I believe some new reactors are designed as single use devices that will are manufactured with its fuel sealed inside the reactor vessel. The onboard fuel will run the reactor for 30 years and once spent, the reactor vessel can not be opened up for refueling, instead the reactor vessel will function as transport and storage container of its own spent fuel indefinitely.
