The brief

The MCA wishes to purchase one Dispersant Spray System.

The system will enable precision application of dispersant on marine oil spills from a single small coastal vessel.

The Dispersant Spray System should apply dispersant at a safe distance from the deploying vessel in droplet sizes and at a height that effectively disperses oil in water.

The Dispersant Spray System will be part of the MCA’s Stockpile of counter pollution equipment and will be used, in the event of a major oil spill, for the dispersion of oil spilled into the seas around the UK, especially in shallow water areas, subject to the approval of the relevant regulatory authority.

The Dispersant Spray System should be deployable from small coastal vessels operating in shallow waters close to the shore.

Tenderers should provide an option cost to provide training / commissioning of this equipment.

Suppliers should state in their tender their lead time for delivery to Barnsley, which must be by 31 March 2017
