Techsnabexport

[citation needed] During the period of radical market reforms in the Russian nuclear industry between 2002 and 2007, TENEX acquired and consolidated assets in the uranium mining, engineering, and chemical sectors.

The suspension agreement terms allowed for carrying out commercial supplies of negligible volumes of enriched uranium within the agreed quotas through 2002.

[3] In 2008, Rosatom and the US Department of Commerce signed an amendment to the suspension agreement concerning uranium supplies from Russia, which was developed upon the initiative and with the participation of TENEX.

After a competitive tender was carried out in 2017 by the Mitsubishi Research Institute, TENEX and FSUE RosRAO worked on the creation of a neutron detector to search and identify fuel debris fragments inside the reactor space.

[5] In February 2017, TENEX was appointed the sole organization authorized to conclude foreign trade deals related to import to Russia of irradiated fuel assemblies from nuclear power reactors.

[6] In 2017, TENEX was authorized by Rosatom to move low-enriched uranium though the territory of the Russian Federation within the IAEA LEU Bank creation in Kazakhstan.

[citation needed] In February 2018, TENEX and FSUE RosRAO, the V. G. Khlopin Radium Institute and SSC RIAR, was chosen for a project to develop technologies for analyzing the ageing properties of fuel debris subsidized by the Japanese government.

Companies will study the samples of corium and "lava" generated by the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident, and will manufacture model samples of Fukushima Daiichi NPP fuel debris to develop a prediction model for the changes of corium properties with the aim of using it for post-accident clean-up at Fukushima Daiichi NPP.

[11] Techsnabexport was appointed as the only organization authorized to conclude foreign trade transactions related to the import of irradiated fuel assemblies into Russia for reprocessing.
