	LM2500 Gas Turbine Engine
		In early applications, the LM2500 was rated at 21,500 bhp for the U.S. Navy's DD 963 and DDG 993 class destroyers, the CG 47 class cruisers, and the FFG 7 class frigates.
		The LM2500+ achieves increased power over the LM2500 primarily by increasing the compressor airflow 23%, with a minimal increase in combustor firing temperature by adding a compression stage (zero stage) to the front of the LM2500 compressor.
		LM2500 Gas Turbine Engine has a 16 stage axial flow compressor made up of a 16 stage Compressor rotor of moving blades driven by the high pressure turbine.

	GE Energy To Repower An LM2500 Aeroderivative Gas Turbine
		Houston, TX - GE Energy’s aeroderivative gas turbine services group will replace an existing LM2500 with a standard annular combustor (SAC) aeroderivative gas turbine with GE’s LM2500 turbine with a dry low emissions (DLE) combustor for the Crown van Gelder (CVG) N.V. Paper Mill in the Netherlands.
		This is one of the first repowering projects in Europe in which environmental requirements transfer from SAC with steam injection (for NOx reduction) to DLE technology.
		The presently installed LM2500 SAC unit was commissioned and put into commercial operation in 1984 and has been running for more than 160,000 hours on full load.
