Description
The TS1 project; a circa £15M, 9-year (from definition to planned completion) technically complex sustainability project, to realise a raft of benefits for ISIS and allow continued running and development of TS1, has continued to progress since the update provided at ICANS XXII [1] and now has firm dates for the operational shutdown within which the bulk of the strip-out, installation and commissioning work is to be carried out. Design work has been completed in most areas and production, assembly and testing of the various components and systems is well under way.
In this paper I will summarise the project’s progress including highlights, challenges and changes. It will also provide a look to future work, especially that to be carried out in the long shutdown 2020 – 2021 [2].
