STRUCTURAL BLADE ROOT REPAIR AND REFURBISHMENT
OVERVIEW
Our client approached us with an issue
relating to a manufacturing fault in some of
their blades – 60 in total. The blades would
have to be dismounted from the turbine
then transported to a suitable place for
repair, and the client did not have premises
where the blades could be repaired.
THE COAST APPROACH
We provided blade technicians to conduct
a repair to the customer specification, as
well as a climate-controlled unit to carry
out the job, which we prepared for arrival
of the blades.
We transported the blades safely to our
climate-controlled unit, then structurally
repaired and completely refurbished each
blade, including a new paint finish.
We worked with the client to develop
solutions for all problems faced, ensuring
a smooth process and that the was
completed within the required timescales.
RESULTS
DELIVERABLES
We provided an integrated solution
for the client, giving them advice on
transport and storage, and providing a
central base to store the blades.
We saved the customer the cost of hiring
a climate-controlled unit, significant
transport costs and were able to provide
a quick and efficient turn around on the
repair.
We extended the life cycle of the blades,
which keeps the turbine operating and
produces power.
Blades were repaired and their lifecycle extended.
