SeaEnergy's R2S to conduct Dounreay nuclear pilot
SeaEnergy's wholly owned subsidiary, Return To Scene Limited, has won a competitive tender to conduct a proof of concept technical photographic survey for Dounreay Site Restoration Limited (DSRL).
Return To Scene's R2S Visual Asset Management (VAM) system, will be used to deliver an R2S spherical photographic capture of the Irradiated Fuel Buffer Store (IFBS), which will in turn be used in support of the decommissioning programme of this critical infrastructure. The R2S team is already on site and project delivery is anticipated by mid-October.
R2S provides high definition, 360 degree photographic images - capturing any asset and providing the user with a desktop visual walk around. It significantly improves access to, and retrieval of key engineering information. Tags within images identify equipment and link to data and documents.
SeaEnergy's CEO, John Aldersey-Williams, commented;
"Having proven the value of R2S within oil and gas, another industry comprising complex infrastructure and challenging operational environments, we are confident that this proof of concept project will demonstrate efficiencies in cost and time and improved collaboration for nuclear too.
It is very exciting to be involved in the decommissioning of Dounreay and we look forward to developing our relationship with DSRL and the wider nuclear sector."
As a highly regulated industry with obvious security considerations, the spherical photographic capture and the integration of imagery into the R2S visual management system will provide stakeholders with the secure ability to visit the IFBS site from their desktop, reducing the need to travel to site, allow for enhanced collaboration and more effective planning.
Ends.
