Rolls-Royce is to supply two gas turbines to power Russian oil company Lukoil's power plant in Budennovsk, Russia.

The equipment will be manufactured and packaged at the Rolls-Royce facilities in Quebec, Canada and Mount Vernon in the U.S.A.
Tom Sacco from Rolls-Royce said proven efficiency and superior fuel consumption of the Trent 60 gas turbine would provide the Russian Power Market with a dependable supply of electricity.
In 2011 Rolls-Royce won a contract to supply Lukoil with five diesel engines for pumping, refining and related services at the Russian firm's diamond mine in the Arkhangelsk region of Russia.
