B13 Fire Detection Upgrade-Optioneering to support the 'B13 Fire Detection System Upgrade' project. Support is required in order to provide a gap analysis and create a schedule of works for NNL to use against five key deliverables on the project, which are: • Key Deliverable 1 - Activity in duct fire detection • Key Deliverable 2 - Fire detection in B13 active areas • Key Deliverable 3 - Visual aid fire detection on the cave roof area of B13 • Key Deliverable 4 - Complex fire detection upgrade / r...

Active Electrochemical Measurements-Non-active electrochemistry data for AGR cladding has been generated and modelling evaluation was carried out by NPL, using the newly measured data to guide inputs, to predict susceptibility of the fuel cladding to SCC in caustic conditions. Following these initial experiments, additional non-active testing has been carried out and subsequent further modelling tasks and development have been recommended. NPL will carry out the following Tasks: • Investigation of the sensitivity of...

ATOM Software Support-National Nuclear Laboratory award the contract for Software support via ccs G cloud to ensure continuity of service support to key software components.

Special Nuclear Material Feasibility Studies-There is a demand from Sellafield Limited to improve inspection of Special Nuclear Material (SNM) packages and store infrastructure to ensure continued safe and secure storage. SL have issued two requests for quotation (RFQ) to produce feasibility studies to examine / inspect SNM packages in two arrangements, ex-situ, and in-situ. For each arrangement an optioneering exercise would be performed to identify potential inspection system solutions and a down-selection to a preferred tech...

Procurement of Crawler components for incorporation into sludge retrieval system-Sellafield Ltd (SL) is currently in the process of emptying sludge from a series of tanks on the Sellafield site. This contract is for the procurement of ROV Crawler components for incorporation into sludge retrieval system is required to facilitate this task.

Glovebox Capability-A single supplier contract for the National Nuclear Laboratory to support the design, manufacture, testing, training and installation of a series of interconnected Gloveboxes.

Glovebox Capability-A single supplier contract for the National Nuclear Laboratory to support the design, manufacture, testing, training and installation of a series of interconnected Gloveboxes.

NNLC419 - Glovebox Capability-A single supplier contract for the National Nuclear Laboratory to support the design, manufacture, testing, training and installation of a series of interconnected Gloveboxes.

Reassurance sampling DNA extraction to support Spent Fuel Services-Since 2014, NNL have provided characterisation of pond water samples taken from SL Storage Ponds. Some of this work has also been carried out as part of on-going PhD projects at the University of Manchester (UoM), part funded by Sellafield Ltd. The reoccurrence of algal blooms within the Legacy Facilities, results in significant impact on sludge retrievals and skip washing operations, as well as on Miscellaneous Beta Gamma Waste (MBGW) removal. This is due to the poor water visibility arising...

Applying Machine Learning in Inspection Videos-Task 1 - Image Enhancement of Port Profiler Videos Development of a software function to enhance the image quality of existing inspection videos. The university will apply their existing image enhancement techniques (which were developed for a different application) to existing videos. They will then evaluate the results and further develop the implementation of the algorithms to make then suitable for use on the inspection videos. Task 2 - Image Processing for Corrosion Detection...
