Description

This notice is to inform the supply chain that Sellafield Ltd is seeking a technology capable of conducting internal visual inspection of long, narrow, convoluted pipework. Routine visual inspection of existing assets across the Sellafield site is important to understand their condition, identify any defects, and manage risk of failure. One example of such pipework is an overflow drain line that services the Sellafield Sealines, which must be inspected every 2 years. Internal inspection of this narrow (20mm internal diameter) pipework has proven particularly challenging to date, due to multiple bends, corrosion debris, lack of lighting, and the length of pipe (up to 60m). A solution that can be inspect narrow convoluted pipework and provide reliable, high-quality images, would be of high interest to Sellafield Ltd and the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) estate more widely.

We would encourage any organisation which has the capability, knowledge and experience in pipework inspection technology to respond to this notice and visit the Game Changers website for further information on this Game Changers challenge.

How to apply?
Interested technology providers should complete and submit a Game Changers application via the Game Changers website. The challenge is open to any organisation who feel they can meet the technical requirements. The closing date for applications will be 28th February 2025.
