Abstract

A compressor plant with at least one gas turbine having a gas turbine compressor and with a steam turbine is disclosed, wherein a steam generation plant which is assigned to the gas turbine is operated with exhaust gases of the gas turbine, such that the steam generated in the steam generation plant drives the stream turbine. There is assigned at least one additional compressor for compressing a process medium. The compressor is connected directly to the gas turbine and/or the steam turbine such that the assigned compressor is driven in each case directly by the gas turbine and/or the steam turbine.
