## Summary

Trinity House procured marine gas oil (MGO) for the vessel THV Patricia, covering the vessel’s fuel requirement and associated ship-refuelling activity. The purchase is categorised as goods, with the associated work involving bunkering and refuelling a marine vessel. The named buying organisation is Trinity House, the UK’s General Lighthouse Authority. The vessel is identified as THV Patricia; no delivery port or other delivery location is stated in the procurement details. The requirement is specific to supplying fuel to this vessel rather than a wider fleet or a general maritime fuel service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to KPI Ocean Connect. It used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and ran from 19 to 22 September 2026. Its value was £36,720 excluding VAT, or £44,064 including VAT. The award is active, and the contract is recorded as active. There was one lot, covering the fuel supply and refuelling requirement. The recorded award does not provide separate evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements, and no award date is stated. The purchase was for THV Patricia’s marine gas oil requirement; it was not a broader vessel purchase or a multi-lot award.

For suppliers assessing Trinity House’s future marine fuel requirements, this award demonstrates demand for marine gas oil supplied with the ability to bunker and refuel a named vessel. A credible competitor would need dependable access to the required fuel and practical arrangements to deliver it to the vessel at the relevant port and within a short operational window. Experience coordinating vessel refuelling and completing fuel supply safely and reliably would be commercially relevant. The selected supplier is identified as an SME, showing that a smaller supplier was able to fulfil this particular requirement. The award concerns a single vessel and a short, focused supply operation, so suppliers suited to responsive marine fuel logistics are more relevant than businesses offering general vessel procurement or unrelated maritime services.
