Gas Turbines Operation and Maintenance

A practical mechanical and rotating equipment course covering gas turbine principles, combustion and hot section and performance and efficiency. Run as a 5-day core or 10-day extended programme, in 16 cities, live online or in-house, and fully customisable for your team.

About this course

Gas Turbines Operation and Maintenance gives delegates a structured, practical understanding of gas turbine principles and combustion and hot section, then builds the skills to apply performance and efficiency, inspection intervals and overhaul and controls and protection in real work. Mechanical engineering courses on rotating and static equipment, codes, welding and inspection for plant engineers and technicians.

Sessions are led by practitioners with at least 15 years in the field, and mix short input with exercises, case studies and group work, so delegates return with methods they can use straight away.

Who should attend

Mechanical engineers, maintenance supervisors, technicians, inspectors and reliability staff. No specialist prerequisites are required for the Practitioner level; Foundation, Advanced and Executive versions are available on request.
