outage season

The Spring has come already and as usually this time during the year, a couple of new overhaul projects have been started. I have taken part in some of them:
- reapair and machining of the axial bearing,
- assembly and machining of the modernized steam glands (retractable seals),
- welding and machining of the rotor.

This last one is especially intersting as the rotor after welding has to be fixed in vertical position for PWHT. I think, such advanced rotor repair is uniqe and my company is the only one in this part of world, able to perform it ( Am I wrong? Please advice).
I wanted to post complete report, I did after small repair back prassure turbine - too much work just now but having more time I will do it.
