Successful Hydraulic Tests Complete at Rooppur NPP Power Unit 1

Hydraulic 24.5 MPa tests have been successfully completed in terms of density and strength at the primary circuit systems and equipment of the Rooppur NPP power unit No. 1 which is being built in the People's Republic of Bangladesh by the Rosatom State Corporation Engineering Division.

The process included several stages, such as preliminary preparation, filling the primary circuit with water, achieving the required pressure and temperature, preparing the main and adjacent systems. An automated process control system was put into operation to provide management and control of the process parameters during the hydraulic tests. Specialists conducted thorough monitoring of the equipment status, recording all indicators in accordance with design requirements and international safety standards.

“The hydraulic tests successfully completed at the Rooppur NPP power unit 1 confirms the high level of quality and safety of our project. This is a significant stage that brings us closer to the next important step, i.e. the hot run of the reactor plant. We are confident that the plant will become a reliable source of energy for Bangladesh for decades to come,” Alexey Deriy, ASE JSC Vice President for Projects in Bangladesh noted.
