## Summary

The Oil and Pipelines Agency has completed a tender process titled "GB-Torpoint: Emergency Shutdown (ESD) Valves," primarily focused on electrical installation work. This procurement is part of the Thanckes Overfill Protection Project, which was initiated to enable early works related to safety PLC installations for ESD valves. The contract, valued at £50,000, commenced on 18 December 2017 and is set to conclude on 28 February 2018. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, with the tender period having ended on 1 December 2017.

This contract represents an opportunity for businesses involved in electrical installation services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in safety and control systems. As the contracting authority indicates a preference for SMEs, businesses that can offer innovative solutions for emergency shutdown systems and have experience in similar projects would be well-positioned to compete. Companies capable of supporting the temporary manual operation of valves would likely find this tender particularly relevant.

## Notice

Outline Scope This project enables early works related to the Thanckes Overfill Protection Project. Within the Overfill Protection Project, a new safety PLC exerts executive action over new ESD valves to prevent loss of containment of fuel. The ESD valves will be ready for installation in piping line-work prior to the safety PLC being available so in order to proceed a solution is required to maintain plant operations. This project enables temporary manual operation of each valve via a local switch. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
