Procurement of two petrol-powered service boats for the archipelago service in the Inner Oslo Fjord.

What the buyer is asking for

The City of Oslo, through the Agency for Urban Environment, invites tenders for the purchase of two operational vessels for use in the inner Oslo Fjord. The procurement covers a single contract for two operational vessels built on a common platform with virtually identical catamaran hulls. The vessels are to be designed to allow for potential future conversion to electric propulsion. The vessels will replace existing craft and be used for operational tasks, maintenance, and archipelago services in the inner Oslo Fjord. Both vessels are to be delivered with a petrol-powered propulsion system: Operations vessel 1 will be based at Hovedøya. Operations vessel 2 will be based at Håøya. The operational tasks require robust vessels capable of beaching and docking in shallow waters, as well as operating in narrow and confined bays.
