TAP Invites Companies to Pre-qualify
for Offshore Construction and Line Pipes
March 03, 2015 + + + Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG
(TAP) has launched two pre-qualification contracts for the construction of
the 105 km offshore pipeline section under the Adriatic Sea. The greatest
depth the pipeline will be laid is 820 meters.
The first
pre-qualification comprises Engineering, Procurement, Construction and
Installation (EPCI) works for the offshore section of the 36 inch pipeline
between the coastlines of Albania and southern Italy. The EPCI scope of
work includes associated landfall civil works at the landfalls in both
Albania and Italy, as well as survey, seabed and pre-commissioning
activities.
The second pre-qualification process is for
supply of offshore line pipes and coating. The scope of work is divided
into three lots.
Specific details of the contract notices can be
found in the Supplement of Official Journal of the EU – Tenders Electronic
Daily (TED): link to EPCI offshore installation notice and link to
offshore line pipe supply.
Knut Steinar
Kvindesland, Procurement Director at TAP said: “I am delighted to invite
companies – including those from TAP’s host countries – to submit
expressions of interest in line with the pre-qualification documentation
now available on TED. The selection of potential suppliers will remain
rigorous, with particular emphasis on meeting Health, Safety and
Environment standards and a proven commitment to TAP’s zero harm policy.”
Following the
selection stage, TAP aims to issue the related Invitations to Tender (ITT)
for offshore construction by May 2015.

TAP will transport
natural gas from the giant Shah Deniz II field in Azerbaijan to Europe.
The approximately 870 km long pipeline will connect with the Trans
Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP) near the Turkish-Greek border at Kipoi, cross
Greece and Albania and the Adriatic Sea, before coming ashore in Southern
Italy.
TAP’s routing can facilitate gas supply to
several South Eastern European countries, including Bulgaria, Albania,
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia and others. TAP’s landfall in
Italy provides multiple opportunities for further transport of Caspian
natural gas to some of the largest European markets such as Germany,
France, the UK, Switzerland and Austria.
TAP will promote the
economic development and job creation along the pipeline route; it will be
a major source of foreign direct investment and it is not dependent on
grants or subsidies. With first gas sales to Georgia and Turkey targeted
for late 2018, first deliveries to Europe will follow approximately a year
later.
TAP’s shareholding is comprised of BP (20%),
SOCAR (20%),
Statoil (20%), Fluxys (19%), Enagás (16%) and Axpo (5%).
