“Following up from our Spring outage, I wanted to thank you and your team at Viking for engineering, constructing, and installing new reheat headers. I appreciate the attention to detail when it came to the Finite Element Analysis (FEA).

I was surprised to learn that the tube to header connection designed by Viking was 53% stronger than the OEM connection. We received proposals from competitors with conventional installation methods that averaged installation times for 6-8 weeks. The Viking team was able to install these headers in 5 days. Finding contractors that can complete work within our original outage window is paramount in the ERCOT market. I look forward to using Viking for additional repairs, and replacements in the future. To date we have over 150 starts, and a significant amount of baseload operation without a single failure since installation. We have conducted two inspections since installation, and there are no signs of premature failure, or unanticipated wear / stress.”

“Reference letter: Tuff Tube Transition solution by Viking Vessel.

As Bouchain CCGT Mechanical Manager, I am writing this letter to recommend services and TTT solution from Viking Vessel.

We are installing, with onsite Viking Vessel QA and QC support, 204 TTHC on a highly stressed HP economizer following several leaks occurring in operation last year. I can recommend Viking Vessel for their high level of commitment and professionalism in the design and on field services. They proposed to Bouchain power plant a solution tailored to the need in a very short time. Thanks to this solution, the life span of the exchanger is expected to be 8 times more, compared to the original design.”
