Brief Description of Requirement

The Offshore Petroleum Regulator for the Environment and Decommissioning (OPRED) requires the provision of specialised environmental and decommissioning services to support its regulatory functions relating to offshore oil and gas exploration, production and decommissioning activities, and offshore carbon capture and storage activities on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS).
Summary of Requirements:

The key function will be to provide specialist environmental and decommissioning services / advice to OPRED so that it can effectively fulfil its regulatory remit of ensuring:
• Assessment of the environmental impact of offshore oil and gas development activities and offshore carbon capture and storage activities.
• Optimum economic and environmental consideration of decommissioning proposals.

All work will take form as standalone projects, outside of IR35 regulations. OPRED are looking to outsource this work via a contract with one supplier who may subcontract the requirements, operating on a call-off basis when a requirement arises. These resources must cover a broad range of environmental specialities, on an ad-hoc basis. For example, resources are required to cover functions such as providing expert engineering support during oil spills, quantification of decommissioning costs, provision of expert ornithological advice and undertaking appropriate assessments.

The programme aims to deliver:
• An improved understanding of the environmental impacts of offshore oil and gas activities, offshore carbon capture and storage activities and the mitigation measures to be adopted.
• Dissemination of specialist knowledge and best practice in offshore oil and gas operations and offshore carbon capture and storage operations in the UKCS and other areas of activity.
• Potential decommissioning cost reductions.

Please ensure you review all attached information to ensure a full understanding of this requirement. All attachments can be found with the Document Uploads tab within the Delta eSourcing Portal.

This contract will be awarded based on the evaluation criteria as set out in the RFP document.
