TAP has taken the decision to re-launch its procurement process, following a review of its strategy and schedule. TAP will therefore initiate new pre-qualifications for goods and services that the natural gas pipeline project requires.
The revised pre-qualification process should ensure
maximum opportunity for national and international suppliers to take part in
this important and strategic project.
TAP will re-launch the process to procure goods and services in the following
main areas:
1. Engineering
Procurement Construction (EPC): The majority of suppliers who
will be requested to pre-qualify this year will be for Engineering Procurement
Construction services. These include for example: onshore and offshore pipeline
construction services, compressor stations and Pipeline Receiving Terminal
construction.
2. Supply Contracts:These include the procurement of steel pipes, SCADA systems and large diameter
pipeline valves. These contracts will be managed by TAP directly.
TAP intends to publish notices in the Official Journal of the EU - The EU
Gazette for each of the contracts. Companies with the relevant experience can
apply.
The first Contract Notice can be found in the EU Gazette
for pre-qualification of potential suppliers for
construction of Albanian Access Roads and Bridges.
Subsequent Contract Notices will appear over the next months.
We encourage all companies with relevant experience – including those that applied previously – to participate in the new rounds of pre-qualification.
TAP will also provide clear guidance to companies with regard to participation in the tender processes.
