About

UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded a contract to The BOC Group Limited for the supply of gaseous nitrogen to the South Teessite Company (STSC) from the BOC plant, where it is compressed into the BOC pipeline for delivery.

The nitrogen is required to maintain a nitrogen blanket within the coke oven gas main to prevent pyrophoric materials from igniting.

Supply is required for a maximum of 2 years, after which the main will be cleaned and unused.

The nitrogen is supplied by a single air separation unit owned, operated, and maintained by BOC.

Competition is absent as the pipeline is purpose-built to supply the site, and no other potential suppliers have such a facility.

The procurement was awarded under Regulation 32 (2) (b) (ii) and (iii) due to the absence of competition for technical reasons and the protection of exclusive rights.

The contract value is £1,317,600.
