Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero, a central government authority located in London, concerns the "Upstream Oil and Gas Fields Subscription 2025-2028" tender. This process is within the services industry category and is specifically related to subscription services for providing vital information on upstream oil and gas fields. The procurement stage has reached completion as of 11th September 2025, following a direct award method.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for large-scale enterprises in the services sector capable of providing specialised information and analysis in the oil and gas industry, particularly those offering unique insights and proprietary subscription services.
