Test & Commissioning

AZCIG provides Test and commissioning (T&C) services for power generation projects to ensure that all systems and components of a power plant and network infrastructure are installed correctly, function as intended, and meet design specifications and regulatory requirements.

Verify System Integrity

· Ensure all equipment and systems are installed correctly and function as per design.

· Validate that the plant operates safely and efficiently.

Ensure Compliance

· Meet regulatory, environmental, and safety standards.

· Adhere to industry codes and standards (e.g. AS, IEEE, IEC, ASME).

Optimize Performance

· Fine-tune systems for optimal performance and efficiency.

· Identify and resolve any issues before commercial operation.

Documentation and Handover

· Provide detailed records of tests, inspections, and performance data.

· Facilitate smooth handover to the Owner or operator.
