On July 23 2008 a delegation of Atomenergoprom OJSC, led by Deputy Director of Atomenergoprom-Director General of Rosenergoatom Concern Sergey Obozov, visited the construction site of Leningrad NPP-2 and Leningrad NPP (Sosnovy Bor, Leningrad region).

During a working conference at Leningrad NPP Obozov, the deputy director general-the director for development of Rosenergoatom Concern A.Polushkin, the deputy director general-the general inspector of Rosenergoatom Concern E.Pozdyshev, the deputy director general of Rosenergoatom Concern-the director of Leningrad NPP V.Lebedev, the head of department of Atomenergoprom OJSC Y.Sergeyev, the president of Atomstroyexport L.Reznikov (the former director of St.Petersburg Atomenergoproekt, the general contractor and designer of Leningrad NPP-2), the head of the Directorate for the Construction of Leningrad NPP-2 O.Lebedev and other representatives of the general contractor and sub-contractor organizations discussed the course of the construction of Leningrad NPP-2.

In conclusion, Obozov said: “The situation at the construction site is quite favorable. Quite good work has been done on project documentation. For the moment we have no problems but we may have some in the future. We have come to regulate the onsite management system and the relations between the general contractor and the owner of the project on both construction and procurement.”

Reznikov presented a new project management structure. Obozov said that there would no longer be one contractor on the site. Shortly, St.Petersburg Atomenergoproekt will distribute the work planned for 2008 among five sub-contractors. “The experience of Rostov-2 and Kalinin-4 shows that the number of contractor organizations may amount to 15,” Obozov said.
