifying the DCS system, installing the new diesel engine and auxiliaries, and conducting testing and commissioning.

In early spring 2024, the old engine and auxiliaries were dismantled and sent to Denmark for environmentally responsible scrapping. A new base foundation was prepared to accommodate the different setup of the new engine.

The new engine arrived in Aasiaat in June, was transported to the site, and carefully slid into place. Installation and connection of the engine and auxiliaries began in August. Although the engine was ready to start in October,

its commissioning was delayed due to the unavailability of the correct lubricating oil.

The engine has now been successfully started and tested at full load. Congratulations to Nukissiorfiit and the BWSC Team for achieving this important milestone!
