Description

Please note this is a revised tender, following the decision to discontinue tender ref 20230214-000004 (2023/S 000-004438). bp Aberdeen Hydrogen Energy Limited (bpAHEL) is a Joint Venture (JV) between bp and Aberdeen City Council (ACC), secured through a public procurement process. The JV has been created with the purpose of delivering a scalable green hydrogen production, storage and distribution facility in the city powered by renewable energy. The facility is targeting manufacture and dispensing of between 770 kilograms (min.) and 1000 kilograms (peak) of green hydrogen per day – enough to fuel 25 buses and a range of other fleet vehicles. This contract notice relates to the following scope of work: Optimised and integrated design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of the following, to produce and dispense the required volume and rates, at the required quality, of hydrogen per day: - Hydrogen electrolyser and associated power unit - Ancillary package equipment (i.e., compression, conditioning, storage, as required) - Refueling/dispensing hub for vehicles - Interconnections between supplied packages including pipework, cabling etc. - Control Alarms and Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), Fire & Gas, Emergency Shutdown etc., as per referenced control philosophy and as vendor deems necessary. (Capable of being integrated into a wider site SCADA system.) - Clearly defining any utility requirements (power/water) and working with others to ensure seamless integration. - Allowance for hydrogen import facilities

Total Quantity or Scope

Description of Scope bpAHEL intend to conduct a procurement for the provision of the required hydrogen technology (electrolyser unit) and hydrogen refueling station (compression, storage, dispensation, as required). An output-based specification has been developed and Client is looking for a safe, reliable, and operable system based on the most-competitive industry-led, standardized offering from the tendering process, considering the specifications within the project brief but also the bidder's own capability and experience, supplier relationships, proprietary technology, and knowledge of delivering cost effective hydrogen solutions within the current environment. It is recognized that there will be options to improve in certain areas of the project, such as plant availability, redundancy, delivery schedule, etc., and these will be evaluated post-contract award in collaboration with chosen Contractor through appropriate cost benefit analysis. The Contractor will be responsible for the finalised design, specification, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of the specialist hydrogen equipment within the proposed project scope, and will provide and undertake the following within the scope of supply: - Design & Engineering of the scheme as a “system” including technical safety, process, mechanical, piping, structural, control, automation & instrumentation - The system should be provided with its own local control & automation whilst being capable of integration to a wider SCADA system including external signalling for remote control and monitoring - Project management - Project controls including estimating, scheduling, cost, risk and performance management and reporting - HSEQ management systems, including Design and Construction under the CDM legislation - Attendance and facilitation of reviews including design, scheme, constructability, Operations & Maintenance, logistics, etc. - Interface management and liaising with Other Contractors to ensure design is integrated to overall project - Procurement & manufacturing - Offsite fabrication, manufacturing, assembly, and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) - Transport, logistics and shipping from factory to a site in Aberdeen - Offloading, unloading & final positioning - On site installation, testing, completions & commissioning - Records from design through procurement to construction & commissioning - Start-up & performance trials to ensure system meets functional specification - Operation procedures & maintenance manuals - Training and demonstration of the system - Liaise with the Client throughout project's lifecycle and obtain approval on technical deliverables including -but not limited to- calculations, drawings, technical notes, inspection and test plans etc. Further Information: If you are interested in this project but are unable to provide the full scope, please provide the following information to chris.gough@turntown.co.uk, kenzey.fordyce@bp.com and sam.munro@turntown.co.uk. - company name - contact details - summary of company capability relevant to this contract opportunity The information will be shared with other potential bidders via the etender system with a view to enabling interested parties to work together.
