Combustion Turbines
East Coast Management,
Inc., has a varied and in-depth combustion turbine overhaul experience.
These include many OEM units such as:
Westinghouse
GE
Siemens
ABB
We have performed all types of gas turbine inspections including: Combustion, Hot Gas Path, Major Inspections, and Major Rebuilds.
In particular, ECM has overhauled all fourteen of Metropolitan Edison's gas turbines (GE Frame 5s). The following services were provided:
- Removed wiring/conduits, purchased new- and installed with new Westinghouse
- Replaced turbine stacks
- Disassembled the turbines and the generators
- Modified and repaired turbine components
- Provided field machining
- Reassembled and realigned all components
- Provided start-up services
This work was the subject "Combustion - Turbine Overhaul Plan Relies on Organization" that was published in Electrical World's April 1992 edition.
The article discussed the success of the overhauls in terms of " team effort focused on productivity and flexibility", "advantages in terms of labor cost, and efficiency." The article went on to say that East Coast Management, Inc. "helped develop a more integrated approach", "paying attention to the little, seemingly unrelated details, that make the job go smoothly".

ECM has successfully maintained and overhauled Commonwealth Edison's fleet of gas turbines for a long term contract over several years including units at the following stations: Calumet, Electric Junction, Bloom, Joliet, Crawford, and Lombard.
