Oil Removal Operations - "MANOLIS L"
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) has a requirement, on behalf of the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), for the provision of oil removal from the wreck of the MANOLIS L.
Background Information
On January 17, 1985, the general cargo vessel "MANOLIS L" ran aground and sank in an area known as Blow Hard Rock, Notre Dame Bay, Newfoundland, in a water depth of about 70 meters. At the time of sinking the vessel had approximately 462 tonnes of Bunker C fuel oil (HFO), 60 tonnes of diesel oil (DO) and 22.5 tonnes of lube oil (LO) in various tanks, according to a Transport Canada Report dated April 1985.
For 28 years the wreck lay dormant on the seabed, but in April 2013 oil (Bunker C) was reported on sea birds and on the shoreline in the Change Island area. The Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) conducted an assessment and identified the wreck of "MANOLIS L" as the source of the oil. Subsequent surveys of the wreck identified four areas where oil was being released. Sealing devices were installed on the hull and have proven successful in controlling and containing these releases. However, the presence of oils in the wreck poses a risk to the marine environment.
As such, in April 2016, the CCG initiated measures to conduct a detailed assessment of the wreck and its associated risks. The assessment was carried out by Resolve Salvage & Fire (Resolve) between August 15 and September 5, 2016. Bulk oil was found in two double bottom tanks forward of the engine room, also the engine room space and 3 engine room tanks. Traces of oil were found in 8 additional tanks. A range of oil of between 115 and 150 m³ was estimated as being on board the wreck where access was possible.
Current Requirement
CCG requires an experienced contractor to remove the oil from the wreck within the summer weather window of 2018, using proven methods and equipment which can execute the operation in a timely manner and with minimum risk of pollution.
The oil recovery operation must commence in early July 2018 in order to take full advantage of the summer season, while bearing in mind the potentially inclement weather conditions encountered off the NE coast of Newfoundland and Labrador throughout the fall and winter months. For further information, please refer to the attached Request for Proposal document.
