This is a meeting point for professionals and companies in the sector, not only to discuss current issues for the nuclear industry, but also to present papers, talks and projects of a highly technical nature. It attracted over 600 professionals and up to 280 technical papers grouped under \u2018engineering and innovation\u2019, \u2018quality and regulation\u2019, fusion, operation, waste management, decommissioning, radiological protection, \u2018structural design and behaviour\u2019, \u2018advanced 3D simulation\u2019, nuclear medicine, training and communication, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>As part of the programme of presentations and technical sessions, our colleague, Ignacio Sabater (Project Manager), represented GD Energy Services in the Multimedia exhibition: \u201cCreation of a BIM digital twin applied to passive fire protection design\u201d prepared together with Arturo Pascual, Director of Thermal Protection Services at GDES. The innovative system offered by GDES for the design engineering phase for the supply and installation of passive fire protection provides a 3-dimensional, geolocated representation of the installation without having to manually measure each of the components. In fact, the laser measurement system provides project planning at a level of precision difficult to achieve via conventional measurement systems. Using the new Multimedia Sessions format and augmented reality glasses, our colleague, Ignacio Sabater, showed the complexity of the designs obtained from the information acquired by the 3D measurement and modelling of the electrical cable ducts in the BIM (Building Information Modelling) system.<\/p>\n<p>Within the same Multimedia Sessions category, Jos\u00e9 Tom\u00e1s Ruiz, GDES Country Manager in Spain, presented the paper \u201cValue added by technology and cleaning processes during maintenance and refueling tests\u201d, prepared together with Jes\u00fas Lacalle, Director of Innovation and Technology and Antonio Mart\u00ednez, Director of Operation and Maintenance Support Services. Using audiovisual media, the evolution of services for the improvement of staff effectiveness, time management and working conditions was explained thanks to the new equipment and technological developments themselves.<\/p>\n<p>In line with the technical sessions dedicated to \u201cMaintenance, Inspection and Testing\u201d, Antonio Mart\u00ednez gave a paper designed together with the Project Managers, Amparo Ponce and Gumersindo Verd\u00fa, \u201cConception, development and implementation qualification of a remote cleaning process for the RHR exchangers tubular plate in the Blayais EDF NPP\u201d. This study covered the design and implementation of a remote, water pressure cleaning system for the tubular plate of the RRA\/RHR exchangers in the Blayais NPP, to remove accumulated deposits and loose debris. This project was highly important, as there was no qualified cleaning procedure before this was started.<\/p>\n<p>Adoraci\u00f3n Arnaldos, RD et Innovation Director for GDES France and a member of Women in Nuclear presented the \u201cMentoring session results from the 27th Women in Nuclear Global Annual Conference\u201d. This included the main data, indicators and conclusions from the mentoring session held as part of the activities organised by Women in Nuclear (WiN), Spain during the 27th Women in Nuclear Global Annual Conference (Madrid, June 17-21, 2019). This was aimed at promoting knowledge transfer from the current scientists, engineers and technologists to future generations.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5090\" style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5090\" class=\"wp-image-5090 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/gdes.com\/corporate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/Clausura_45RA_Vigo-e1572363833590-1024x581.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gdes.com\/corporate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/Clausura_45RA_Vigo-e1572363833590-1024x581.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gdes.com\/corporate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/Clausura_45RA_Vigo-e1572363833590-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gdes.com\/corporate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/Clausura_45RA_Vigo-e1572363833590-768x436.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gdes.com\/corporate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2019\/10\/Clausura_45RA_Vigo-e1572363833590.jpg 1452w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5090\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acto de clausura 45 Reuni\u00f3n Anual Sociedad Nuclear Espa\u00f1ola<\/p><\/div>\n<p>GD Energy Services not only participated in presenting the technical sessions, but also in the presidency of the Multimedia Decommissioning Session (Jos\u00e9 Tom\u00e1s Ruiz), the Training session (Adoraci\u00f3n Arnaldos) and the coordination of the Radiological and Environmental Protection session.
