Compressor washing is a common gas turbine maintenance task. This paper presents results from field surveys of gas turbine users, manufacturers, and washing agent suppliers. These surveys were conducted to assess current washing practices and needs for various user applications. Plans for field testing to evaluate performance and effectiveness of on-line washing are also presented.
