Summary of the contracting process

The Port of Dover has finalized the procurement process for the provision of HVO Fuel and Marine HVO Fuel, awarding the contract to New Era Fuels Limited T/a New Era Energy. This contract spans from April 2025 to April 2029 and is valued at £3,500,000. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, suitable for businesses that are not primarily small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary community and social enterprises. The contract encompasses the delivery of goods classified under CPV code 09100000, namely fuels, and is centred in the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically Dover, Kent (postcode CT17 9BU). The process has reached the award stage, with all activities completed by the end of April 2025.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for companies specialising in fuel supply to expand their business through a significant long-term contract with a major UK port. The open procedure allowed for wide participation, yet it was not tailored for SMEs or VCSEs, so larger established suppliers in the fuel industry would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in such a contract not only aids in securing a stable revenue stream over four years but also enhances the successful bidder's profile and market position within the maritime fuel supply sector.
