In December 2003, AREVA won an order for the design and construction of a 1,600 MWe European Pressurised Water Reactor (EPR) to be built for the client, TVO, at Olkiluoto in Finland, the ‘OL3 project’. This was a landmark project for AREVA. It was the first-ever Generation III+ reactor to be built in the world, and the first EPR. It was also the fi...
Over 800 fully intelligent P&IDs have been created for the EPR using AVEVA VPE P&ID. These P&IDs are all interconnected to create a complete logical network. As new or updated P&IDs become available, they are synchronized with AVEVA VPE Workbench, which constitutes the functional reference of the plant and is used by the many engineering discipline...
The many control and data-management features of the software are used extensively to enforce rigorous working practices and to ensure that data is only made available to other disciplines once it has been through the appropriate level of quality and consistency checks. Integrating data and work processes in ways that have not been possible before ...
The new tools have also allowed new methods at the construction site. In the past, large numbers of layout and erection/installation drawings were generated and issued to the site, all of which had to be separately managed. Today, AREVA doesn’t need to do this anymore. Support drawings and piping isometrics for prefabrication are issued. Any additi...
AVEVA Plant is now being used for the design and construction of four EPRs, in Finland, France, and China, and for Design Certification and multiple Combined Construction and Operating Licence Applications (COLAs) for the EPR in the United States. All these projects are based on the same generic EPR design but there are, nonetheless, very many diff...
The EPR is not the only reactor design where AREVA is using AVEVA Plant. It is also being used in both France and Japan for ATMEA1, a new 1,100 MW reactor design being jointly developed by AREVA and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. The project uses the full AVEVA toolset, working across a specific infrastructure. The AVEVA Plant suite has also begun to...
