As the head of the team Lubomir Krenicki (Slovakia) has noted, the advanced visit is a standard part of a peer review. “The main aim is to coordinate work conditions of a big team that will arrive this autumn and to conduct the advanced supervision in order to get the first impression of the nuclear plant”, he noted. “We achieved the aims we’d established.”
During the visit the international partners have executed the walkdown of power units and outdoor facilities of the nuclear plant, made observations of the operation and repair processes, operators’ training on full-scale simulator of the main control room, discussed the organizational issues concerning the preparation to the peer review.
It is to be recalled that the WANO peer review will take place at Smolensk NPP from 5 to 20 of October under the following directions: operation, technical support and repairs, engineering support, radiological protection and safety, chemistry, personnel training, priority operational aims, work management, equipment reliability, configurational control, operation improvement, operational experience, organizational effectiveness, fire protection, emergency readiness. On top of that, the reviewing team experts will observe essential production tasks: professionalism and leadership.
The WANO mission is to improve safety and reliability of NPPs in the whole world to the maximum level, exerting joint efforts to assess, compare with the best achievements and improve the operation by means of mutual support, information exchange and positive experience usage.
Smolensk NPP prepares thoroughly to an international “exam”. They have formed the working groups on every direction, developed and implemented the events on the operation processes improvement and the operation safety enhancement.
