OUR RESOURCES

Equipment

The analysis of accident scenarios and experience feedback has resulted in the production of intervention standards and then the definition of human and equipment resources to successfully conduct them.

As a result, Groupe INTRA has build up a fleet of equipment including:

  • Indoor robots capable of entering buildings and operating inside
  • Outdoor vehicles for visual reconnaissance environmental characterisation and interventions outside the damaged unit
  • Remotely-controlled civil engineering machines (a bulldozer and a digger) with a shielded control station that protects the operators from radiological risks
  • An airborne gamma spectrometry system installed beneath a helicopter (HELINUC) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicules that can make observations and take radiological measurements
  • A radiation monitoring system using gamma-ray probes which transmit data back to the control statio,
  • Llogistical support equipment (power generators, fuel, workshop, and other logistical supplies) to keep the INTRA Group mission control running
  • Communication equipment for transmitting information, measurements and videos to the nuclear operators’ crisi/emergency organisations and to the IRSN (Radioprotection and Nuclear Safety Institute)



Human Resources

  • 21 permanent staff seconded from EDF, CEA and AREVA (shareholders companies).
  • 24 non permanent staff, working on shareholders companies sites, trained in operating inddor and outdoor robots. Thet are on call and can be mobilised in case of crisis
