YTL 600MW Hi-Class Combined Cycle Gas Turtbine(CCP50 Project in Singapore

• Project Overview

Project Name: Singapore CCP50 Gas Power Station Project
Order Value: Approximately RMB 2 million (Lighting Package + Distribution Box Package)

• Customer background and challenges

Client: YTL Powerseraya Pte. Limited
EPC Contractor: SEPCOIII Electric Power Construction Corporation

① Singapore has stringent safety requirements, necessitating the installation of Earth Fault Relays or Residual Current Devices for all switches. Early clarification with the client regarding design institute or inspection authority specifications is essential.

② The production phase progresses rapidly, with initial periods of low urgency followed by intense pressure. This often compresses the drawing approval stage.

③ Even after drawing approval, clients may introduce new modifications. To address these issues, we need to optimize communication mechanisms across process standardization, information flow, drawing standards, and requirement management to ensure both efficiency and quality.

④ Regarding product certifications, PSB certification is mandatory for emergency lighting. This must be verified during the bidding stage.

• Our Solution

The main products required were low-voltage distribution cabinets. Leveraging Warom Technology’s comprehensive IEC certification portfolio, we engaged in multiple communications with the client, providing tailored responses that ultimately secured their approval.
For lighting fixtures, the scope included explosion-proof, weatherproof, and waterproof luminaires. Explosion-proof fixtures strictly complied with IECEx certification requirements, with documentation provided accordingly. Weatherproof fixtures were supported by CE certification, which the client accepted. Emergency lighting required Singapore’s local PSB certification, which no domestic manufacturer independently holds at present. We ultimately sourced these through a local partner.

• Implementation Process & Timeline

Quotation Date: December 17, 2024 – Multiple technical discussions and adjustments were conducted with the client prior to submission.

Award Date: January 5, 2025 – The client awarded the contract shortly after quotation, largely due to our proactive collaboration, though several technical requirements remained pending final confirmation.

Delivery Date: July 14, 2025 – Delivery of the lighting package supplement is still underway, while the distribution cabinet package faced significant challenges, including multiple technical revisions. Initially requiring delivery within one month, completed units had to be redesigned and reproduced due to new technical requirements from the client and design institute, resulting in order supplements and rework.

• Achievements and Data Demonstration

This project marks the first collaboration with SEPCOIII for an overseas project and represents our first business engagement with a Singaporean power company. It is critical for our future expansion with SEPCOIII and in Singapore’s non-oil and gas sectors.

• Customer Feedback

The client, influenced by domestic operational habits, often urges accelerated delivery before completing drawing approvals with the end-user. There is also a limited depth of understanding regarding technical requirements from the end-user and design institutes. Warom is expected to support project risk control as a collaborative partner rather than merely a supplier. During technical clarification, experienced engineers are essential to thoroughly interpret requirements and guide the client toward finalizing specifications, preventing ambiguities.
During production, robust documentation and evidence retention are imperative to support future communication and accountability tracing.

• Experiences Summary & Insights

Establish a “dual confirmation” process (involving both the technical team and the client) to formally document and sign off on drawing versions, technical parameters, and safety standards (e.g., Earth Fault Relay specifications).
Incorporate a 3–5 day buffer at key milestones (such as drawing approval and production launch) to accommodate last-minute client adjustments.
