A floating vessel equipped with a power plant includes a hull and a process deck arranged on a portion of the hull above compartments within the hull. The power plant includes a fuel source and at least one electrical power generator driven by a gas turbine; the fuel source arranged for providing fuel to the gas turbine. Per gas turbine, the floating vessel is equipped with a steam production unit coupled to the gas turbine exhaust for receiving heat to produce pressurized steam. Per each steam production unit, the floating vessel is equipped with at least one secondary power generator driven by a steam turbine, which is coupled to the steam production unit for receiving steam. Each gas turbine and steam production unit are positioned on the process deck, and each secondary power generator and steam turbine are positioned under the process deck in the one or more compartments.
