Norsk Nukle\u00e6r Dekommisjonering (NND) has selected a joint venture between Jacobs<\/a> and Multiconsult Norge AS<\/a> to plan the Norway nuclear decommissioning program, estimated to take six years and cost NOK 1 billion ($100m)<\/h2>\n

The initial focus of the Norway nuclear decommissioning program will be on two research sites- the nuclear fuel and materials testing reactor<\/a> at Halden and the JEEP-II neutron scattering facility at Kjeller \u2013 which were shut down in 2018 and 2019, respectively.<\/p>\n

NND estimates the total value of the six-year multi-award framework at up to $100m (NOK 1 billion).<\/p>\n

The Jacobs\/Multiconsult JV was ranked highest in competitive bidding and will have first option to carry out work<\/h3>\n

The scope includes engineering concept design and planning<\/a> of new facilities, upgrading of existing nuclear and non-nuclear facilities and supporting NND with technical documentation, as well as preparing safety cases to meet ownership and operating license requirements.<\/p>\n

The overall program for used fuel treatment and decommissioning of the Halden and Kjeller reactors is expected to cost about $1.96 billion (NOK 20 billion) and take 20-25 years.<\/p>\n

An effective clean-up leads to restoration of the sites for other use<\/h3>\n

Jacobs Energy, Security and Technology senior vice president Karen Wiemelt commented:\u00a0\u201cThis important contract expands our footprint in the European nuclear decommissioning market, which is estimated at $63 billion (\u20ac60bn) by 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cLaying the foundations for a safe and effective clean-up will protect people and the environment and enable these two sites to be used for other purposes for decades to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

NND Chief Technology Officer Nils B\u00f8hmer added: \u201cThe decommissioning of the nuclear facilities in Norway is a complicated assignment, and NND is pleased to see that there is a big interest from both international and local\/national suppliers to assist NND in this task.<\/p>\n

“NND welcomes the international decommissioning experience that Jacobs brings onboard and acknowledge that it will be of valuable help for NND. At the same time, we also greatly appreciate the Norwegian experience that Multiconsult Norge AS has, which means that the two companies will be a strong partner for NND in the coming years\u201d.<\/p>\n
