Subject: Reference for C&H Industrial Services, Inc.
To Whom It May Concern:
The purpose of this letter is to provide my endorsement for C&H Industrial
Services, Inc. C&H installed and aligned the gas and steam turbine
generators on the recently completed Liberty Electric Power Project for
which I served as project director for Duke/Fluor Daniel.
Duke/Fluor Daniel had the turnkey contract for the design, procurement,
construction, and commissioning of the Liberty Electric Power Plant, owned
by Reliant Resources, Inc., and located in Eddystone, PA. This 560 MW,
combined-cycle power plant consists of two GE frame 7FA gas turbine
generators and a Toshiba 232 MW steam turbine generator. Fluor
Constructors International provided the overall construction management for
this project. Based on their reputation for excellent millwright
services and their very reasonable quote, C&H Industrial Services was
awarded the contract for installing and aligning these turbine generator
sets. They did an excellent job in performing these services.
The quality of their work was evidenced by the outstanding performance of
these turbines during our commissioning of the plant, and their continued
good performance today.
Later in the project, subsequent to commissioning the plant, we experienced
continuing vibration problems for the twelve 200-horsepower fans in the
12-cell cooling tower installed by the supplier. Continued
unsuccessful efforts by the supplier to correct these vibrations led us to
bringing in C&H to review and correct fan alignment. Once again we
were impressed by the excellent results obtained by C&H. They had a
better understanding of the mechanisms causing vibration than did the
supplier, and they had the appropriate instrumentation and tools for
alleviating this situation.
I highly recommend C&H to anyone looking for quality and professional
millwright and rotating equipment installation and alignment services.
Sincerely,
Howard C. Sims
