Steam Path Audit

Optimize Performance & Reliability

A GE steam path audit helps power plant owners maintain the optimum performance and reliable operation of their steam turbine units. The audit provides the detailed analysis and qualified recommendations you need to make the most cost-effective repair and maintenance decisions possible during an outage. The audit identifies repair and replacement options to recover steam path efficiency, restore electrical output capacity and help assess the structural integrity of the machine.

Features & Benefits

Our team of highly trained experts is qualified to conduct both thermal and structural evaluations and provide recommendations based on the findings. In addition, the team identifies and quantifies recoverable and unrecoverable steam path efficiency losses. With a proven process, the audit is customizable to the outage objectives. The audit process includes both a thermal evaluation and a structural evaluation.

A steam path audit can help you:

  • Recover lost performance by increasing turbine efficiency and output
  • Reduce fuel costs through recoverable performance gains and associated fuel savings
  • Avoid lengthy unplanned outages with spare parts ordering recommendations
  • Optimize operation and maintenance strategies by identifying and prioritizing replacements and repairs, recommending operating intervals and determining the most cost-effective repair methods
  • Enhance plant reliability through recommendations to restore turbine performance
  • Make better repair and replacement decisions based on estimated recoverable and non-recoverable losses
