Paper Mill Reopening

Just over a year ago the Phoenix Paper Mill in Wickliffe, Kentucky made their first roll of bleached hardwood pulp since their re-opening in 2019.  We are proud to have helped the mill get their turbines back in operating condition, and thankful for the opportunity to be of service.  The mill is vital to the Wickliffe community and provided over 200 jobs after the reopening.  Now that we just passed the one-year anniversary of their initial production run, it’s amazing to look back on the work we put in, as well as the work every other employee and contractor put in during that time.  Congratulations on the one year anniversary Phoenix Paper!

Summertime is almost here!  That means summer run season is beginning and many turbine generator sets will be in operation over these next few months.  While the units are in operation that provides facilities with the opportunity check some items off of the to-do list.  We offer a variety of non-turbine outage services during the summer months.  Please see our common summer services below and let us know if there is anything we can help you accomplish.

ABB Steam Turbine Inspections

 

We have performed a number of inspections on ABB Steam Turbines over the years.  We’ve worked on various size ranges, from Industrial to Utility units.  Our Technical Field Advisors are very knowledgeable on the details of the ABB Steam Turbines and the specific procedures to be used for successful disassembly and reassembly of these units.

We attribute our success to our people.  We keep our project teams together as they travel to different job sites around the country.  Our Project Management teams consist of Technical Field Advisors, a Project Coordinator, and Turbine Mechanic Foreman.  The Turbine Mechanic Foreman all have a core group of Turbine Mechanics that travel with them to each job site.   These project teams work together on a regular basis, getting to know one another’s strengths and weaknesses, and look out for each other’s safety.  This continuity of personnel is reflected by our excellent quality and safety record, and is the reason for us being able to deliver successful outages to our customers.

This project team philosophy translates well to inspections of all turbine types, but particularly to the smaller fleets where expertise and continuity can be hard to find.  If you have an inspection coming up on your ABB Steam Turbine please contact us today and learn more about how we will provide you with a successful outage performance.
