Training issues in the North Sea

The problem:
A global oil company approached Greenray to address a skills gap in their maintenance staff, regarding maintenance of their gas turbines packages installed in various offshore locations. The maintenance teams already had wide ranging skills and experience and the requirement was to bridge the knowledge gap. Our customer requested training that would, refresh their expertise and establish a core understanding throughout the maintenance teams. Our bespoke course was tailored to meet the established need.

Our solution:
We developed a bespoke, structured 3 day course to cover the complete package, meeting requirements specified by the customer. The course included evaluation and assessment, certification, feedback to the customer and reference materials for the delegates.

FPSO vessel, in Equatorial Guinea

The problem:
A customer suffered an ejector steam condenser failure on an FPSO vessel in Equatorial Guinea. Unfortunately, this component had become obsolete and was no longer available through usual supply chains, so Greenray were asked to help with a viable plan to minimise costly downtime on the vessel.

Our solution:
With very limited availability of information and no opportunity to return the failed component to our facilities in the UK, the team worked with the customer using details from their equipment manuals and additional information provided by the operator. Greenray met the challenge and a re-engineered solution, including independently verified design which was provided, preventing the need for time consuming and costly adaptions to the local installation. The ejector steam condenser is a testament to the skilled engineers involved in project.
