Client:
JSC «Baltic Shipyard» (part of JSC «Shipbuilding Corporation»).
Customer: Rosatom State Corporation - Task: Supply of coatings of the AKRUS® trademark for the construction of the world's first Nuclear Power Plant Academik Lomonosov
The nuclear power plant «Akademik Lomonosov» of project 20870 was created as part of a floating nuclear thermal power plant. The plant has a high margin of safety from all possible natural disasters. Nuclear processes on a floating power unit meet all the International Atomic Energy Agency requirements and do not threaten the environment. After commissioning, which is scheduled for 2019, the floating nuclear-powered plant will replace the Bilibino nuclear-powered plant and the Chaunskaya CHP, which are already technologically obsolete and will be the northernmost nuclear power plant in the world.
Academik Lomonosov is a unique project of a mobile transportable low—power power plant intended for operation in the Far North and Far East. The station primarily aims to provide energy to remote large protective enterprises, settlements, and oil platforms. The capacity of the NPP is sufficient to support the vital activity of a city with a population of about 100 thousand people.
The construction of the Akademik Lomonosov NPP is in the final part. In May 2019, the vessel was in dock, where the bottom-side fittings were being inspected, as well as the painting of the underwater part and the vessel's freeboard. All the work intended in the dock has been completed. After mooring to the completion berth, an important part of the final work was completed — the final painting of the vessel following the architectural solution. The company's specialists painted Academik Lomonosov in the corporate colors of the Rosatom State Corporation: red, blue, and white. The following materials of the AKRUS® trademark were used during the construction works: AKRUS® Epoks С with winter features, AKRUS® Epoks С (Al), AKRUS® Poliur (blue, white, red, black), AKRUS® Terma.
