Nuclear / Power Generation
Altrad Services provides a wide range of industrial services and solutions in support of the construction and maintenance of high-value, super-critical nuclear power generation assets. In addition, we provide services in support of other technologies in the power generation segment: conventional fossil-fuel, but also research laboratories, storage laboratories, submarines, etc.
Due to the nature of nuclear power generation sites, we work in the most demanding and controlled environments, which has required us to develop and implement innovative techniques and solutions to assist our clients in safely and securely operating and extending the life of their plants. We have had a long and sustainable relationship with all of the major players within this sector in France (for example EDF, AREVA and CEA). These relationships have enabled us to extend our service offering in support of nuclear power plants in other countries such as Ukraine, China, Belgium and Slovakia.
In France, we have a dedicated department of over 800 well-trained, highly-skilled, certified and qualified operators, with a long track-record of working in the nuclear environment. They work in the 19 existing nuclear plants, on the 58 operating units (called tranches).
Our services include the provision of surface preparation and treatment, scaffolding, insulation, PFP, containment / zoning and cleaning / decontamination for new-build facilities, such as the next generation EPR in Flamanville, France. The majority of our activity is however focused on the support of the operation and life extension phases of existing operating assets, where we intervene through our dedicated on-site teams. We also have successfully managed significant maintenance, revamping and life-extension projects during shutdown periods.
