Dear Colleague,
There has never been more of a need for operators of CCGT power plants to gather and discuss strategies and approaches towards cutting operating costs and improving plant flexibility. Join us on November 27 - 29, 2013 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for the O&M and Lifecycle Management for CCGT Power Plants conference. This event will be the Asia-Pacific focal point for discussion of the key strategic and operational issues currently impacting the CCGT market. Meet with major power plant operators from across the region and debate how you can best reduce cost, maximise flexibility and extend plant and gas turbine life in order to tackle the current market challenges. Operationally focussed case studies will offer you insight into CCGT fleet management challenges; gas turbine life extension; reducing maintenance spend without impacting plant availability; CCGT outage management best practice; LTSA vs third party contracting; the impact of flexible operations on O&M, and more. This event is an open forum for all operators, OEMs and third party service providers to debate the key strategic themes currently facing the combined cycle community. With a vendor exhibition, multiple networking opportunities - including our conference evening event - and attendance from major operators from across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond, don't miss this opportunity to join the leading Asia-Pacific CCGT conference in 2013.
Further sponsorship and exhibition opportunities are currently available on a first-come first-served basis.

PRE-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP
Wednesday, November 27, 2013
This workshop will run from 9:00am - 5:00pm. Refreshments and lunch will be provided. Reliable Approaches for Extending the Operational Life of Modern Power Generation Turbine Blades
This one day workshop, led by ERA Technology will deliver a comprehensive overview of advanced approaches to extend the operational life of capital intensive hot gas path parts of modern power generation gas turbines. The workshop will highlight many alternative options for turbines up to 300MW, with components manufactured from conventional, Directional Solidification (DS) and Single Crystal (SC) technologies. The workshop offers attendees a unique opportunity to discover how operational costs can be reduced by stepping up repair and coating technologies, including microstructural rejuvenations of the superalloys.
This workshop is fully interactive and will present several examples and case studies from heavy duty gas turbines from a range of types and technologies operating worldwide. Review the principals of superalloys and coatings, as well as the most advanced repair processes and modifications. Leave the workshop fully informed on how you can increase the durability of parts and reduce your maintenance costs. At a time when operators must take advantage of every opportunity to reduce spend without impacting plant availability and reliability, attendance at this workshop will provide a substantial commercial incentive for plant engineers and managers to reuse service run components beyond the notional design life.
Workshop Leader:
Dr. Siavash Pahlavanyali, Gas Turbine Principal Metallurgist, ERA Technology
Dr Siavash Pahlavanyali has been working on gas turbine components for around 20 years. As a research associate at Cambridge University (since 2003) he was involved in a Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue Program. Siavash then worked at Rolls-Royce UTP at Cambridge University on a range of coating and advanced superalloys. He joined ERA Technology in 2008 and has been involved in gas turbine failure assessments, and lifing turbine critical components such as blades and rotors and relevant repair/rejuvenation processes. He has long experiences of damage and degradation of gas turbines and reliable operation of the machines from 3MW up to 300MW.
