Report

Purpose and Procedure for Drafting the Document

What Is a Gas Turbine Inspection Report?

A gas turbine inspection report is a structured document used to record the condition of gas turbine components after a defined number of operating hours. It covers compressor, combustor, turbine section, and bearing inspections, along with performance measurements and an overall assessment.

Who Uses This Report?

Gas turbine engineers, plant managers, and maintenance teams use this report to document inspection results and plan maintenance actions. It is commonly used in power plants, industrial facilities, and oil and gas installations.

Key Sections in the Template

The template includes sections for inspection identification, participants, compressor inspection, combustor inspection, turbine section inspection, bearing inspection, performance measurements, overall assessment, and signatures. Each section contains fields for condition ratings, defects, observations, and photos.

Power Generation Plants

Gas turbine inspection reports are essential for power plants that rely on gas turbines for electricity generation. They help track component wear and schedule overhauls.

Oil and Gas Facilities

In oil and gas operations, gas turbines drive compressors and generators. Regular inspections ensure reliability and prevent unplanned downtime.

Industrial Cogeneration

Cogeneration plants that produce both heat and power use gas turbines. Inspection reports support maintenance planning and regulatory compliance.

Marine Propulsion

Gas turbines used for ship propulsion require periodic inspections. This template can be adapted for marine applications.

  1. 1

    Prepare for Inspection

    Ensure the turbine is shut down and cooled. Gather necessary tools, borescope equipment, and the inspection template.

  2. 2

    Inspect Components

    Visually inspect compressor blades, combustor liners, turbine blades, and bearings. Record condition, defects, and observations.

  3. 3

    Measure Performance

    Record exhaust gas temperature, compressor discharge pressure, vibration levels, and fuel consumption.

  4. 4

    Complete and Sign Report

    Summarize findings, provide recommendations, and obtain signatures from the gas turbine engineer and plant manager.

Photo Report Generator

Use the photo report generator to add structured photo evidence to your gas turbine inspection report. Capture images of blades, liners, and defects with automatic captions.

Create Photo Report

Mobile Photo Documentation App

The mobile photo documentation app allows you to take and organize photos directly on site, making it easy to attach visual evidence to your inspection report.
