ABOUT INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS RELATIONS, LLC (IBRTM
)
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS RELATIONS, LLC (IBR
TM) was set up in 1991 by a group of
researchers and engineers who previously worked at enterprises under the USSR Ministry of Atomic Power and Industry. IBR
TM is specialized in consulting & engineering along with project
management in nuclear power and nuclear fuel cycle. Leading Russian and foreign companies, as well as state organizations, are constant clients of IBR
TM. The IBR
TM successful activities are
based on high professionalism of the company staff, which implies:
Deep knowledge of technologies and operational experience in nuclear power and nuclear fuel cycle;
Knowledge of the tools for economic and investment analysis of nuclear technologies;
Experience in successful management of “nuclear” projects.
IBRTM
strives for expansion and intensification of cooperation with its constant clients and welcomes collaboration with new clients in the interests of further improvement of safety and efficiency of nuclear technologies.

UTA-1 Option 1 – UTA-1 plant modernization. Option 2 - Termination of UTA-1 plant operation by 2035. Decommissioning (decontamination and dismantling) after 2035.
UTA-2
The project of the UTA-2 plant provided for construction and placing into service of the plant two phases [8]. According to the UTA-2 plant project the first and second phases will have a shared UF6 Handling Area. The project provided for the TC-21 technology to be used in the first phase of the UTA-2 plant, the TC-12 technology – in the second phase. The first phase of the UTA-2 plant (made operational in 2008-2011) is based on the GC TC-21 technology. UTA-2 plant first phase nominal operation capacity is 2.85 mln. SWU. UTA-2 plant second phase nominal operation capacity is 1.15 mln. SWU. Option 1 - UTA-1 plant modernization. UTA-2 second phase will be not demanded until 2035. UTA-2 plant second phase will be not in demand until 2035. Option 2 - Termination of UTA-1 plant operation by 2035. Decommissioning (decontamination and dismantling) after 2035. Construction and commissioning UTA-2 plant second phase started from 2021.
