Customized Solutions
As a leader in Plant Life Management (PLiM), our integrated
programs help nuclear utilities maximize plant life and ensure
reliability and predictability.
Operations and Maintenance
Maximizing Revenue from Your
Nuclear Investment
Proactively managing maintenance for your nuclear power plant
means fewer unplanned outages, higher efficiencies and lower costs.
Added benefits include longer reactor life, high reliability and high
predictability, which allow you to maximize your energy production
and revenue.
SNC-Lavalin – Reliable, Proven
Being able to provide safe and reliable solutions through superior
technology is vital in the nuclear industry. With more than a century
of experience in the power sector, and over 60 years invested in the
nuclear industry, SNC-Lavalin develops nuclear projects, products
and services tailored to our clients’ needs. Safety, quality, innovation
and excellence in project execution are the values we live every day.
Our nuclear team brings its expertise to the light water and heavy
water reactor markets. We strive to “think like an operator” to bring
you solutions to issues before they arise.
Our services are based on an unparalleled understanding of reactor
components and systems as well as utility needs. We customize
PLiM programs to specific utility needs. We can supplement
utility asset management programs, where required, basing our
recommendations on detailed analysis and station feedback. A
focused and comprehensive PLiM program supports mid-life reactor
life extension, and long-term operation, while providing enhanced
equipment reliability throughout the life of the station.
