We did 24 hours of vacuum before filling the transformer and we also recirculated 4 times the oil volume, which is 40.000 L, through thermo vaccum equipment.
Yes. There ware tap changer operations after the re-energization. The OLTC is one VACUTAP series.

Yes. The oil was thoroughly degassed before it was returned to the transformer. We did DGA after the job and before load the transformer and the gases level was zero.
Guys,
We have in our plant a 230 /13,8 kV 31 MVA transformer that had the following DGA result (in ppm):
