UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Trinity House procured marine gas oil (MGO) for the vessel THV Galatea. The requirement is for ship refuelling and bunkering, supporting the vessel’s marine operations. The associated classification covers marine patrol vessels, bunkering services and ship refuelling services. Trinity House, a central government public authority based in London, is the buying organisation. The procurement concerns the supply of fuel and the related refuelling service rather than vessel construction, maintenance or general port services. The named supplier, ASCO, operates from Dyce, Aberdeen, and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement was handled as a single lot and relates specifically to the THV Galatea.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. There was one lot. ASCO was selected, with an active contract signed on 13 July 2026. The contract period runs from 14 July 2026 to 22 July 2026. Its value is £47,804 excluding VAT, or £57,364.80 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The tender description identifies the requirement as MGO for THV Galatea on 21 July 2026. The process used a limited procurement method rather than an open competition. The published outcome records no separate award date or stated evaluation weighting, so the commercial outcome is defined by the selected supplier, the single-lot scope and the contract terms.

This procurement shows a requirement for a supplier able to provide marine gas oil and arrange ship refuelling or bunkering for a named Trinity House vessel. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would have reliable access to marine fuel, suitable arrangements for delivering fuel to vessels, and operational capability to coordinate refuelling within a defined service window. Experience serving commercial, government or maritime operators would help demonstrate understanding of vessel movements, fuel specifications, safety controls and delivery coordination. Businesses considering similar Trinity House requirements should be able to compete through a limited-competition route and present a concise, credible offer covering fuel supply, marine logistics, compliance and dependable execution for a single vessel requirement.
