2. Procedure

2.1 Procedure

Title : Owner's Engineering Services for Hydrogen Transmission Pipeline Projects
Description : Gasgrid Finland Oy and its subsidiary company Gasgrid Vetyverkot Oy (both later referred to as "Gasgrid") are developing the hydrogen transmission infrastructure to promote Finland’s role in the hydrogen economy. Gasgrid has initiated a number of hydrogen infrastructure development projects in Finland and in the Baltic Sea area to strengthen energy self-sufficiency and to promote the creation of hydrogen economy investments in Finland. The procurement covers the Owner’s Engineering services for the hydrogen transmission pipeline projects (later “OE services”). The main purpose of the OE services is to ensure that the engineering and construction of the onshore and station projects and offshore projects are implemented in accordance with a high standard of workmanship and quality, on project schedule, and within a budget. The OE services will consist of two separate parts: Part 1: OE services for onshore projects (Part 1) and Part 2: OE partner for offshore projects (Part 2) Gasgrid will select two (2) partners for Owner’s Engineering services. Gasgrid will select one OE partner as per each part of the procurement. The services are described in more detail in the Invitation to Participate and its annexes. The main contracting entity in this procurement is Gasgrid Vetyverkot Oy. Gasgrid Finland Oy may purchase services from the service provider(s) to the specific needs relating to the development and implementation of the hydrogen transmission network described in the scope of service. The contracting entities participate also in cross-border projects aiming at building cross-border hydrogen infrastructures, covering for example Nordic Hydrogen Route, Nordic-Baltic Hydrogen Corridor and Baltic Sea Hydrogen Collector. The cross-border projects are covered by the scope of this procurement to the extent the contracting entities are responsible for the technical design, the management of the design, and building of the cross-border infrastructures. The contracting entities may assign or transfer the agreement or parts thereof to a company or companies or to other joint organisation(s) of the cross-border projects which may be established for the implementation of the projects at a later stage as the projects progress. The contracting entities of this procurement may assign or transfer the agreement or parts thereof for the implementation of the tasks and shares for which the contracting entities are responsible. Gasgrid will apply CEF funding for the hydrogen projects. If Gasgrid is granted funding, Gasgrid will implement the necessary changes to the contracts as required by the funding instrument.
