Combined Cycle Solutions, LLC

About Me...Your Power Plant Consultant and Specialist Hello generator operators and owners, My name is Mark Barrett and I help power plants solve problems and close gaps. Here’s what I can do for your power plant: - Reduced Control Room workload due to easier, more effective process control. Controls work the way they should. I have 27 years’ experience across 6 different DCS systems, building logic, graphics, and tuning process control loops. - Better corrosion control resulting in less downtime, less repair costs, and optimized chemicals cost (only the chemicals you really need). I’m a subject matter expert in HRSG water chemistry and demineralized water. I’ve set up programs, corrected problems, and provided operator training to several combined cycle facilities. - I can reduce the management team’s workload by handling your facility’s NERC compliance. This includes PRC & CIP standards compliance assistance, gap (audit) analysis, and facility reporting. As an Operations Manager, NERC compliance was my biggest time committment, consuming about one-third of my time. - No repeat incidents. Using Root Cause Analysis (RCA) cause mapping we can identify an incident’s root causes along with solutions. - I can solve your problem because I’ve seen a lot of different things with over 30 years’ of technical and process troubleshooting across the power generation, gasification, and refining industries. Companies I've worked for include: - Ethos Energy, NAES, Duke Energy - Conoco-Phillips, Phillips 66, Calumet Montana Refining - Destec Energy, Global Energy, Inc. - US Navy Technologies: - Gas Turbine Combined Cycle including single shaft technology - GE 7FA and 7HA Gas Turbines - Mitsubishi / Siemens W501FC+ Gas Turbines - Siemens / Westinghouse W251B12 Gas Turbines - GE D11, A651; and Westinghouse Steam Turbines - Entrained-Flow Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC, E-Gas)
