Overview

Engineering Support for Hydropower Assets

Hydropower facilities are long-life assets, but aging equipment, missing drawings, operating constraints, and limited outage windows can make maintenance and refurbishment decisions complex.

Hysovent supports hydropower owners with practical engineering services that help clarify asset condition, recover technical documentation, resolve equipment issues, and plan repairs or upgrades with greater confidence.

Hydro Plant Condition Assessments

Structured review of turbines, generators, BOP, and civil infrastructure to support reliability, refurbishment, and capital planning.

3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering

Digital twins, CAD models, and reference drawings for hydro components with missing, outdated, or difficult-to-verify documentation.

Mechanical & Electrical Engineering

Engineering support for turbines, generators, components, and BOP systems to improve performance, reliability, and maintainability.

Forensic Engineering & Failure Analysis

Root-cause analysis, diagnostic review, repair recommendations, and preventative measures for recurring equipment issues.

Design & Manufacturing Support

Support for runner design, bearing design, technical specifications, procurement, QA/QC, FAT/SAT, and fabrication review.

Project & O&M Support

Support for project planning, technical supervision, O&M programs, feasibility studies, environmental review, and commissioning.

Our Approach
