Turbine Services
Planning, QA & inspection document compiling, turbine strip downs and assembly, condition assessment, fault finding, laser alignment, commissioning and asset condition reporting with extensive experience in the following areas:
Mechanical inspection of turbine components and identification of defects
Mechanical set up of clearances and other parameters for optimised operational performance
Evaluation of tolerance deviations from design and risk analyses
Incident investigation and fault finding on all types of turbine and generator mechanical plant
Vibration related fault finding and evaluation
Using photogrammetry for structure distortion studies to evaluate the relative movement of components and proposal of solutions
Turbine plant life cycle plans and optimisation
Evaluation and risk assessment of plant running under abnormal condition
Optimisation of turbine plant operational parameters as well as commissioning and de-commissioning procedures
Compilation of procurement specifications for turbine spares such as rotors, casings, seals, or complete retrofit or new plant
In-house training framework that encompasses structured turbine training that increases knowledge from a basic level through to a complex understanding of turbines. This is an industry-leading approach and will contribute to developing a strong next generation of turbine specialists
