GB-Helensburgh: Pipeline Painting F76 Jetty Area including manifolds incorporating industrial scaffolding OFD Garelochhead

A need has been identified at our Oil & Fuel Depot (OFD) Garelochhead to improve the paint coatings applied to the F76 and line 3 sections of pipeline in 3 key manifolds and the jetty approach and head up to loading arm, and a manifold at the white oils (zones M & K). The conclusion of a combined inspection in these zones are that, in general the sections of pipeline are in good condition overall, however there are a number of minor and medium areas of surface corrosion resultant from moisture entrapment and coating breakdown predominantly along the fuelling jetty and within valve pits. These sections are mostly within 3 manifolds (deemed as medium risk confined space) and the jetty approach and head (approach over water).

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.
