Opportunity overview

The Authority has a need for assurance vetting of Ocean Tankers under contract to the Authority, either directly, or obtained by fuel Suppliers for delivery to the Authority’s sites under the Authority’s fuel supply contracts. The Authority has two ships on long term charter, which provide the majority of the Authority’s fuel transport requirement. These ships will require annual TMSA. The Authority also takes some fuel consignments under Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) conditions. Under DDP, the supplier of the fuel is responsible for delivery, which normally involves that company chartering a ship on the spot market. The Authority therefore requires an expert provider of vessel risk evaluation services to provide a vetting service. The estimated contract duration for this requirement is 5 years and will run from Februrary 2027 until February 2032.
