On the western tip of Singapore, there’s a sprawling facility that began life in the 1970s as a shipyard for tugboats and drill ships exploring the turquoise deeps of the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea. But the site’s days as a local repair shop are no longer. GE’s Global Repair Solutions Singapore (GRSS) is now a global hub for fixing the key components in the world’s fastest-growing fleet of H-class heavy-duty gas turbines.
GE has more than 7,000 gas turbines installed in countries all around the world that generate much of their power. But that global footprint also requires a complex maintenance system to help customers keep those turbines online.
