Amec Foster Wheeler has won two new nuclear waste framework contracts worth £4 million.
The deals will see the company deliver environmental safety case (ESC) services and waste characterisation and assurance support (WCASS) for LLW Repository Ltd (LLWR).
LLWR operates the UK's Low Level Waste Repository in West Cumbria on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority. In addition, it oversees the management of lower activity waste throughout the country.
Under the ESC programme, Amec Foster Wheeler is to become the single supplier for hydrogeological and geological support, as well as one of four suppliers for general technical support.
The WCASS framework will see the company provide analytical support services and environmental monitoring support from its full-service analytical laboratories.
Andy White, Vice President for Decommissioning at Amec Foster Wheeler's Clean Energy business, said: "The award of these frameworks reflects the high value placed on the technical expertise of our people.
"LLWR has been a valued customer for many years and our understanding of their business enables us to play an integral part in the cost-effective management of UK waste streams. These wins advance Amec Foster Wheeler's strategy to expand our share of work on radiological and waste management programmes in Europe."
