GlassPoint lowers costs by 55% at 1-GW solar project in Oman

California-based GlassPoint Solar Inc and partner Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), together building the 1-GW Miraah solar thermal park in Oman, have to date cut costs by 55% as the technology used for the project scales up.

Construction, Operations and Performance of the First Enclosed Trough

The pilot project deployed in Amal West field was of a new enclosed trough design in which solar radiation is concentrated using parabolic trough mirrors that are enclosed to protect them from dust and wind loading.

Parabolic Trough

A parabolic trough is a special type of solar concentrator that has a parabolic cross section (it is parabolic in two dimensions) but is linear in the third dimension. The result is that the parabolic shape is extended linearly to make a long reflector. The shape of the reflector causes sunlight to be concentrated along a line at the focus of the parabola, a line that runs along the length of

Oman to get 2 GWth solar steam plant for enhanced

It is a challenging task to operate a concentrating solar system for steam production in Oman''s dusty desert. To shield the system''s parabolic trough collectors from sand and dust, they have been put inside glasshouses,

Miraah solar thermal plant in Oman delivers 1st

GlassPoint Solar Inc and partner Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), together building the 1-GW Miraah solar thermal park in Oman, announced today that the plant''s first block has successfully delivered steam

Direct Steam Generation by an Enclosed Solar Parabolic Trough

Enclosed trough technology was introduced by M/s Glasspoint Solar, Inc. and some previous works have been already available [2,3,4,5,6]. Enclosed trough technology has been adopted for thermal EOR operation of one of the heavy oil fields in south Oman and such facility is operational.

Research review on performance evaluation of a parabolic trough solar

This experimental study aimed to examine the impact of many parameters, including concentration ratio, optical efficiency, and thermal efficiency, on the performance of the trough solar collector. In the present day, nations throughout the globe exhibit a collective preoccupation with the issue of environmental pollution and its consequential impacts.

Miraah solar thermal plant in Oman delivers 1st steam for EOR

The project developers said in a joint statement that the first out of 36 standard greenhouse blocks housing parabolic trough collectors was completed safely on schedule and on budget. Upon completion of the remaining blocks, they will make up a complex with the capacity to deliver 1,021 MWp of thermal energy to produce 6,000 tonnes of steam

Oman: Construction Starts for World´s Largest Solar Steam

State-owned Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) commissioned Californian Glasspoint to install the world''s largest solar steam producing plant, Miraah, next to the Amal West oilfield. Construction of the concentrating solar thermal collector field of 1 GW th began at the end of 2015, and first steam generation is expected to start in 2017.

Parabolic Trough | 3D CAD Model Library | GrabCAD

A parabolic trough is a type of solar thermal energy collector used in CSP plants (Concentrated Solar Power). The reflector, which concentrates the sunlight to a focal line or focal point, has a parabolic shape; these reflectors are tracked to the suns movement throughout the day to utilise the suns power to a maximum. Through the focal point

Next Generation of Solar Energy | Solabolic

The patented SOLABOLIC ® parabolic trough will do the same for the concentrated solar power (CSP) industry and achieve system dimensions nearly twice the size of the industry standard parabolic troughs, at higher efficiency and much less costs.

New Glasspoint announces first 1.5 GW parabolic trough field

The new Glasspoint´s marketing strategy emphasises the successful construction of the Miraah plant in Oman between 2015 and 2019. Since the end of 2019 the client, Petroleum Development Oman, has been operating several 30 MW blocks with a total capacity of 330 MW of parabolic troughs in greenhouses in the middle of the desert.

Construction of an Enclosed Trough EOR System in South Oman

Parabolic trough collectors are enclosed within a modified agricultural glasshouse, which protects the collectors from wind, sand and dust common in oilfield environments, and eliminates energy losses due to wind. Automatic glasshouse washing and air filtration equipment dramatically reduce soiling and related losses.

Miraah — GlassPoint

The enclosed trough solar field uses curved mirrors to focus sunlight onto a pipe filled with water. The concentrated sunlight boils the water to create steam, which is fed directly to the oilfield''s existing steam distribution network.
