Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) initiated a tender process for a research project aimed at addressing long-term liabilities in the UK's onshore oil and gas industry. The tender, titled "notices," is classified under research and development services with an expected budget of £30,000. This procurement was primarily conducted to explore existing insurance frameworks and inform DECC's industry support. The tender was published on 20 March 2015, with the submission deadline set for 12:00 on 17 April 2015, and completion of the project anticipated by mid-July 2015. However, this procurement process has been subsequently cancelled.

This tender presents a potential opportunity for businesses specialising in research, consultancy, and insurance services within the energy sector. Companies with expertise in risk management, environmental assessments, and insurance policies related to natural resource extraction could find this opportunity particularly beneficial for growth. Although the tender has been cancelled, similar future initiatives may emerge as the sector continues to seek effective solutions for managing environmental and financial risks associated with oil and gas operations.

Notice Description

Description The overall aim of this research project is to inform the system governing long term liabilities in the onshore oil and gas industry. It is expected that any long-term risks in respect of abandoned onshore oil and gas wells are likely to be environmental risks relating specifically to operations. The project has two primary goals: * To research into the scope of existing insurance products in the oil and gas and other industries, and to inform the development of the necessary elements / framework to ensure that operators have access to the best instruments for funding and managing their long-term liabilities. * To research and inform DECC's support for work by industry to develop an effective industry scheme for liabilities (including where a licensee is insolvent). And, building on examples from other industries or jurisdictions, indicate how Government could interact with any such scheme.
