Wood<\/a> has secured a new contract worth up to $1bn to provide nuclear design and engineering services to Sellafield Ltd over the next 20 years<\/h2>\n

The company has been selected as design and engineering partner at the UK\u2019s most complex nuclear site as part of the new Programme and Project Partners (PPP) procurement model.<\/p>\n

Sellafield Ltd<\/a> says PPP is a \u2018game changer\u2019 for the supply chain, creating long-term relationships with selected partners, developing closer working practices, and delivering projects faster without compromising safety standards.<\/p>\n

Wood will provide the front end nuclear design and engineering capability and services required to deliver a portfolio of major projects<\/a> and site-wide project delivery improvements. A key element of the design and engineering partner\u2019s role will be working with the other lot partners for integration, civils construction and process construction to optimise design, constructability, and overall project delivery.<\/p>\n

Working with Sellafield Ltd as the fifth partner, the PPP lot partners will deliver multiple capital projects with a combined value of up to $6bn across the Sellafield site.<\/p>\n

Bob MacDonald, CEO of Wood\u2019s Specialist Technical Solutions business, said: \u201cThis is a fantastic endorsement of Wood\u2019s ability to meet the most complex nuclear-decommissioning<\/a> challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe already have a deep, shared history with Sellafield and this new appointment provides a platform for us to assist with safe and secure operation and clean-up over the next two decades.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis award reflects a highly collaborative approach that we adopt to achieve shared outcomes with customers and partners. We are looking forward to working with Sellafield and our partners to maximise socio-economic benefits for local communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
