### Lot Information

Lot 1

Negotiated procedure with prior call for competition under the Utilities Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2016 for the procurement of a Design and Build Civil Engineering Contractor for the St. Ola Pier Redevelopment at Scrabster Harbour, Thurso, Scotland. The overall redevelopment involves the reconstruction and redevelopment of the existing St. Ola Pier and deepening of the inner and outer berths of the pier to allow larger vessel access. The outer basin will be dredged to -8mCD, with a -9mCD berth pocket adjacent to the pier on the outer berth. An inner berthing pocket will be dredged to -7.5mCD adjacent to the pier on the inner berth. Dredging is mainly sands & gravels. The works required include partial demolition of the existing pier, new and part new pier construction with marine piling, dredged/imported filling, tie rod installation, concrete deck slab & reinforced concrete capping beams as well as dredging & spoil disposal (likely to sea disposal site and partially re-used in the works). The Existing Finger Pier (outer 110m of pier) shall be maintained as a berthing structure on the inner face only for the 83m reference vessel. A potable water supply will be provided on the St. Ola Pier, along with pipework to support future marine gas oil import and export facilities.
