Decommissioning

Decommissioning is the safe shut-down of operation of facilities used for industrial, chemical, power or nuclear purposes. As the sites often contain highly sensitive and dangerous materials, the process of planning and assessing risk is substantial, and is then followed by the careful and coordinated removal of each element before the demolition phase begins.

Keltbray provides specialist input for the decommissioning phase of projects covering the period from plant closure to commencement of demolition. During this stage of the works, characterisation surveys are used to identify the location and quantum of potentially hazardous materials, plants cleaned and de-energised, and value engineering applied to maximise the return from saleable assets.
