ExxonMobil contractor, ChampionX Guyana Inc. has issued a Request for Quotations (RFQ) from companies that can supply offshore tanks and pallet boxes designed to transport liquid cargo and equipment.
ChampionX is said to be a global leader in upstream and midstream oilfield technology solutions, chemistry programs and services, drilling technology, artificial lift solutions, and automation technologies for the oil and gas industry. The company has been servicing Guyana’s oil and gas industry since its September 2021 startup and has a storage facility located at Mc Doom on the East Bank of Demerara.
In part one of the RFPs, potential bidders are asked to provide quotes for the daily tank rental rate for a four-year term, with the possibility of a two-year contract extension. Prospective suppliers are also required to specify the lead time for delivering tanks to Georgetown, Guyana. The company was keen to note that the quotes must be submitted within 14 days and should include the New Tank Pull Test and Magnetic Particle Inspection Certificate.
Part two of the RFP focuses on the service aspect of the contract, including tank parts, labour rates for repairs, inspection costs, and various testing requirements. The company asked that suppliers stipulate whether these services will be provided in-house or outsourced to a third party. Moreover, the company said that the award of business is contingent upon field performance and selected treatment fluid volumes. The RFQ is unbundled, meaning that ChampionX reserves the right to award either all or part of the bid independently.
This RFQ presents a significant opportunity for suppliers in the offshore tank and pallet box industry, with the potential for a substantial impact on the local economy as the energy sector continues to grow in the region. Prospective bidders are encouraged to carefully review the RFQ and submit their proposals as per the outlined guidelines.
For queries, the company is asking that an email be sent to Eric Scott, [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected] “”). All bids must be submitted by Friday, October 27, 2023.
