Work Scope:
Issue:
BSV had mobilised to changeout fabric expansion joints, however, when old fabric bellows were removed the flanges were so badly corroded they disintegrated and would not take the new bolts therefore new fabric bellows could not be fitted.
Resolution:
BSV fitted temporary wraps until new expansion joint assemblies were fabricated by BSV to allow the gas turbine to run.
