Modernization and Upgrades programs from Siemens Energy help operators in preserving valuable resources while maintaining their systems at peak levels of efficiency, reliability, and availability as well as power, flexibility, and environment-friendliness – with OEM-quality services.

Footprints and revamps are optimal when your:

Present steam turbine cannot be modified for technical reasons
The casing and steam admission components have reached the end of their service lifetime and need to be replaced
Your turbine can no longer be operated continuously under design conditions
Inspections and overhauls on older turbines may take longer than scheduled because of unexpected findings

Options for modernizing aging steam turbines

Footprint Solutions

A “footprint” turbine is a replacement turbine which does not require any significant modifications to be made to the existing base frame or foundation. The existing oil system, gearbox and driven machine (generator, compressor, etc.) can also continue to be used with no, or only minor ones. If necessary, they can be adapted to the new operating parameters.

Turbine Revamp

A “revamp” is the replacement of the steam path for optimization of turbine performance.
