Independent mechanical engineering support

Independent engineering support for complex mechanical systems.

OPAN supports engineering teams with mechanical design, structural analysis, test systems, turbomachinery, technical documentation, and partner-enabled field support.

  • 12+years of international engineering experience
  • Directfounder-led engineering contact
  • Integrateddesign, simulation, and testing support
  • Design → Fieldengineering and partner-enabled services

Capabilities

Three connected engineering capabilities.

OPAN can take responsibility for a defined work package or integrate with an existing engineering team. The scope is shaped around the technical question and the deliverable the customer actually needs.

WP / 01

Design, analysis and product development

Technical development supported by explicit assumptions, sound models, and engineering judgment.

  • Mechanical design and CAD
  • Structural simulation and FEA
  • Turbomachinery components
WP / 02

Testing and technical documentation

Practical systems and documentation that connect engineering intent with measurable results.

  • Test systems and instrumentation
  • Technical reports and specifications
  • Procedures and design records
WP / 03

Rotating equipment engineering

Failure and risk assessment for sound decisions and reliable gas turbine and compressor operation.

  • Root cause analysis (RCA)
  • Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA)
  • Turbomachinery component assessment

Applications

Experience where mechanical systems must perform reliably.

Support is shaped around the actual problem, constraints, project stage, and required deliverable rather than a fixed consulting package.

  • Power generation
  • Turbomachinery and compressors
  • Hydrogen and energy systems
  • Industrial research and development
  • Custom engineering and test equipment

Extended field capability

From engineering analysis to operating equipment.

Through collaboration with experienced industrial service partners, OPAN can coordinate additional field services for rotating equipment and industrial machinery while keeping the engineering question, interfaces, and required outcome clear.

OPAN engineering

Define and resolve the technical problem.

  • Mechanical design and analysis
  • Component and system assessment
  • Technical documentation
  • Engineering coordination

Extended field capability

Inspect, troubleshoot, and support equipment on site.

  • Compressor and turbine inspection
  • Field service and maintenance
  • Vibration and condition monitoring
  • Reliability and maintenance package

Working approach

Clear scope. Sound engineering. Useful results.

Each engagement is adapted to the customer and project, while keeping the technical question, assumptions, deliverables, and communication clear.

01

Understand

Clarify the problem, constraints, available information, and current project stage.

02

Define

Agree on scope, interfaces, expected deliverables, and the practical next step.

03

Develop

Design, analyze, or develop the agreed solution with appropriate technical checks.

04

Document

Communicate the result, assumptions, limitations, and recommendations clearly.

Founder and owner

Experienced, independent, and directly involved.

OPAN was founded to provide direct and efficient engineering support without unnecessary organizational layers. The focus is on understanding the technical problem, defining clear assumptions, and delivering practical engineering solutions that customers can use and defend.

OPAN is led by a mechanical engineer (MSc) with extensive international experience in mechanical engineering and product development, including engineering roles at:

  • Alstom Power
  • GE Power
  • Infosys
  • OPRA Turbines
  • Howden Thomassen Compressors

Start a conversation

Bring us the engineering problem.

Share the equipment, project stage, available information, and required outcome. OPAN will review the request, confirm whether it is the right fit, and propose the next practical step. A Zoom or Microsoft Teams meeting can be arranged after the initial review.
