Equipment model
9F.03
Working in partnership with our Client we delivered the engine hot section upgrade, outside of any transactional or contractual support from OEM. Learn how we did it.
The Challange
Our Client wanted to fully utilize their existing inventory of upgraded hot gas path parts to gain a competitive market advantage. At the same time, however, they did not wish to utilize Original Equipment Manufacturer or Independent Service Providers without a proven track record of supporting 9F-class engines. The engines also required specialized on-site machining services to allow for an upgrade implementation.
The Results
DeveEnergy in partnership with the Client undertook the challenge of performing the upgrade inspection, by providing project planning, project management and technical advisory services. In addition, we worked closely with the Client to build a local and international supply chain capable of fulfilling the outage requirements in the areas like manpower supply or specialixed on-site machining.
