CAPTURING THE EXPERIENCES OF AN OM STRATEGY CHANGE WHEN TRANSFERING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DAY TO DAY OM FOR A 1080 MW CCGT POWER STATION FROM THE OEM TO THE OWNER

摘要

This paper has been written from the perspective of an Owners’ (SK E&S) experience when changing their O&M strategy from: a) Purchasing the services of the OEM to perform the day to day operation and maintenance for a 1080 MW CCGT power plant to… b) Doing the day to operations and maintenance themselves at the management and technician/engineer levels. The security of a full LTSA contract may be desirable or even necessary to owners and/or financial institutions who perceive that the risks of operating and maintaining a large CCGT power station are mitigated through this approach. However as owners become more educated and experienced in the skills required to operate and maintain a power station, alternative strategies may become available to those owners. SK E&S had reached a level of competence in O&M that allowed an alternative O&M strategy to be explored, planned and eventually implemented. This paper describes the strategy that was adopted by SK E&S, the reasons behind making this decision, how the strategy was both planned and implemented, the experiences both good and bad, the key risks that arose and how SK E&S addressed the issues.
