GE EXPANDS FIELD EXECUTION BEST PRACTICE “LIVE OUTAGE” IN EUROPE AND IN THE MIDDLE EAST

Following last year’s implementation of a new lean approach to outages, called “Live Outage,” GE (NYSE: GE) and FieldCore, GE’s owned field services company, today announced this innovative outage workflow is available for GE 9F gas turbines in Europe and in the Middle East. Initially launched in the United States, at over eighty power plants powered by GE 7F gas turbines, it helped complete outages safely with a substantial reduction in cycle time.
