Two Case Studies on Unique Machinery Repair Techniques: Brush Plating Repair of Eroded Compressor Diaphragm - Combining 2 Failed Gearboxes into 1 Functional and Reliable Gearbox

Case StudyCase Study 2: When machinery challenges arise in aging equipment within declining oil and gas facilities it requires innovative solutions taking into account life expectancy, production impact and declining production to establish fit for purpose solutions. With good engineering, unique repairs can help limit production impact, extend equipment life and provide a more robust solution for current operating conditions. Two case studies of novel equipment repairs are presented to demonstrate these principles: 1. Brush Plating Repair of Eroded Compressor Diaphragm; and, 2. Combining Two Failed Gearboxes into One Functional and Reliable Gearbox. Focus was on restoring safe and reliable operatio
