Service contract for aerial application of dispersant service

European Maritime Safety Agency

In accordance with EMSA's Founding Regulation 1406/2002/EC as amended, the primary objective of this procurement procedure is to 'top up' the capabilities of coastal EU Member States, EFTA/EEA countries and candidate countries and support the ENP countries, in a cost-efficient way, primarily in the field of oil pollution from offshore installations, but also in the event of ship-sourced pollution.
The aim of this procurement procedure is to provide the means for timely and effective aerial oil dispersant application in the event of a request for assistance by a coastal State. EMSA aims to establish an aerial dispersant application service for an initial period of 2 years (followed by a maximum of 2 annual renewals) with private or public entities in order to guarantee, on a short-term basis, the availability of 1 or 2 aeroplanes together with on-board crew qualified for performing dispersant spraying operations. The aeroplane(s) shall be equipped with portable dispersant application system(s) and all the necessary accessories required for loading and spraying dispersant during oil spill response operations.
The scope of the service is to set up a European tier for aerial dispersant application upon receipt of a request for assistance, in order to perform dispersant spraying during oil spill response operations. The Agency is tasked to provide additional response capacity to that under contract to the Member States of the European Union as well as EU accession and candidate countries and countries which are contracting parties to the European Free Trade Association (EFTA). In addition, the Agency may also provide assistance in case of pollution to third countries sharing a regional sea basin with the European Union, in line with the EU civil protection mechanism. Consequently, EMSA cannot award a contract for an aeroplane that is already engaged with such a country or in the same geographical area for the same services.
