Objectives

The primary objective of this tender is to supply and deliver a 60,000-litre capacity aboveground diesel storage tank that complies with relevant standards (SANS 10131). The project includes supplying, delivering, installing, and commissioning the tank along with associated components such as a digital pump dispenser, ensuring environmental safety through self-iron/steel bunding walls, and providing training and documentation for operational use.

Scope

The scope of work encompasses:

• Supplying a 60,000-litre aboveground diesel storage tank with specified dimensions and design standards.
• Delivering and installing the tank at the designated site, including the installation of a self-iron/steel bunding wall designed to prevent environmental contamination.
• Providing a digital Gilbarco/Tokeim pump dispenser with one nozzle and a 5-meter pipe.
• Commissioning the entire system, including electrical wiring compliant with SANS standards.
• Providing necessary documentation such as safety files, engineering sign-off, and training on the use of the tank and fuel dispenser.
• Ensuring all components meet safety and environmental standards, including capacity and bunding requirements.

Technical Requirements

The technical specifications include:

• Supply, delivery, and installation of a SANS 10131 compliant aboveground cradle-mounted tank.
• Tank dimensions: approximately 2,870 mm in diameter, 9,600 mm in length, with a shell thickness suitable for a 60,000-litre capacity.
• Self-iron/steel bunding wall with steel thickness of at least 3mm, galvanised options preferred, with drainage holes.
• Bunding wall height: between 0.5m and 1.5m, with a minimum distance of 1m from the tank.
• The bund must hold at least 110% of the tank’s capacity or 25% of total stored volume, whichever is greater.
• Electrical wiring for the pump must comply with SANS 10142-1 and SANS 10089-2 standards.

Skills Requirements

The successful service provider must demonstrate:

• Experience in supplying and installing aboveground fuel storage tanks, preferably with references for similar projects completed between 2015 and 2026.
• Capability to deliver and install tanks in accordance with safety and environmental standards.
• Proficiency in electrical wiring and pump installation compliant with relevant SANS standards.
• Ability to provide training and comprehensive documentation on system operation and safety procedures.
• Compliance with B-BBEE verification requirements and relevant legal and safety standards.
