Abstract: A method of monitoring a plurality of turbomachines is disclosed herein. In embodiments, the method includes a fleet data system receiving first event data from a first monitoring connection system and second event data from a second monitoring connection system. The method also includes the fleet data system determining from the first event data and the second event data whether an event has occurred. The method further includes the fleet data system issuing an alert when the fleet data system has determined that the event has occurred, the alert including an event name, an event status, and a timestamp related to when the event occurred.

Abstract: A method of monitoring a gas turbine engine is disclosed herein. The method includes periodically receiving sensor data for the gas turbine engine at a monitoring device from a monitoring system server. The method also includes the monitoring device determining whether the tags for each group of a plurality of groups are in the sensor data and correlating the tags with the groups. The method further includes displaying one of the groups on an output display of the monitoring device including the tag name and the sensor value for each tag correlated with the group displayed.

Abstract: A method of monitoring a plurality of turbomachines is disclosed herein. The method includes a fleet data system periodically receiving first event data from a first monitoring connection system and second event data from a second monitoring connection system. The method also includes the fleet data system storing the first event data and the second event data related to events that have occurred over a predetermined timeframe and sending at least the event data related to the events from the first event data to a monitoring device. The event data includes an event name, an event status, and a timestamp related to when the event occurred.

Abstract: An equipment operating status tracking system is provided, which may include a graphical user interface (GUI), a processor, and a computer-readable medium operatively coupled to the processor. The computer-readable medium may include a memory in which are stored instructions for receiving operating status data for at least one piece of equipment and automatically, initially categorizing any downtime in the operating status data as uncharacterized. The computer-readable medium may include instructions for displaying at least some of the operating status data, including the uncharacterized downtime, to a user authorized to characterize downtime. Further, the computer-readable medium may include instructions for receiving input from the authorized user to characterize the downtime by selecting from a plurality of characterization categories, each category being indicative of a different cause of downtime.
