This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a hard-copy written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation is being issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under 140E0120Q0002. The Bureau of Safety Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) has a requirement for decommissioning methodology and cost evaluation for Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (POCS) Region offshore and gas facilities. In the Pacific Region, the BSEE develops decommissioning cost estimates every five (5) years for the purpose of assessing the ability of the lessees to comply with the decommissioning requirements, and where their financial strength does not meet the standards, assist in BSEE decisions for supplemental bond requirements. Reliable decommissioning cost information is necessary to accurately determine the amount of supplemental bond to be required by BOEM from a lessee(s) to ensure compliance with decommissioning requirements, to cover the aggregate decommissioning cost of a lessee(s)¿s facilities in varying water depths.
