CS21134 BEIS Provision of Specialist Environmental and Decommissioning Services
Notice Description
Brief Description of Requirement Background: The Offshore Petroleum Regulator for the Environment and Decommissioning (OPRED) is part of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and responsible for regulating environmental and decommissioning activity for offshore oil and gas operations and offshore carbon capture and storage activities on the UK Continental Shelf. Further details can be found at https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/offshore-petroleum-regulator-for-environment-and-decommissioning. This programme of expenditure supports OPRED's environmental and decommissioning regulatory responsibilities and includes managing the UK's offshore energy legacy safely, securely and cost effectively in a most environmentally beneficial context (oil & gas decommissioning). Introduction: OPRED requires the provision of specialised environmental and decommissioning services to support its regulatory functions relating to offshore oil and gas exploration, production and decommissioning activities, and offshore carbon capture and storage activities on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). Summary of Requirements: The key function will be to provide specialist environmental and decommissioning services / advice to OPRED so that it can effectively fulfil its regulatory remit of ensuring: * Assessment of the environmental impact of offshore oil and gas development activities and offshore carbon capture and storage activities. * Optimum economic and environmental consideration of decommissioning proposals. All work will take form as standalone projects, outside of IR35 regulations. OPRED are looking to outsource this work via a contract with one supplier who may subcontract the requirements, operating on a call-off basis when a requirement arises. These resources must cover a broad range of environmental specialities, on an ad-hoc basis. For example, resources are required to cover functions such as providing expert engineering support during oil spills, quantification of decommissioning costs, provision of expert ornithological advice and undertaking appropriate assessments. The programme aims to deliver: * An improved understanding of the environmental impacts of offshore oil and gas activities, offshore carbon capture and storage activities and the mitigation measures to be adopted. * Dissemination of specialist knowledge and best practice in offshore oil and gas operations and offshore carbon capture and storage operations in the UKCS and other areas of activity. * Potential decommissioning cost reductions. Please ensure you review all attached information to ensure a full understanding of this requirement. All attachments can be found with the Document Uploads tab within the Delta eSourcing Portal. This contract was awarded based on the evaluation criteria as set out in the RFP document.

Contract Period, Budget and Terms and Conditions This contract is expected to start 1st August 2021 for a period of five (5) years until 31st March 2026. The estimated maximum value of this contract is expected to be PS1,680,000 excluding VAT over a five-year period from 2021 to 2026. This is broken down as follows: * FY 2021/22 PS280,000 * FY 2022/23 PS350,000 * FY 2023/24 PS350,000 * FY 2024/25 PS350,000 * FY 2025/26 PS350,000 Outputs Required OPRED from time to time would require specific studies to be carried out on issues that arise from its evaluation and assessment of regulatory submissions. Examples of such issues are, but not limited to: Environmental: * Environmental impact assessment of proposed offshore oil and gas and offshore carbon capture and storage projects; * Assessment of oil pollution emergency plans; * Appraisal of emissions and discharges from offshore oil and gas activities and offshore carbon capture and storage activities; and * Ad hoc environmental work which may cover for example, the provision of expert advice on flora and fauna, independent advice on Environmental Statements and expert advice on environmental data resulting from sea-bed survey work. Decommissioning: * Technical and environmental evaluation of decommissioning programmes and associated monitoring; * Estimating decommissioning costs; * Evaluating deconstruction procedures; * Risk analysis of decommissioning options; and * Comparison of alternative decommissioning options. Engineering: * Provision of specialist advice on technical, environmental and decommissioning matters in relation to the following areas: o Offshore oil and gas exploration; o Offshore oil and gas drilling and well control; o Field development, including design concept and front-end engineering design; o Offshore decommissioning activities; and o Offshore carbon capture and storage activities. * Provision of specialist engineering staff to support OPRED during emergency response situations, for example supporting OPRED / Secretary of States representative (SOSREP) as required for the duration of an incident, being located in the Operations Control Unit and / or the Operators' technical teams. This includes provision of specialist engineering support staff at short notice and out-with normal office hours. Call out arrangements must therefore be in place to mobilise the required specialist engineering support at relatively short notice and must include the following areas: o Well operations; o Platform / production operations; o Pipelines & subsea infrastructure; and o Floating Production Storage and Offload (FPSO) & Mobile Drilling Units (MODUs) / nautical engineering. * Provision of ad hoc technical training on specialised technical topics such as process engineering. Modelling: * Undertaking modelling, using appropriate models to predict behaviour or environmental fate, for example: o oil spill modelling; o produced water/chemical discharge modelling; o sound propagation modelling; and o emissions to air dispersion modelling. The Contractor will also be required to assist with non-field specific studies of a generic nature.
