Turbomachinery Package Specification 
Titan 
250 Generator Set 
15 Marinization 
15.1 General 
Description 
The  Titan 250 generator sets may be operated in offshore oil and gas applications. 
Depending upon operating conditions and movement of the underlying support structure, 
optional package modifications may be required.
 
Solar
 turbomachinery packages operate 
successfully on the following types of offshore installations: 
•  Fixed platform (FP) 
•  Tension leg platform (TLP) 
•  Compliant tower (CT) 
•  Spar platform (SP) 
•  Semi-submersible platform (SSP) 
•  Floating production systems (FPS) 
•  Floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) 
•  Mini-tension leg platform (Mini-TLP) 
Applications are evaluated based on the expected motion severity and the degree of 
package mounting surface flexing. Solar offers the following package modifications to 
achieve successful long-term operation. 
15.1.1 Package 
Sub-base 
As a standard, the Titan  250 package is suitable for three-point mounting. In severe 
cases, a substructure may be required to provide additional package rigidity to protect 
equipment and to maintain proper alignment of the driver and driven equipment. 
15.1.2 Gimbals 
Gimbals provide protection against G-forces generated by vessel pitch and roll 
movements and against deflection, twisting, and thermal growth of the mounting deck. 
Gimbals may be used for three-point package mounting. 
15.1.3 Anti-Vibration 
Mounts 
Anti-vibration mounts (AVMs) are used to isolate the mounting surface from package-
generated vibrations. AVMs do not provide the same level of motion protection as 
gimbals. AVMs may be used for three-point package mounting. 
15.1.4  Internal Package Modifications 
Moderate or severe package motion can potentially interfere with lube oil system 
operation. To prevent interference, modifications may be made to the lube oil system to 
ensure proper lube oil circulation. 
15.1.5 Inclinometers 
For moderate and severe duty applications, an inclinometer is furnished to provide alarm 
annunciation and equipment shutdown inputs when maximum allowable angular 
displacements are exceeded. Alarm levels are typically set 2 degrees below shutdown 
levels. 
15.1.6 Flexible 
Ducting 
Flexible ducting can be provided for the turbine air inlet duct, turbine exhaust duct, and, 
enclosure ventilation duct.
