The agreement names SNC-Lavalin’s nuclear team as an important resource for Bruce Power’s investment programme, which includes the life extension of six Bruce Power units announced in December 2015. The agreement also establishes a framework for the provision of ongoing engineering and CANDU reactor field services activities.

SNC-Lavalin will be responsible for the tooling required to perform the removal of pressure and calandria tubes, the installation of new components, the design of feeder pipes and integral fittings, supports and related nuclear components, and the deployment and maintenance of a number of key reactor inspection tools on the Bruce Power refurbishment project, which will begin in 2020.

Mike Rencheck, President and CEO of Bruce Power, said: “The agreement sets the stage for a project that will create jobs and enhance Ontario’s energy infrastructure. While we are planning for the long term, we are achieving our goals by delivering our programme incrementally, and we believe this agreement will be the foundation for a long-standing arrangement with SNC-Lavalin as we work to successfully invest in our units.”
