Studsvik secures major UK decommissioning contract



Studsvik has secured a major decommissioning project at the
Sellafield site in Cumbria. Studsvik has been awarded an early
mobilisation contract to provide to design and build a new facility
to manage waste associated with a Sellafield waste facility. The
current contract is valued at GBP 2 million for the next three months
pending main contract award. The overall expected contract value to
Studsvik will exceed GBP 14 million over two years.

Under the existing framework contract with Sellafield's Tier 1
contractor British Nuclear Group, Studsvik has received an initial
contract to mobilise. The main contract will be finalised during May
2007, subject to formal signing at that time. The full contract will
be undertaken under a target price arrangement with management fee
and is valued at GBP 14 million, over two years."This is a significant win for Studsvik in the emerging UK
decommissioning market. It demonstrates the confidence which British
Nuclear Group places in Studsvik to deliver this key project,"
comments Magnus Groth, CEO of Studsvik AB."This project together with our other success in the UK market sees a
significant growth in the size of our business in the UK" says Mark
Lyons, President of Studsvik UK Limited.

The facility was constructed in 1951, and has been used to house the
interim storage of beta/gamma waste into eight shielded cells. The
facility ceased to receive waste from 1996.

Studsvik will build a new Waste Retrieval Facility over the eight
cells. Waste will be retrieved from the cells and volume reduced
before the waste is placed into liners for disposal as either ILW or
LLW (Intermediate or Low Level Waste).

British Nuclear Group is the Tier 1 Contractor responsible to the UK
Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) for the operation,
maintenance and clean-up of the Sellafield site. Current and previous
activities on the site include nuclear power generation, spent fuel
reprocessing, waste storage and treatment.
