End of the first outage....Start of the second ! HALF WAY THERE



I apologize for not updating my blog after the 23rd day of the outage but things were getting hectic with startup. We lit off on gas successfully and also on liquid fuel.. FIRE the FIRST TRY.
We've started tearing into the second unit this week and I'll update my blog with key events rather than daily reports. Week 6... Three more to go..hopefully!
Here is a photo of a fully assembled turbine with all of the piping intact. You can definately get a feel of how labor intensive working on a dual fuel machine is.
Lessons learned, spend time to match mark and label everything before tearing into the unit. It will save time in the long run and installation process!
