GWADAR: The planning process for the country’s largest oil city — which will house a $10 billion Aramco Oil Refinery project — in Pakistan’s southwestern Balochistan province is expected to conclude before the end of the year, Pakistani officials said this week. The proposed mega oil city will be developed at an area of 80,000 acres The power plant consists of four generating units each rated at 323 MW gross output, with a residual oil-fired single re-heat boiler and tandem compound, two-cylinder condensing steam turbine directly coupled to a hydrogen cooled generator. The net available output of 1200MW is exported to WAPDA’s national grid via the power station’s Hub Power Plant HUBCO
