Job Summary:

To ensure the safe, vibration-free, and efficient operation of the Steam Turbine and the Turbine Auxiliary Systems (Condenser, CW Pumps, Feed Pumps, Gland Sealing, and Lubrication).

Key Responsibilities:

Turbine Operations:

  • Oversee turbine rolling, synchronization, and loading/unloading operations.
  • Monitor key parameters: Vibration, Bearing Temperature, Eccentricity, and Differential Expansion.

Preventive & Breakdown Maintenance:

  • Plan and execute maintenance of the Turbine Governing System, LP/HP Bypass systems, and Turning Gear.
  • Coordinate specialized jobs such as Turbine Blade inspection, Bearing replacement, and Shaft Alignment (Laser alignment).

Auxiliary Systems Management:
