Testing lab opens Pickering branch office
The new Kinectrics’ Pickering office enables convenient local access for Ontario Power Generation OPG. Proximity to the Pickering nuclear station—as well as the Darlington Station — was an important consideration in providing expanded support for OPG’s existing facilities and future nuclear new build.
“Kinectrics is proud of its past experience in working with the Pickering station team and other power industry suppliers,” says Kinectrics President and CEO David Harris.
“We look forward to building on these longestablished client relationships and continuing to assist in the safe, reliable operation of Ontario’s nuclear assets well into the future.”
In addition, nondestructive evaluation testing and nuclear licensing services, provided by KinectricsÂ’ companies, Axiom NDT and Candesco Corporation, respectively, will be accessible from the new location.
The new Pickering office, with both fulltime and parttime staff, will also augment KinectricsÂ’ growing participation in the local Pickering/Ajax business community. Kinectrics is an independent energy services company with almost 100 years proven success in the power industry.
