Automated Stability Analyser Supply and Commissioning

The tender seeks qualified suppliers for the provision of an automated stability (S-value) analyser, which is essential for conducting precise analytical tests on asphaltene precipitation in fuel oil samples. The analyser must adhere to ASTM D7157 standards, ensuring reliability and accuracy in results. The successful bidder will be responsible for the supply, delivery, and commissioning of the equipment at the designated Petroleum Sciences laboratories in Rosherville, Johannesburg.

This project aims to enhance the analytical testing capabilities of the laboratories, facilitating improved research and development in fuel oil quality assessment. The analyser will play a critical role in understanding fuel oil behavior, particularly in relation to asphaltene precipitation, which is vital for optimizing fuel formulations and ensuring compliance with industry standards. Bidders must demonstrate expertise in providing similar equipment and include comprehensive support documentation as part of their submission, including technical specifications, SHEQ compliance, and commercial proposals.

The successful implementation of this analyser will not only streamline testing processes but also contribute to the overall efficiency and effectiveness of petroleum sciences research. By investing in advanced analytical technology, the laboratories will be better equipped to address challenges in fuel oil performance, ultimately benefiting the broader energy sector.
