Nuclear Jobs in China

ERS (www.ersjobs.net) have Clients urgently seeking Nuclear Construction Engineers (all disciplines Electrical, Mechanical and Civil) such as: Process Engineers, Safety Engineers, Commissioning Engineers, Project and Programme Managers, etc.

Work will revolve around the design development, commissioning and construction of China’s next four Nuclear Power Stations.

Project durations are circa 5-15 yrs depending on area of expertise. The Clients expect to require large volumes of international Engineers to be drafted in on contract basis. Ideally we would like to engage Eastern Europeans with experience in this area.

It is expected that the positions will involve varying types of assignments from short term specialist 12 month contracts with holiday periods built in, to the long term contracts with long periods of work without return flights i.e. full 12 month terms. (ex-pat Status) Tax free status (Stirling).

Career Potential:

China Nuclear project will require an estimated 3,000 to 7,500 people per site over the next 15 yrs!

This offers massive opportunities for correctly skilled, educated and experienced personnel.

They fully expect to have these sites built simultaneously with each station in varying stages of completion with a wide variety of associated skills sets required for the various roles.

They will ideally be utilising as many of the same people for all four stations to complete the same type of work, so there’s some great long-term and semi-permanent contracts with fantastic job security and earning potential, for the right candidates, and that’s just the construction aspects, without even taking into account the manning and maintenance, etc. and annual outage.

China and Nuclear Power Stations Construction Projects

Peoples Republic of China’s State Nuclear Power Technology Company (SNPTC) has recently selected the Westinghouse/Shaw Consortium and Westinghouse’s AP1000 passive Generation III technology as the basis for four nuclear power plants

The AP1000 Consortium will be working closely with Energy Recruitment Solutions in the implementation of the new build program with positions and assignments.

As part of the AP1000 Consortium, Shaw provide engineering, procurement, commissioning, and management services for the four Chinese nuclear generation units.

Simon Turner of Energy Recruitment Solutions Ltd ("ERS") reported that ERS have an ongoing need for staff to fulfill this large scale demand for professional skilled and educated construction and engineering experts. ERS have positions across all disciplines within construction and Engineering for long term ex pat staff positions near Shanghai.

ERS would like to hear from candidates with recent and current experience in construction engineering of Nuclear Power Stations across the world.

Experience from Ukraine, Romania, South Africa ,Sweden, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Finland, Russia, Lithuania, India, Slovakia, France, Canada and China, etc. is highly sought after and valuable.

Background:

With the fastest growing economy in the world and its population aggressively demanding to catch up with the western world. Huge demand is placed on the shoulders of the PRC to enable businesses to operate across its vast lands.

With an enormous percentage of its population still living off the land and largely still existing without mains electricity. You have another demand for upgrading the national infrastructure to support the businesses and as the population that converts to working within its factories is looking to emulate its western counterparts.

Wages enable independence better quality of life with improved towns and buildings.

Mainland China already has eleven nuclear power stations in commercial operation with a further six under construction, and plenty more in the planning stages about to start construction. China needs more Nuclear reactors if it is to continue its vertical climb in world wide dominance.

The countries rapid expansion in its growth of commercial and industry factories leads not only to national power shortages but also a heavy reliance on Fossil fuels that as a direct result is also a big impact on health and its smog related effects on the nation. 

China has to reduce its carbon foot print as its the second-largest contributor to energy-related carbon dioxide emissions after the USA.

Nuclear Power is a natural choice to support the required power capacity in the coastal areas remote from the coalfields and where the economy is developing quickest.

Location:

Shanghai and north and south at Sangmen and Haiyang.

At the end of February 2007 a framework agreement was signed between Westinghouse and SNPTC specifying Haiyang in Shandong province as the site of the second pair of AP1000 units, with Sanmen.

In July 2007 Westinghouse, along with consortium partner Shaw, signed the AP1000 contracts with SNPTC, Sanmen Nuclear Power Company, Shangdong Nuclear Power Company and China National Technical Import & Export Corporation (CNTIC). There were no specific terms released however figures of $5.3 billion for the deal have been widely quoted.

The Sanmen site works commenced in February 2008 and full construction for unit 1 is to start in March 2009, with the first power expected late in August 2013.

Its is widely acknowledged that EDF will take a 30% share in the Taishan project as joint venture partner with CGNPC.

Simon Turner advised that ERS understand that the Taishan Nuclear Power Company which will oversee the building, then own and operate the plant. Cost is estimated for the project, including fuel supply, to total in excess of 8 billion Euros. The Steam turbine generators alone will cost circa 300 million Euros.

Modularisation Fabrication Manager will be required to oversee the Module Fabrication Shop for Module Fabrication and Delivery for the Haiyang Project.

Materials Manager to oversee material receipt, claims initiation, warehousing, storing and distribution operations by initiating, coordinating, and enforcing program, operational, and personnel policies and procedures for a Nuclear Power Plant construction project.
