Skid to combustor · OEM-specified injection control · single responsibility
Control
We design, fabricate, test, install, and commission the injection skid, water manifold, and nozzle interface, and implement the OEM-specified injection control. We take care of everything from the water supply header to the combustor, including control additions, I&E installation, commissioning, and tuning.
Water and steam injection is used on many gas turbines for NOx reduction or power augmentation, with the injection requirements defined by the turbine OEM. Innova provides the full water-delivery scope: we design and fabricate the injection skid and water manifold, provide or modify the fuel nozzles for water injection, and implement the injection control on a modern control platform, integrating the additions and modifications, performing the I&E installation, and commissioning and tuning the system. We follow the turbine OEM’s injection specifications; we do not perform NOx-compliance engineering, emissions calculations, or emissions permitting.
The Problem
Effective water or steam injection depends on getting properly conditioned water to the combustor at the right rate, reliably, within the limits the turbine OEM specifies, which requires the right skid, manifold, nozzle interface, and control, engineered for the specific turbine and installation environment.
On aging machines, injection systems are often hard to maintain or no longer integrated cleanly with the controls. Innova delivers and modernizes the whole water-delivery scope and re-implements the OEM-defined injection control on a maintainable platform.
Capabilities
Design, fabricate, shop-test, install, and commission the water-injection skid that delivers water to the turbine, engineered to the specific turbine's requirements and the installation environment.
Implement the OEM's injection-rate schedule (typically a function of load and ambient temperature) and accurate flow control/metering on the upgraded control platform.
Design and fabricate the water manifold and provide or modify the fuel nozzles for water injection, managing the connection of the skid to the combustor nozzles.
Implement injection permissives, supply/quality interlocks, fail-safe states, and the OEM-specified post-injection purge to protect combustion hardware.
Take the entire scope from the water supply header to the combustor, piping, valves, instrumentation, and the control additions and modifications, under one responsibility.
Perform the instrumentation & electrical installation, commission the system, and tune injection control for stable operation.
Where steam injection is used, deliver the equivalent system and OEM-specified steam injection control within the scope.

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN KAZOUR, CEO
To our customers and partners,
For more than 50 years, our team has helped customers keep critical operations running. We built our reputation as Petrotech by taking responsibility for control systems on important rotating machinery.
As more industries came to us with similar challenges across power generation, compression, and hydro applications, our engineering team kept finding ways to solve them. Eventually, the business outgrew the Petrotech name.
We are entering our next chapter as Innova Technologies. The new name reflects the full scope of our work as a rotating machinery control systems specialist. We engineer controls around the machine, deliver complete projects from design through commissioning, and provide support that stays with the problem until it is solved.
Our name is changing, but the people, engineering experience, and commitment behind the work continue. Our responsibility to active projects and installed systems carries forward under the Innova Technologies name. Your current contacts remain the right place to start, and we will communicate directly if an administrative record requires an update.
We appreciate the trust you have placed in us over the decades, and we look forward to continuing that work as Innova Technologies.
CEO, Innova Technologies
