Abstract :
The authors describe a system called ORAP (Operational Reliability Analysis Program). ORAP is a reliability, availability, and maintainability reporting system with a specific focus on gas turbines in simple and combined cycle arrangements, for various applications and duty cycles, and across the various manufacturers. A historical review of ORAP, data requirements and reporting is provided, as well as a brief review of how ORAP supports the industry focus on high reliability
