Deep Isolation has performed two field tests to show that retrieval of nuclear waste packages from a deep borehole is possible using off-the-shelf oil and gas exploration tools. Together, this data and field test results present compelling evidence that retrievability from boreholes can be assured if retrievability is desired for a given period of time.

Estonia’s government may decide next year if it will build a nuclear power plant and is studying several sites across the country to see if any are suitable. Fermi Energia has already investigated deep borehole disposal with Deep Isolation as a waste management option.
