Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence bought the supply of 23,775 m³ of F-35 fuel and 13,000 m³ of F-76 fuel for British Overseas Territories. The requirement covers deliveries to Anguilla, Bermuda, the British Antarctic Territory, the British Indian Ocean Territory, the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, the Cayman Islands, the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Montserrat, Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, and the Turks and Caicos Islands. This is a bulk-fuel supply requirement, classified under CPV 09111300 (fossil fuels).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Stonewin AG on 10 September 2026, following a selective call-off competition under the Global Bulk Fuels Framework Agreement. The contract was awarded to the lowest-cost compliant bidder under the framework terms. Its awarded value is £31,375,874.21. The award lists a contract period from 11 September to 30 November 2026; the tender section separately gives a period ending 16 October 2026. The competition deadline was 10 September 2026. The requirement was treated as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For suppliers of bulk marine and aviation fuels, this award demonstrates Ministry of Defence demand for substantial quantities of F-35 and F-76 fuel delivered across a wide range of geographically dispersed overseas territories. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to source and supply both fuel grades, coordinate delivery to remote and sometimes difficult-to-access locations, and demonstrate that it can meet the buyer’s compliance requirements. The route used was a call-off competition through the Global Bulk Fuels Framework Agreement, and the selected supplier submitted the lowest-cost compliant offer. Suppliers would therefore need to be positioned to participate through the relevant framework and price competitively while meeting its requirements. The buyer marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and social enterprises, indicating that the scale and delivery demands favour suppliers with substantial capacity and established fuel logistics.
