It has previously been reported that more than a dozen companies in total had submitted technical proposals for the planned pool of engineering consultants by the deadlines of 8 June and 14 June, for tier 1 and tier 2, respectively.
Adnoc had been engaged in technical clarification meetings with firms since receipt of technical proposals.
“Technical presentations and meetings have now been completed between Adnoc and firms running for tier 2. The commercial proposal submission date is likely to be set once the tier 1 [commercial] submissions are done,” one source said.
Adnoc plans to exclusively tender concept selection, feasibility study (pre-feed), detailed design and front-end engineering and design (feed) jobs for projects across its upstream, midstream and downstream businesses to this proposed pool of selected firms.
According to sources, selected companies will be awarded a framework agreement of three years, with a two-year extendable option available.
