Gas Turbine Modernisations and Upgrades
GTE is uniquely qualified to assist in the optimisation of gas turbines, their auxiliaries and the balance of plant by modifying or upgrading existing facilities. GTE can solve problems and make recommendations concerning opportunities for gain not yet considered.
The GTE technology team is the heart of the modernisations and upgrades offering. It is headed up and staffed by highly-recognised and trusted, proven, unbiased, affordable and independent leaders in the gas turbine power generation industry. The team has been quietly creating, inventing and commercialising products and services for years. GTE seeks, and currently works with, OEM's, middle market and O&M providers, fleet owners, and individual operators regarding issues related to compressors, controls, and balance of plant and auxiliaries.

Combustion Turbine Auxiliaries
GTE has a long and successful history of supplying integrated modular process skid solutions to OEMs in the power generation industry. GTE and its subsidiary companies have shipped thousands of systems to more than 1,200 sites around the world. The company is an approved supplier to most of the power generation OEMs and many other companies in Aerospace, Pharmaceutical, and Oil and Gas industries.
An auxiliary system is often referred to as integrated modular skid, or just skid. It is a self-contained system designed and engineered to meet functional requirements in a cost-effective manner by incorporating the required mechanical equipment, valves, controls, piping, wiring, and other components onto a single structural base. This significantly decreases field assembly since only minimal piping electrical connections are required once the skid is at the work site.
GTE maintains a staff of over 30+ engineers and designers with backgrounds in mechanical and electrical engineering, fluid systems, and instrumentation & controls. Employing the latest 3-D modeling and analysis software allows easy solution of interference issues, parametric control of design changes and optimisation of the fabrication process. Working with conceptual ideas, we provide you with a complete design to meet operating requirements and work with your existing design to provide lower cost alternatives. We review all aspects of the design to ensure that nothing is over-specified, thereby eliminating unnecessary cost.
Our numerous commercial arrangements ensure the best prices for components within the skid. The ability to source these components from GTE's Industrial Parts Supply group continues to allow a competitive advantage.
 Examples of auxiliary systems
are as follows:
• Lube Oil Water Injection
• Gas Conditioning
• Fogging
• Fuel Forwarding, Metering and Mixing
• Prefabricated Piping and Tubing
• Pumping Skids
All skids manufactured by GTE are fully inspected by our quality team. We provide all levels of inspections and testing, from simple continuity and leak checks to full scale flow and performance testing.

Industrial Parts and Supply
GTE is a direct source for fluid, instrument and electrical control components for the Balance of Plant and Auxiliaries.
GTE has catalogued most Balance of Plant and Auxiliary configurations and can rapidly locate and source parts. If we have not catalogued your application, a site visit can correct the situation and get the part identified. This saves operation costs and improves availability.
Our extensive knowledge and history of Balance of Plant and Auxiliary systems for OEMs and EPCs have provided GTE with extensive knowledge of the systems and their parts makeup. Parts databases have been developed over the years for ease of cross-reference from private label part numbers.
