Condition monitoring, life management and diagnostics of gas turbines
Combined heat and power plants are major investments and remain
in operation for many years. A gas turbine is not only the most
powerful, but also the most critical component of such power
plants. When it comes to operational matters, good
performance without failures and low emissions are core issues. In
the field of maintenance, other priorities are set: short outages,
low costs, and reliable inspection results are key words. How can
you assess this if you were not there during the (new) construction
of the plant? The technological developments happen in rapid
succession. How do I know if I still possess state-of-the-art
technology? Questions and problems that require answers and solutions. And
always the same dilemma: the best solution at a reasonable price
and realized in the shortest time possible. Can I do it all by
myself? Do I have to go to a different company for each problem ?
Or is it possible to take all my problems to one consultant? A
partner who can help me solve these problems efficiently and
effectively? KEMA is the experienced and impartial partner
