GE Gas Turbine Operations – Simulation Based
24 - 28 September 2012, Kuala Lumpur

Course Overview
This 5 day simulation based training course covers the operations of a GE Gas Turbine. The course will introduce the
student to the major components of a GE Gas Turbine and its associated systems. The use of a Gas Turbine simulator
will allow students to view various operational problems and introduce the concepts of troubleshooting and fault
finding.

This course provides participants with practical hands-on training in operating gas turbine power plants under normal
and abnormal conditions. Participants learn safe and efficient plant operation methods, plant startup, normal
operation, plant shutdown, and dealing with typical problems that occur in gas turbine power plants. The training is
conducted using advanced real-time simulators that simulate typical plant problems in a realistic environment for the
participants to understand, analyse, troubleshoot and respond to the problems. Participants are required to deal with
associated alarms, analyse and discuss the cause and the effects of the problem scenario and to take corrective
actions to restore the plant to normal conditions.

Simulation-based training is one of the most effective methods of training the operations personnel of industrial
plants. Simulators allow plant personnel to observe the consequences of their actions without any direct impact on
actual plant operations. Through simulation-based exercises, trainees can learn how to respond to emergencies and
how individual actions and decisions affect entire processes in an environment that mirrors situations they would
normally encounter in a plant or facility.

The course will use a MK VI Speedtronic Simulator but other Speedtronic systems will be referenced during the
course including MK II, MK IV and MK V Speedtronic Control Systems

Your key learning outcomes from attending this 5 day training course:
 Get familiar with the types of GE Gas Turbines and their applications.
 Understand and read Gas Turbine schematics and identify instrumentation devices/uses.
 Acquire knowledge of the various GE Gas Turbine Systems and explain operating requirements for Lube Oil,
Hydraulic Oil and Fuel Systems.
 Be able to explain startup, synchronising and loading procedures
 Learn the benefit of capturing turbine data and using this data as regards performance evaluation.
 Appreciate the principles of emissions control and the various methods of achieving this
- Identify the main causes of turbine trips including vibration, overtemperature, combustion profiling
Who Should Attend
This is an excellent course for plant operators/technicians responsible for the day-to-day operations of a Gas Turbine. The
course will also benefit maintenance personnel who are involved in the troubleshooting of operational problems. Shift
supervisors and Team Leaders will also find the course beneficial
.
