Repair and maintenance with minimal downtime

Brno

Brno Service profits from close, direct and long-time relations to customers (history of steam turbine production and service in Brno is more than 100 years long). As a result of such relations, the amount of contracts won in the financial year 2006/2007 came close to the amount of 1 billion CZK.

Among the interesting projects ranks the contract for a retrofit of a turbine for Mittal Steel Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina; this turbine was originally produced by Jugoturbina Karlovac, Croatia, (Alstom). The order amounting to ca 6 million EUR shall become the first project of retrofits of “competitor” turbines that are to be within the competence of the Brno Service as the only one in the entire Siemens.

Currently, the Service employs 70 people. Owing to the ever increasing amount of orders, the plan is to increase the number of employees working in the turbine servicing, namely by dozens more in the whole range of professions.
