Five-year, as-and-when-required contract for servicing and maintaining fuel pump dispensers and conducting integrity testing of underground fuel tanks at Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, managed by Eskom.
Eskom has issued tender E3147GXNOUR for the service and maintenance of fuel pump dispensers and the integrity testing of underground fuel tanks at Koeberg Nuclear Power Station. The contract is structured on an as-and-when-required basis over a five-year period, meaning the appointed service provider will carry out work in response to instructions from Eskom rather than under a fixed schedule. Because the tender states a five-year duration, it suits suppliers that can offer sustained, long-term service capacity.
The scope covers two main service areas. The first is the routine servicing, maintenance, and repair of fuel pump dispensers, which likely includes inspection, calibration, component replacement, and fault diagnosis to keep fuelling equipment operational and compliant. The second is the integrity testing of underground fuel storage tanks, which is typically carried out to detect leaks, confirm structural soundness, and support environmental and safety compliance. Work at a nuclear facility is expected to be subject to strict site access controls, safety protocols, and environmental regulation. Prospective bidders should therefore assume that personnel security vetting, safety compliance records, and adherence to site-specific procedures may be required, though the exact conditions must be confirmed in the tender documents.
For suppliers, this opportunity offers a long-term relationship with a major state-owned utility and a stable, recurring revenue stream over five years. It is particularly relevant for fuel equipment service companies, petroleum infrastructure specialists, and tank testing firms with experience in regulated or high-security environments.

The details above are drawn from the tender title and description, so interested bidders should download and review the full tender pack to confirm eligibility criteria, technical specifications, pricing requirements, compliance obligations, and submission instructions before the closing date of 20 November 2026.
This tender is best suited to fuel equipment service and maintenance companies with technical expertise in fuel dispensing systems, as well as underground storage tank testing and petroleum infrastructure firms holding relevant certifications. Companies with experience in nuclear, power generation, or other high-security and heavily regulated industrial sites will be well positioned, particularly if they can meet vetting, safety, and environmental compliance requirements. Businesses should have the capacity to respond promptly to call-outs, since the work is on an as-and-when-required basis. Small and medium enterprises may be eligible under South African preferential procurement rules, but they should verify their B-BBEE status, tax compliance, and any CIDB or registration requirements against the full tender documents.
