The performance, reliability and availability of gas turbines and large compressors all play a critical role in the operation of oil and gas production systems, affecting their revenue and profitability. Detection of any deterioration in the performance of these internal components is of critical importance.

MSE has developed PMS, a Windows-based software system that continuously monitors compressors and gas turbines while providing a rigorous aero-thermodynamic analysis on a component-by-component basis.
PMS is very different from the condition monitoring that is extensively used by both the on and offshore oil and gas industries.
 

The main advantages of the MSE system is its ability to:
 

	Optimise maintenance/overhaul timing
	Minimise turbomachinery's unscheduled downtime
	Improve equipment availability and reliability
	Reduce the need for unnecessary overhauls
	Reduce fuel consumption by optimising engine compressor performance
