(OPS205) Combined Cycle Familiarization/Operations

COMBINED CYCLE FAMILIARIZATION AND OPERATION

Description

Request for Quote

 

The Combined Cycle Familiarization and Operation training program is designed to provide a basic understanding of the equipment and its associated auxiliary systems.  The training will support the installation, startup, and operations of commercial power projects.  The training integrates a combination of classroom instruction and associated system walk downs.  Classroom instruction, while preferred at the customer site, may be accomplished at Siemens Energy training facilities. Plant walk downs can occur only at the customer site.  Operations and maintenance personnel perform functions vital to the safe and efficient operation of a power plant.  In order to fulfill their job responsibilities, they require an understanding of the Siemens Energy turbine-generator system and its interrelationship with the associated balance of plant systems.  The goal of the combined cycle training program is to provide this understanding customized to each customer’s specific site.  All training programs are limited to the Siemens Energy scope of supply.
