Dienstleistungen

The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (Alfred Wegener Institute - AWI) is a research institute in Bremerhaven with over 1,200 employees. The AWI is primarily active in the cold and temperate regions of the world. Working together with numerous national and international partners, the AWI is actively involved in unravelling the complex processes at work in the “Earth System”.

Together with British Antarctic Survey (BAS), the AWI requires supply services at their research stations in Antarctic Shelf Ice (Neumayer Station III for AWI and Halley Station for BAS).

The BAS is the United Kingdom's national polar research institute with over 400 employees. It has a dual purpose, to conduct polar science, enabling better understanding of global issues, and to provide an active presence in the Antarctic on behalf of the UK.

Subject of this tender is a supply trip to Antarctic Research Stations (vessel charter), round trip Bremerhaven (GER) / Felixstowe (GB) / Cape Town (ZA) / Antartic Shelf Ice (Neumayer Station III and Halley Station) and back to transport mixed goods (conventional, bulk, container) including carrier’s stowage, loading and discharge activities on shelf ice (Neumayer Station III) on or around Christmas 2023. Vessel must have at least Ice Class 1A and be Polar Code fitted. Experienced crew and support staff is a prerequisite.
