There is a high probability that you can generate more profit from your power station

CHASE International would like to help you to examine the issues surrounding critical valve applications in CCGT power plants, in
particular plants with Alstom GT 24 and GT 26 turbines.

We look at the causes of common issues and then discuss innovative, proven solutions.

What we would like to do for your installation and how:

  • We would like to help you to improve the total efficiency of your installation and to reduce maintenance and operational costs.
  • We would like to help you to go through your system and
    review your design and current parameters, operational hours and hardware.
  • Based on the information gathered we will be able to provide you with proposals for improvements.

The annual financial benefits can vary from relatively small to substantial. However, even smaller benefits can make a substantial contribution to your profitability, especially when keeping in mind that these benefits will be there year after year.
