A modular gas turbine system is disclosed. The system includes a base plate and a gas turbine engine mounted on the base plate. The gas turbine engine has a rotation axis, a first air compressor section and a second air compressor section. A rotating load is mechanically coupled to the gas turbine engine and mounted on the base plate. A supporting frame extends above the base plate and supports a plurality of secondary coolers, which are fluid exchange relationship with an intercooler of the gas turbine engine.

A mounting system includes a rotatable machine, a frame circumscribing the rotatable machine, and a plurality of mounting elements. Each mounting element of the plurality of mounting elements includes a pin member and a joint member. The joint member includes a rotatable joint capable of three degrees of freedom of rotation, and the joint member is slidably coupled to the pin member, such that each mounting element is capable of four degrees of freedom of motion. The plurality of mounting elements are further coupled between the frame and the rotatable machine and spaced circumferentially about the rotatable machine, such that the rotatable machine is able to expand and contract radially within the frame. The mounting system provides a uniform stiffness in any radial direction from the engine centerline within the lateral-vertical engine plane.

An electric motor for a direct drive drawworks may be supported by one or more motor mounts. The motor mounts may include adjusting assemblies adapted to increase or decrease the length of the motor mounts. The motor mounts may include damping assemblies adapted to allow damped motion between the electric motor and the surface. The length and damping coefficients of the motor mounts may be adjusted to align the electric motor with the drum or shaft to reduce vibration. The electric motor may be removable from the drawworks by, for example, a splined shaft, a flange coupled shaft, or the rotor being selectively removable from the interior of the motor.
