## Summary

The Oil and Pipelines Agency is conducting an open procurement process for the installation of a mechanical piping system and fit free issue pumps and filter infrastructure for its F76 fuel transfer and filtering system. This procurement, titled "GB-London: OPA T316/1391", is currently in the tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 20th January 2020. The project is valued between £100,000 and £500,000 and will take place in London, UK, with the contract period commencing from 27th January 2020 and extending until 31st March 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in works involving pipe installations and related infrastructure. Businesses with expertise in fuel transfer systems, mechanical engineering, or project management within this sector will be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this contract could aid businesses in expanding their portfolios and fostering connections within the public procurement landscape, especially within the energy and infrastructure industries.

## Notice

At present the OFD Loch Striven does not have an F76 fuel filtering system on site and the present pumping system requires the use of the Balance Tank. However, the Balance Tank has been removed from service and decommissioned rendering the existing F76 transfer pumps obsolete. In order to increase the flexibility of the site, there is a requirement to pump between tanks to allow for the complete inter-tank transfers of certain storage tanks. There is also a future requirement to filter off-specification F76 Diesel fuel to allow re-use. In addition, there is a requirement to replace the current F44 Avcat pumps, control systems and power feeds. OPA have purchased 2 x new pumps and coalesce filters to be free issued and fitted in position. The OPA Project Engineer, responsible for delivery of this project will initially become single point of contact (SPOC) throughout this FEED to allow alignment of specialisms and timely replies to technical questions (TQ's). This will also allow a smooth transition and management of information, set any meetings / visits if required. 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.
