Design and install underwater fuel disassembly capability at Sellafield.
Sellafield Ltd is procuring the design and installation of capability for underwater fuel disassembly and breakdown in the First Generation Oxide Fuel Storage Pond (FGOFSP) at the Sellafield site. This is a call-off from a framework agreement under Lot 2 of DNWP0015. The scope includes delivering the full capability for handling spent nuclear fuel underwater. Bidders must have relevant experience in nuclear decommissioning and fuel handling. The contract is likely high-value and long-duration given the complexity and regulatory requirements.
