OVERHAULING OF PT (POWER TURBINE)
What is the purpose of overhauling?
Overhauling of a machine is defined as a process of general maintenance performed on a machine or other industrial equipment.
The goal of overhauling is to keep the system in serviceable condition. Regular checks can prevent all kinds of critical damage.
PROCEDURE OF RT56 PT OVERHAULING
• The overhauling of PT starts with pre-shutdown activities.
• Pre- shutdown parameters like vibration and temperature valves are noted down before
shutting down the system.
• Shutdown by isolation of electrical and instrument systems and also positive isolation of
fuel gas system.
• Draining of fuel gas to the pipelines and positive isolation of fuel gas system.
• Isolation of all the compressor inlet and outlet pipelines.
• Removal of starter shaft along with inlet bullet.
• Removal of all bleed pipelines lube oil supply and drain lines
• Removal of guide vane control system of Gas Generator
• Removal of rim cooling piping’s connected between g,g and p,t

thrust collar

inspection of new pt and inlet diffuser by Third party
inspector.

of pt rotor.
• Installation of dummy shipping bearing to pt shaft to hold
the pt shaft.

meter.
• Installation of outer bearing covers and
coupling guard adaptors to lock coupling
guard.
• Installation of coupling guard.
• Installation of G.G to the enclosure and
starter shaft to the motor which can run at
2500 to 3000 RPM.
• Commissioning is done.
• Which include 72hrs running of pt and
monitoring vibration and temperature
parameters.
INSTRUMENTS USED
 Vibration probes
 Speed pickup probes
 RTD
 Pressure sensors
 Thermocouples
MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
 Vernier caliper
 Depth gauge
 Outside micrometer
 Inside micrometer
 Feller gauge
 Spirit level
PROBLEM FACED
COUPLING HUB REMOVAL
• Couplings are mechanical components used
to connect two in-line shafts to enable one
shaft to drive another at the same speed.
• Hubs that are not provided with a keyway
receive (or transmit) the torque from the
shaft through friction. Hence, the hubs must
grip the shaft tightly. This gripping is
accomplished by advancing the hub on the
tapered shaft a specified amount. To
facilitate this advance one must expand the
hub bore. Two methods are used most often:
heating or hydraulic pressure.
• When hydraulic pressure is used, a few
specialized tools are needed. Basically, they
are installation tools, a high-pressure oil
pump with a pressure gauge, and a low-
pressure pump with a pressure gauge.
• Here we used both hydraulic and heating
methods.
• The problem faced was that the hub was not
removed from the shaft because the oil ring
was damaged it can’t sustain the 28000psi.
The oil is leaking when it reaches the
20000psi. All we had found out was that if
we increase the viscosity of oil we are used
to removing the hub. To increase the
viscosity of oil we mix the oil with grease.
By Increasing the viscosity of oil it blocks
the leakage of oil from the oil ring and by
applying the 28000psi the hub is removed.
CONCLUSION
The internship of duration 12 weeks at NQO ONGC Offshore Mumbai high (India) has helped
me to develop a better understanding about the process gas compressor Machine (PGC) and P.T
overhauling. I have gained technical knowledge regarding PGC machine how it transfer the oil
to MUT line and the Overhauling of P.T. This internship connects the knowledge I learned in the
classroom with real life applications which gives me ultimate experience. My concept regarding
Gas turbine, PGC and PT was not that clear but when I joined the internship then I got to know
what actual scenario is going on in this field with detailed description. This internship has taught
me the importance of managerial and supervisors’ skill and team work in the offshore plant
impossible. This internship has truly been outstanding and benefitted me for the future.
