CLIENT’S ASSIGNMENT. 1.1 Requirements concerning the scope and technical specifications The main purpose of this agreement is to suggest and calculate economic estimation of costs according their character with respect to their dependence on the number of disposed waste disposal package (WDP) and according to their purpose related to the deep geological repository (DGR) using the knowledge acquired by Xxxxxx and AINS at the price level of 2019. Regarding time, all costs related to the DGR from the year 2019 to the closure of the DGR must be considered. The Client shall provide information (in the form of a report 1) concerning the “Optimisation of the underground part of the DGR of the reference project” comprising initial data for the Comparison of the level of costs for different cases. The output of this PC will be a) Report and b) Excel files. The report will describe how the costs have been calculated for each phase and introduce what the costs are. The Excel files will point out in detail how each cost component in the report is calculated. This Excel file can be revised in the later stages when more detailed information for the project is available. The Excel file will have few hundred lines items and sub-items. The costs are first calculated using Finnish cost level. Then the costs for the most significant items are changed to Czech cost level. Finally there will be two Excel files; one in Finnish cost level and another in Czech cost level. All costs are calculated in current cost level (2020) and without value added tax (VAT). The output will be covered in two data sheets: first data sheet will contain the input reference and setup data; second data sheet will contain the calculation of the cost estimation. The technical report will contain the description of the data sheet philosophy and the manual how to modify the input reference data in report. The transfer of Finnish knowledge will take place in the following areas:
CLIENT’S ASSIGNMENT. 1.1 Requirements concerning the scope and technical specifications The aim of this Partial Contract is the application of the Posiva Flow Log (PFL) system in selected boreholes at the Bukov URF site. The facility is located at a depth of 550 metres below the earth’s surface and serves as a test site for the Radioactive Waste Repository Authority (SURAO) with respect to the assessment of the behaviour of the rock environment and building materials at a depth corresponding to that anticipated for the future deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste. The underground facility is located in the village of Bukov in the Žďár nad Sázavou district, Vysočina region, Czech Republic. As with similar facilities of its type, it makes use of a pre-existing underground mine infrastructure, namely the former Rožná I uranium mine. The underground areas of the URF are located on the 12th level close to the B-1 shaft. This PC consists of the testing and application of the PFL measurement methodology in the underground complex of the Bukov URF in two or three boreholes. The first step will comprise the selection of suitable boreholes for the taking of the measurements. One of the key factors concerning the selection of the boreholes concerns the inclinations thereof, since differing inclinations affect the conducting of the measurement process. Since upward and downward inclined boreholes require slightly different approaches, it is beneficial to take measurements in both borehole types. The technical work plan will be prepared prior to the actual conducting of the research work. The plan will include a description of the preparation phases such as the transportation of the measurement equipment to the site, a description of the measurements to be taken, the data collection process (including the definition of the borehole data that will be acquired during the testing phase) and the evaluation of the data, and the reporting process. Following the taking of the PFL measurements, two of the detected water flow fractures will be selected for the collection of water samples. The samples will be extracted using a doublepacker that will serve for the isolation of the target fractures; a water pipe will be used to transport the water from the boreholes. The water samples will be collected in the form of pressurised samples so as to ensure that potential gases remain within the samples. The water samples will subsequently be handed over at the measurement...
CLIENT’S ASSIGNMENT. 1.1 Requirements concerning the scope and technical specifications The aim of this Partial Contract is application of Posiva flow log system (PFL) in the borehole at Melechov site at borehole XXX-2. The Melechov massif is located approximately in the area between Humpolec, Světla nad Sázavou and Ledčí nad Sázavou and is made of granite massif. This project consists of the creation of basic project of geological works, practical testing and using PFL at Melechov Borehole XXX-2 and water sampling at Borehole Xxx -2, database of acquired data and final report. All data will be stored at new SURAO borehole information system (acronym XXXXX) which is developed at PC 09. The subject of this partial contract includes a number of activities, the first of which concerns a definition of the borehole data that will be acquired during the testing phase. This project assumes with measure water flow, pressure, electrical conductivity and temperature of the borehole water and single point resistance of borehole wall and water sampling of two features. On Melechov test site, the additional borehole XXX-2 in vicinity to XXX-1 can be used for testing or as an observation point during PFL measurement of XXX-1 (see picture bellow). SÚRAO suggests the borehole XXX-2 for PFL testing due to good condition of borehole for testing and this borehole is situated close to another borehole which can be used as an observation point. During the 2018 TV inspection was made at Xxx-2 and the result can be provided for this project.
