Challenges

The Equipment Health and Condition Assessments project for the client focused on enhancing the reliability and efficiency of its thermal generation fleet.

Solutions

ENTRUST partnered with the client to support the development of an asset management and condition-based maintenance program, identifying key risks and providing actionable insights. This proactive approach ensures long-term operational stability, helping the client deliver reliable energy to its customers.

ENTRUST conducted health assessments across the client’s thermal generation fleet, leveraging its extensive project database and decades of experience with similar systems. The team provided weighted risk ratings for equipment conditions, using available data and advanced engineering techniques to identify critical vulnerabilities. These ratings allowed the client to prioritize maintenance and capital expenditures effectively, addressing issues before they could escalate into costly disruptions.

To overcome challenges with historical record inconsistencies, ENTRUST used its expertise and past design knowledge to assess current fleet conditions accurately. This approach led to the creation of an asset management program tailored to the unique needs of the client’s fleet.
