Novinium and AREVA provide cable services to nuclear industry
AREVA Inc. has signed an agreement with Novinium® to provide patented rejuvenation technology to the nuclear industry.
This partnership is the first of its kind in the industry, and will provide nuclear power plants with a safe and cost-effective solution to extend the life of underground cable infrastructure.
Cable rejuvenation technology
As part of its 鶹ýӳForward Alliance鶹ýӳ program for the optimisation of nuclear power plant safety and operations, AREVA will offer Novinium鶹ýӳs Ultrinium™ fluid using its patented sustained pressure rejuvenation (SPR) injection method for nuclear power plant applications.
Novinium鶹ýӳs cable rejuvenation technology restores the full dielectric strength of a cable to like-new condition, and extends the life and reliability of these cables for a further 40 years at a fraction of the cost for a traditional cable replacement.
Safety and reliability
Tom French, senior vice president of Reactors and Services at AREVA, commented: 鶹ýӳAt AREVA, we take every opportunity to better serve our utility customers. With Novinium as a partner, our customers will have access to a technology that can improve the safety, performance and long-term reliability of their cable infrastructure, an important consideration when renewing licenses at nuclear power plants.鶹ýӳ
鶹ýӳNuclear plant operators will now have streamlined access to the same proven methods which hundreds of Novinium鶹ýӳs customers have come to rely on for increasing cable reliability,鶹ýӳ added Glen Bertini, Novinium鶹ýӳs CEO.
