Periodic health inspection for LM2500(+)

LM2500 (+, DLE) gas turbines require regular periodic inspections to ensure their ongoing effective operation over time. VBR independent periodic health inspections surpass traditional periodic or borescope inspections in the following ways:

  • Fully independent perspective (especially important with engines under warranty)
  • Dedicated improved work scope
  • Very cost effective
  • Tailor-made recommendations
  • All recommendations & reports available 24/7

Hot section exchange

The LM2500(+) gas turbine is extremely reliable and long lasting. Nevertheless, it is inevitable that at a certain point the hot section is no longer adequate and needs to be overhauled or replaced. Shutting down the operation and shipping the engine to a OEM licensed overhaul depot is very costly and time consuming. VBR Turbine Partners provide an alternative with our on-site hot section inspection and exchange services. Read more about cost-effective solutions at our Hot section exchange on-site page.

Emission reduction retrofits

Owners and operators of older non-DLE LM2500(+) gas turbines in Europe will need to apply some form of emission reduction retrofit to comply with the NOx emission legislation of the European Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). For a LM2500(+) fitted with a properly dimensioned steam injection system, VBR provides a smart optimized steam injection retrofit as a cost-effective solution to comply with the IED.

Troubleshooting & problem solving

VBR Turbine Partners are a competence center for improving maintenance on General Electric LM2500(+) aero-derivative gas turbines. With our know-how, technical consultants and experienced engineers we can assess in a very effective way how to solve issues and disruptions with your engine as quickly as possible.
