Lifecycle Optimization for Centrifugal Air Compressors
Episode 4: Advances in Instrumentation & Monitoring
Advances in instrumentation and monitoring are changing how operators understand compressor health and plan maintenance. Greater visibility into equipment condition can help teams recognize developing issues and make more informed decisions about aging assets.
In Episode 4 of Turbomachinery International’s Peer Exchange® series, Wael Al Mandarawi of ADNOC, Omar Al-Essa of Saudi Aramco, and Shady Saeed of FS-Elliott discuss the shift toward condition-based maintenance, the role of AI and machine learning, and the value of modern monitoring tools.
Watch to explore how these capabilities, and advances in manufacturing and performance simulation, are creating opportunities to modernize existing compressors and extend their useful life.
