GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today celebrated the opening of a new Repair Service Center in the Parque industrial Centenario, in the Neuquén Province, Argentina. The new facility marks GE Vernova’s first repair center for GE Vernova’s Aeroderivative business in Latin America and is expected to boost repair capabilities for GE Vernova’s aero derivatives gas turbines fleet based in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay.
Owners of aero derivative gas turbines in these countries can benefit from significant improvements to lead time and delivery of repaired components in support of their outage needs. Aero derivative gas turbines will no longer need to be shipped to a repair center outside of Latin America, which may result in substantial reduction - which can be up to a year - of component delivery times.
“This project is aligned to GE Vernova plans to expand its gas turbine repair capabilities globally,” according to Luis Leal, General Manager Aero Services Americas, Gas Power GE Vernova. “By applying lean practices and advanced repair technologies, our Repair Service Center in Centenario can set a new benchmark for repair excellence. The new facility will help us to better serve our customers and ensure that our legacy equipment remains competitive, while effectively addressing the support and maintenance needs throughout southern Latin America.”
