Benefit to the client

The project delivered significant financial and operational benefits to the asset owner-operator. The project combined technical and project controls expertise to deliver a 25% reduction in the total maintenance schedule timeframe for the Low Pressure steam turbine, enabling quicker return to service from outage, and associated revenue with this increased electricity generation. In addition the revised rotor exchange process model has been re-used to deliver similar benefits across other assets in the client’s fleet.

Scope of services

We led a project team comprising project management, project controls, specialist technical input and analytical capabilities. The team generated options to reduce the time taken for the LP turbine rotor exchange process and determine the feasibility and benefit of implementing each. The team’s specialists remodelled the LP turbine rotor exchange process through implementing these options to reduce the critical path by more than 15%.
