On-time delivery thanks to air transport of a reactor vessel head.

The new reactor vessel head was installed in Dominion Energy's North Anna nuclear power station (USA) by a Franco-American team from the group.

Framatome ANP*, an AREVA and Siemens company, has more than a decade of experience based on 50 reactor vessel head replacements in France, the United States, Spain and China.
