March 2009.

In 2008 Kapar Energy Ventures purchased Kelman’s cost effective on-line transformer monitor MINITRANS. Winning this key project within Malaysia was a confirmation of the continued global success of Kelman’s ‘3 Gas plus moisture’ on-line DGA equipment.

Since the installation of the units, approximately six months ago, Kapar Energy Ventures are extremely satisfied with the MINITRANS installed at Kapar’s Power station.  The power station lies between the mouths of the Kapar Besar and the Serdang Kecil rivers. Totalling 2420 MW, the station consists of steam plants firing oil, gas and coal as well as open cycle Frame 9 gas turbines.  This is a highly significant project for Kelman and reflects the continued confidence held by the major power companies around the globe in the accuracy and reliability of Kelman’s technology.

Kapar Energy Ventures is a joint venture Company between Tenaga Nasional Berhad and Malakoff Berhad with an equity holding of 60% Tenaga Nasional Berhad and 40 % Malakoff Berhad.

The MINITRANS is a new generation of on-line DGA equipment based on the same core technology as the successful TRANSFIX . MINITRANS represents a lower cost alternative for the customer and monitors the three key gases; hydrogen, acetylene and carbon monoxide, plus moisture.
