Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Oil and Pipelines Agency has initiated an open tender for the Thanckes Tank Farm Project (TTFP) in Torpoint, Cornwall, under the industry category of construction work for the oil and gas industry. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with a deadline for submissions on 31 January 2025. This construction project involves comprehensive works including a new COMAH compliant fuel storage bund, a filtrate and returns facility, an upgraded road tanker wagon loading facility, modifications to the fire water system, and additional enhancements. The project is scheduled to start on 11 November 2025 and is expected to complete by 1 June 2029.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in large-scale construction within the oil and gas sector. With an estimated contract value of up to £100 million, it provides substantial potential for growth and expansion. The project will require expertise in fuel storage, fire safety systems, and infrastructure upgrades, making it particularly suitable for well-established construction firms with experience in similar industrial projects. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are less likely to be appropriate for this large-scale and capital-intensive project.
