Description
Summary:The recent development status of nuclear power technology in Indonesia includes the operation of three research reactors: GA- Siwabessy, Kartini Yogyakarta, and Triga Mark II Bandung, which have been operating for 31, 39, and 54 years, respectively. With over 30 years of nuclear research reactor operation, one of the issues that come to fore is ageing management. Ageing management includes the duties and issues involved with management, maintenance, operation, monitoring, and refurbishment. Nuclear engineers, researchers, and officials working at the Indonesia Nuclear Energy Agency and Indonesia Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency have concerns and differing opinions on how these needed functions should be performed and implemented. Use of International Atomic Energy Agency technical documents is beneficial for many reasons, including the global basis and years of experience, however there are a variety of ageing management related documents that it is difficult to discern which ones are applicable to nuclear research reactor programs. This paper attempts to identify, clarify, and filter necessary ageing management documents to be used in the Indonesian nuclear research reactor program.
