Severn Trent Water has gone out to tender with an AMP7 contract for the servicing and maintenance of biogas upgrading plants worth an estimated £700,000.
The water company currently has two Malmberg Biomethane Upgrading Plants (BUPs) in operation at its Minworth and Strongford Sewage Treatment Works, which purify the gas produced to ensure it meets with the UK GSMR specification before it is injected into the grid.
The utility has a requirement to ensure that the BUPs are serviced, maintained and operate at maximum efficiency with minimal downtime.
Severn Trent TW has now gone out to tender for a suitable bidder with a four year contract term.
Scope of works includes the routine and ad-hoc maintenance and breakdown repairs of the Bio-methane Upgrading Plant (BUP) which are designed, supplied and previously maintained by Malmberg AB.
Scope of services to be provided under the contract includes:
- 24/7 Help-desk support.
- Remote system access
- Monthly process reports
- Routine servicing & maintenance (major service)
- Reactive support
Going forward, Severn Trent Water would like to conduct the minor servicing in-house - the main requirement as part of the servicing element of the contract will be for the major service to be conducted by the successful supplier.
Options for further extending the initial contract term may be considered subject to performance and agreement.
