A method for operating a gas turbine system in part load operation wherein a compressor pre-guide blade adjustment for part load operation is initiated in case of a given state of a flow medium which flows into a compressor, a value of the initiated compressor pre-guide blade adjustment is compared with a compressor pre-guide blade adjustment limit value which is determined depending on the state of the flow medium, and, if the value of the initiated compressor pre-guide blade adjustment meets a predefined condition with regard to the compressor pre-guide blade adjustment limit value, at least one measure is initiated for changing the state of the flow medium which flows into the compressor in part load operation. An arrangement has an actuating device, determining device and control unit to carry out the method. The gas turbine system has an anti-icing device and/or an intake air heating device and the arrangement.
