How often do you schedule hot gas path (HGP) inspections? We’re trying to balance operational efficiency with minimizing downtime.
We aim for every 8,000 fired hours or 400 starts, whichever comes first. Regular borescope checks in between help catch potential issues.
Consider basing your schedule on equivalent operating hours (EOH). It accounts for varying operational conditions like starts and stops.
We use predictive analytics to optimize our schedule. It’s been great for extending intervals without increasing risk.
