Abstract

The present invention is a gas turbine combined cycle power plant which generates electricity by fueling a gas turbine with crude oil or heavy oil and which is provided with a vacuum distillation unit which distills and extracts a light oil fraction from crude oil or heavy oil by keeping the interior thereof in an environment which lowers a boiling point of crude oil or heavy oil, and the vacuum distillation unit is provided with heaters which heat distillation materials by using low pressure steam and medium pressure steam generated in a gas turbine combined cycle.
