Material selection is a key factor in gas turbine performance and lifecycle cost because it has a central influence in the maintenance of the gas turbine. 1 Further, the operation of a gas turbine does result in gas path degradation 2 that impacts lifecycle costs and eventually design, manufacture, material choice and maintenance. 3 A component
Incumbent should know different turbine component repair processes and key quality control steps in addition to ability to identify spare parts required for turbines, generators, and their auxiliaries maintenance. Experience in the mechanical design, troubleshooting and major repair of oil and gas rotating equipment such as Gas and Steam turbine.
Traditional gas turbine maintenance relies on a combination of scheduled inspections and reactive approaches. Scheduled inspections, while helpful in identifying potential issues before failure, can lead to unnecessary downtime and maintenance costs, particularly for components with minimal wear ( Floreale et al., 2024 ).

The recommended maintenance of most manufacturers for heavy-duty gas turbines is oriented toward: Periodic maintenance is also required for control devices, fuel-metering equipment, and gas turbine auxiliaries. The main contributors of downtime are normally controls and accessories, combustor, turbine, generator, and the balance of the plant.
The aim of proper gas turbine maintenance is generally to enhance the productivity of the facility for the long-term. Following the laid down maintenance and repair procedures will bring the following benefits:
Turbin gas tersusun atas komponen-komponen utama seperti air inlet section, compressor section, combustion section, turbine section, dan exhaust section. Sedangkan komponen pendukung turbin gas adalah starting equipment, lube-oil system, cooling system, dan beberapa komponen pendukung lainnya.
A majority of the centrifugal compressors in use (such as those in small turbines), produce pressure ratios in the range of 1.2:1 to 4.5:1 in a single stage. A typical centrifugal compressor stage consists of an impeller or rotor and a diffuser. At the entrance to the impeller is the inducer where the fluid enters.
The recommended maintenance intervals are similar for most makes of gas turbines. These are: Combustor inspection at 8,000 equivalent operating hours (EOH) Hot gas path component at 24,000 EOH. Major inspection at around 48,000 to 50,000 EOH. However, different manufacturers apply different rules with respect to arriving at the equivalent
