PIN JDR Programme - J4 and J5X Repurposing/Recycling

Tender description

JDR Programme - J4 and J5X Repurposing/Recycling The Joint European Torus (JET) has reached the end of its operational lifecycle and has now been handed over to the JET Decommissioning and Repurposing (JDR) Programme. As part of this programme of works, the J4 building and the J5X compound are going to be cleared of all significant electrical equipment in the coming months. Within the J4 building (and associated external areas) and the J5X compound, there are currently 63 transformers that are required to be removed from site and recycled as appropriate. The identified requirement are as follows:- • 32 off rectifier transformers. • 29 off matching transformers. • 2 off convertor transformers. • Total estimate oil quantity of 470,500 litres.

This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to establish third party interest in the repurposing/recycling opportunity and to engage the market in achieving this. We will work with interested parties to develop a commercial strategy and decide on the optimum process moving forward. An initial breakdown of the project deliverables associated with this work are as follows: • Draining the transformers of associated oils. • Removal of these oils from site and repurposing/recycling of the oil. • Acceptance and removal of all transformers from site. • Repurposing and recycling of these transformers. The PIN will be held at the Culham facility and will include a presentation by the procurement team, project manager and engineers involved with the deplant work followed by overview presentations and a site tour of the associated equipment in order to view the equipment and discuss the work further. Following the site tour a question-and-answer session will be held to answer any questions you may have and to get feedback.
