Horizontal directional drilling under Guldborgsund and Roskilde Fjord

Two pipe sets, two power cable systems oPipe #1 from Falster to Lolland. Estimated length 1,254 m oPipe #2 from Falster to Lolland. Estimated length 1,207 m

The applicant must confirm the economic ability in the ESPD part IV.B with information from the latest annual report regarding the following economic indicators: 1. Equity (total equity incl. share capital, reserves, revaluation, retained earning etc.) 2. Equity ratio (equity/total assets). This must be stated with two decimals. If the applicant relies on the capacities of other entities or the applicant is a group of economic operators the information for the ESPD part IV.B must also be given in a separate ESPD from each of these entities. It is the sole responsibility of the applicant to secure that the minimum requirements are reached based on consolidation when the applicant is relying on the capacity of other entities or when the applicant is a group of economic operators. Minimum requirement: LOT 1: • Equity from the latest annual report must, at the time limit for receipt of tenders, be at least 28 mill. DKK/3,753 mill. EUR • Equity ratio from the latest annual report must, at the time of prequalification, be at least 20 pct. If the equity ratio is between 15 pct. and 20 pct. the tenderer can qualify if Equity exceeds 85,75 mill. DKK/ 11,494 mill. EUR

Roskilde Fjord: One pipe set, one power cable system oPipe #1 from Roskilde Fjord West – East landings. Estimated length 1,755 m Tenders can be submitted for one or all partial agreements

The suitability of applicants fulfilling the minimum requirements to economic and financial standing will be assessed based on technical and professional ability. The ability will be assessed based on references which can be filled in ESPD part IV.C. The applicant is allowed to submit up to 3 most comparable and relevant references undertaken in the past 5 years as part of the application. By “com-parable” it is understood more than 800 m length of horizontal directional drilling involving 100 tons (Thrust/pull-back tension: 1000 kN) or bigger. By "undertaken in the past 5 years” implies that the reference must not have been completed prior to the date reached when counting 5 years backwards from the submission date for prequalification. Ref-erences older than this will not be taken into consideration. References which have not yet been fully completed can be included as part of the application, however the applicant must describe the parts which have not yet been delivered, and this may affect the evaluation of the application, cf. section 2.3. The references should describe horizontal directional drilling activities, and include:  A specific description of deliveries, including: • Type and scope of HDD works o Length and diameter of pipe installed via HDD o Description of installed pipe/cable and/or casing solution o Size of drilling rig(s) involved • Hydro‑geological and environmental conditions o Description of ground conditions encountered (e.g. clay, sand, moraine, rock, mixed soils) o Sensitivity of the surrounding environment (e.g. Natura 2000, pro-tected areas, environmental restrictions) • Quality, HSE and documentation o Applied quality assurance and control measures o Compliance with HSE requirements during drilling under marine waters o As‑built documentation, drilling logs and completion reports • Contractual role and performance o Contractor’s role (main contractor / subcontractor) o Time schedule compliance and handling of unforeseen ground conditions o Reference contact details and year of completion • Contact information o Specification of buying organization, contact person and the asso-ciated contact information  Contract value (if possible)  Date of initiation and final delivery (day, month, year) Any ambiguities and/or incomprehensibilities may have a negative effect on the selection of applicants. Please note the “description” box in ESPD part IV.C. can contain more text than is visible and it is possible to copy paste text into the box. If the applicant is relying on the capacity of other entities or the applicant is a group of eco-nomic operators the maximum number of references to be submitted must still be respected and cannot exceed 3 when combined. If more are submitted, the Contracting Authority will only consider the most recent references determined by date of final delivery, in this case not yet finished references will not be included. If the applicant relies on other entities capacity or is part of a group of economic operators the information concerning ESPD part IV.C must be submitted in separate ESPD’s for each entity. Minimum requirement: • At least two references for horizontal directional drilling of a length of more than 800 meters installing Ø500 PE pipes or larger within the last 5 years. • Listing of drilling rigs of 100 tons (Thrust/pull-back tension: 1000 kN) and above that are relevant for the installation under tender • Proven record for work in nature preservation areas like Natura 2000, protected areas, environmentally restricted areas or similar. • Proven experience from previous projects with the use of Bentonite products, additives and other drilling fluid products for HDD equivalent to the products listed in Appendix 2E-1 and Appendix 2E-2.
