CoGen Turbine lay-up

[windseaker1]

Looking for best practices for NG Turbine lay-up to avoid corrosion. This is way-different the Steam turbine dry-lay-up practice. I was wondering about a weekly rotation and dry air injection for a four month off season storage. Any other practices are welcome.

Seal it with a good weatherproof cover on inlet and exhaust and dehumidify the air inside the covers.

But: Lube oil?
Generator and voltage regulator (brushes, dehumidifier, etc)
Control oil and cooling air pipes?
Generator HV ducts and transformer?

How long is it going to be out of service?
How long do you have to get it back into service once the decision to stop layoff is ended? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks?
