Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by TRINITY HOUSE, a public authority within central government, involves the supply of marine gas oil (MGO) for the vessels THV Patricia and THV Galatea. This contract, titled "MGO - THV Patricia and THV Galatea - Asco," falls under the goods category with services related to marine patrol vessels, bunkering, and ship refuelling. Located in London, the procurement reached the award stage, with the contract being completed on 9th March 2026. The procurement was conducted using a limited method due to it being below the threshold, indicating a controlled competitive process that offers a reduced pool of candidates.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity, particularly for firms specialising in marine refuelling services, as well as those providing goods related to marine transportation. While the awarded supplier, ASCO, an SME based in Aberdeen, handled this contract, businesses with similar capabilities could target such future tenders. Given the controlled competitive nature of the process, businesses well-versed in developing optimised solutions within budget constraints and demonstrating specialised expertise would be highly suitable contenders in comparable bidding opportunities.
