ECC is for the storage and handling of radioactive source material on erf 3954, Swakopmund, Erongo Region. The Proponent plans to refurbish the workshop on the erf and to construct a dedicated storage facility for radioactive source materials used to calibrate and test logging while drilling (LWD) equipment used mainly in the oil and gas exploration industry. LWD tools are specialised tools attached to the drilling rod that measure and record various properties of rocks and fluids encountered while drilling a well. Clients from the oil and gas exploration industry will utilise the workshop and source materials on erf 3954, to periodically perform the necessary calibrations and tests on their LWD tools.
