Notice Description

Assembly of two EMSO Generic Instrument Modules: Assembly and testing of two oceanographic instrument modules, including construction of the frame, capable of deployment in deep water at European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory (EMSO) locations. A prototype EMSO Generic Instrument Module (EGIM) is currently undergoing shallow water testing. The bidder will assemble two replicates of the prototype module to house a selection of instruments provided. The replicated modules will be capable of deployment in water depths to 5000 m for periods of more than 1 year between servicing. Components are procured in advance and the bidder will take receipt of the components from NOC, assemble and test the systems in accordance with accompanying dry- and wet-test acceptance guidelines. Engineering drawings and related documentation will be provided. Delivery of two pressure-qualified EGIMs and accompanying dry- and wet-test acceptance reports must be completed and delivered within 40 days of receiving the components for validation prior to deployments of sensor modules anticipated in the latter half of 2017. Delivery will be to NOC, Southampton, SO14 3ZH. The possibility exists for the bidder to make use of 25 square metre work space at the National Oceanography Centre's Marine Robotic Systems Innovation Centre (MARSIC) for approximately PS2170 per month. Cost excludes the use of tools and machinery. At additional cost the testing facilities including large and small pressure test chambers can be accessed. Example technical drawings of the completed EGIM can be found in the attachments.
