Power Plant Consulting Services
We offer comprehensive plant engineering services, from inspection and
condition assessment, to monitoring and remaining life analysis, and repair.
We utilize economical solutions to keep operations competitive and efficient.
Our
success in both nuclear and non-nuclear consulting projects in the United States has led companies and governments worldwide to call on us to solve their engineering challenges.
Our engineering services include:
- Structural/ Transient Analyses
- Vibration Testing & Analysis
- ASME Code Reviews
- Safety Analyses
- Steam Generator Analysis
- Design Reports for Reactor Head Replacement
- Weld Engineering
Design & Analysis
Our expertise is
high temperature design and analysis
of components - determining structural integrity, limiting operating conditions, and
fatigue design life.
Performing thermal, stress, fatigue, fracture, and finite element modelling,
we have analyzed components as:
- Steam Turbines
- Pressure Vessels, Piping, and Pumps
- Heat Exchangers
- Boilers
- Environmental Equipment
Problem Solving/ Preventive Maintenance
Inspections
and weld and material evaluations to
analyze power plant equipment problems, correcting materials, design,
and maintenance issues. Assessment of the current condition of components and systems, and their remaining
operating life, ensuring structural integrity, thus lowering
operating costs.
Plant Life Extension
Our engineers
perform plant life extension services to
ensure that operating plants can perform well past their design life,
ensuring plant safety.
We have performed engineering analyses and life extension services of
power plants in many applications including:
- Stress corrosion cracking mitigation
- Suitability for Service Evaluation of Welded Structures
- Steam Turbine Failure Analysis
- Steam Boiler Tube Failure Analysis
- Piping Analyses
