Even when carefully maintained, control and protection systems require upgrades and modernisations from time to time to ensure the continuation of safe and reliable operation. Whether you are looking for a replacement for existing obsolete equipment, maintenance services with a short response time, or improvements in the overall performance of systems, an experienced partner with a local support network and deep knowledge in the field of turbines, generators, and processes is highly valuable.
Fortum’s comprehensive solutions for control and protection systems offer support and expertise throughout your equipment lifetime. We provide a range of services – from smaller inspections to full modernisations of turbine-generators’ control and protection systems, and we can take overall responsibility for your project. As an OEM-independent service provider, we have the ability to service a wide range of equipment from different manufacturers and to define an optimal scope and solution for each specific need. Typically, a modular project execution is an ideal approach since it allows the work to be divided into smaller stages, thereby reducing the risks and complexity involved and ultimately leading to cost savings. The life cycle phase of the equipment also has to be considered. An example of this is replacing parts only after they have reached the end of their lifespan.
