On the occasion of the PATRAM symposium, the international conference devoted to the packaging and transport of radioactive materials, being held today in Juan-les-Pins, France, Orano NPS, the Orano group's nuclear logistics subsidiary, has signed a contract with Japanese nuclear fuel manufacturer MNF (Mitsubishi Nuclear Fuel) to join a package share group dedicated to DN30 casks.

This is an innovative service offering for the nuclear industry, which consists in the formation of a package-share group for the transportation of enriched uranium (UF6), modeled on car-sharing and based on use rather than individual ownership. MHI will have access to a common fleet according to its own specific needs.

This new service provides for simplified and competitive management of UF6 transport operations, thanks to the pooling of a fleet sized to meet requirements including load peaks. The service also includes the provision of centralized fleet management centers where the packaging fleet is stored, with specialized resources for DN30 inspection, maintenance and re-certification. Finally, the service package includes a specialized service to guarantee continuity of approvals and availability of the DN30 casks.

This rental-sharing service is intended to be offered to all Orano NPS customers worldwide.
