VGB Conference "Steam Turbines and Operation of Steam Turbines 2012" with technical exhibition

The VGB Conference "Steam Turbines and Operation of Steam Turbines 2012" takes place in “Fischauktionshalle” in Hamburg on May 15/16, 2012.

Aim of the conference is to ensure the steam turbine operation on a high availability and effectiveness also in the future.

Changes of the market and the reactions on the manufacturer and operator side as well as in the complete service sector make this experience exchange still more necessary.

The conference is aimed at manufacturers, planners, operators, insurers and experts interested in technology and its environment, researcher and authorities.

The main issues are:

• Major Overhaul
• Damages on LP turbines
• Damages on steam turbines by salt deposition
• Modernization of old steam turbines
• Requirements on the cold-start capability on steam turbines
• New developments in the field of the condenser pipes
• Experiences during commissioning of new Turbo Sets
• Varnish in Turbine oils

As in previous years, our Co-operation partners will present themselves at a technical exhibition which will be part of the conference. During discussions at the stands and during the events accompanying the conference, all participants will have the possibility for intense exchange of ideas and for fostering and extending business relations with the service companies present.

This conference offers further aspects and chances for professional exchange, also beyond steam turbine operation.

VGB PowerTech e.V. looks forward to welcoming you at our conference.
