HRSG Academy June 23-25, 2008   The Depot Minneapolis, Minnesota

Better understand HRSG problems and how to avoid them!

This course focuses on the key points that HRSG operations and maintenance personnel need to keep in mind to minimize forced outages and avoid unnecessary repairs.  We’ll also do our best to make it an adventure!  Our past groups have done off road desert Jeep rides and ocean coast boat cruises.  No golf outings or conference hall dinner gatherings for our group…too boring!!

Will the Academy be worth your while? Of course it will, but don’t take our word for it! Here are some comments from recent attendees:

• Wes Thomasson, Mechanical Engineer (500MW AEC Vann Power Plant), “The HRSG Academy is definitely worthwhile. I benefited from the knowledgeable instructors as well as the interaction with other HRSG owners. I have an abundance of advice, tips, and techniques to take home.”
• Tony Shook, Supt. of Operations (500 MW Combined Cycle Plant), “Great topics, the information has great tips for operators and maintenance people. I learned new key points that will help me next outage. I hope to send more staff to future courses.”
• Ryan Hoog, Plant Engineer CPS Energy, “We wanted a course that would make our HRSG inspections more effective and the Academy gave us exactly what we were looking for and more. Understanding the fundamentals of HRSG design made us better, more confident decision makers both during outages and in our daily operations.”
• Paul Lofton, (1800 MW Facility) Tampa Electric Company, “In my estimation, the HRSG Academy is the premier Heat Recovery Steam Generator Training program in existence today. If you're interested in learning about inspections, maintenance, operations and performance aspects of HRSG's, this training should be your number one choice.”

Whether your plant is old, new or not yet finished, the Academy will give O&M personnel the best and latest information. It’s never too late or too early to extend one’s HRSG knowledge! We’ve analyzed and crawled through hundreds of HRSGs and this course will share “lessons learned.”
