Sulzer Services recently performed critical repairs on a completely failed 100-year-old 5MW turbine in West Java. The turbine repair served to both restore the renewable energy supply to the local community and wider grid and reduce expected downtime for the customer by seven months.

Global demand for essential products like water, gas and oil is growing, which means that pipelines and processing plants such as pressure vessels are getting bigger. To ensure continuity of supply and minimise downtime, maintenance teams need to gain safe and rapid access to critical plants that require servicing or repair.
