Power Plants Reliable Operations and Maintenance Strategies are of paramount importance to achieve overall effectiveness in plant objectives ensuring minimum downtimes and maintenance cost optimization. The variety of Equipment such as Gas Turbines, HRSGs , Boilers , Steam Turbines , Generators , Transformers , pumps , compressors brings certain complexities when identifying problems and conducting the specific maintenance requirements. This program is designed to assist the Operational & Maintenance management, technicians and engineers in identifying the various Power Plant Operating Performance and Functional parameters, Plant Reliability considerations, and Tools as part of APMS Program development and implementations, Criticalities and Failure modes, consequences and mitigation characteristics.

The program is specifically designed for New, Medium, and Aged Plants and will help participants in developing a APMS Program, Proactive Maintenance and Reliability program with embedded RCM-III methodology & implementation for the whole Plant with emphasis on Specific Equipment plans, Condition Based Maintenance. Participants will also be provided understanding of Preventive and Predictive Maintenance programs with analysis of Condition Monitoring data and further corrections in Maintenance Program, introduction of RBM (Risk Based Maintenance) for the optimization of Power Plant Maintenance schedule.

Power Plant Bad Actors management programs with emphasis on Trips, Performance variations, Load cycling its effects, Turn Around Work-Scopes Optimization techniques will supplement the course with Practical Discussions. A thorough insight into the Current Asset Management Practices GAPS and resolution, APMS Processes, APMS Domains, Maintenance cost and life cycle analysis will supplement the course. Advanced Predictive and Preventive methodologies, Remaining Life Assessments, Evaluations and Recommendations and Equipment Repair and Replacement decisions as part of Power Generation Plant will be discussed in depth. The Asset Management model as applied to Power Plant equipment as part of APMS strategies will be discussed in detail with reference to ISO 55000 recommendations.
