How can I ensure my Saab 9-3's turbo doesn't blow again after being repaired?

My car is a 10-year-old Saab 9-3 2.2TiD. On a recent journey it suddenly failed to accelerate and large clouds of smoke came out of the exhaust. I called the AA and they told me it looked as though the turbocharger had blown. I am calling a mechanic to fit a new one but am told that there may be other work to be done to ensure that a replacement turbocharger doesn't fail. I understand that you can advise on techniques to ensure that oil circulates properly in the turbocharger bearings.

It is essential that all the oil feed pipework to the turbocharger is also replaced because the intense heat of the exhaust gas-driven turbo can lead to it coking up, restricting the flow of oil to the turbo bearing.
