Overview

During operation many key components of a nuclear reactor are inaccessible and even during an outage access may be restricted both by the physical layout and high radiation fields. To ensure everything goes to plan during maintenance activities or refurbishments, station operators are utilizing the benefits of mock-ups to proof test their tool sets, refine and perfect procedures, train workers and allow them to practice so that the actual operation can take place safely and efficiently. This approach leads to a reduction of the critical path time, reduces costs and reduces the doses to workers while simultaneously reducing risk.

Our mock-up and rehearsal facility provides the ability to safely test equipment, perfect procedures, and train staff for event-free execution of work.

The facility benefits from being at the heart of our campus and is supported by other technical teams who can design and build the mock-up, modify, and improve tools, provide advice on radiation protection, human factors and provide a comfortable environment for deployment teams.
