Operation of plants and pipelines
We take responsibility: your hydrogen plants and pipelines are in the best hands with us.
Hydrogen networks must be permanently maintained. This is a task that OGE's technical operations team fulfills responsibly.
A service contract with OGE in accordance with the DVGW worksheets regulates the maintenance of
- ·High-pressure gas pipelines G 466-1
- Gas pressure regulating and metering systems (GDRM) G 495
- Gas transportation compressor systems G 497
- Pipelines and systems for H2
These core tasks are performed by technical operations:
- Plant responsibility (operational asset management)
- Monitoring the systems on site
- Control interventions (operating) on site
- Maintaining / optimizing the systems
- Readiness for fault clearance / ensuring the availability of the systems
