Overview

The use of Gas Turbines in the areas of Power Generation, Petrochemical and Pipeline Industries has increased considerably in the last few years. The development, in particular, of Combined Cycle and Combined Heat and Power applications has accelerated the use of Industrial Gas Turbines. This course will cover the operations of the various types of Gas Turbine and Gas Turbine applications. The focus of this course will involve the monitoring of the performance of these machines, analysing their operation, cost management and cost reduction.

Who Should Attend

An essential course for those managers/engineers involved in the operations of Gas Turbines. This course will also be of considerable value to those shift leaders/engineers seeking to gain a better understanding of operational concepts and management. Maintenance engineers seeking to further their career in Operations Management will also benefit from attending this course.
