However, a system to archive all necessary information for the future generations of specialists that will work on the decommissioning was needed to avoid mistakes when the decontaminating and dismantling is performed in future years. The project team converted technical documentation to electronic form and placed it in managed storage. Additionally, Bentley’s technology allowed the team to develop complicated large-scale 3D models of the facilities for decommissioning. 21 Current Bentley Colleagues Be Inspired Awards: – Information System “Decommissioning Database of Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant” Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant
