3 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 In 1986, the Indian Navy planned to establish a major Naval Base at Karwar (Karnataka), about 120 km South of Goa on the West coast of India under Project Seabird. A Master Plan for the Project was prepared in 1990, to be executed in phases, for creation of infrastructure and facilities for the basing of ships/ submarines, with all associated operational/support facilities. Phase I of Project Seabird has been completed and a limited number of ships, for which basing facilities have been created, are already operating out of the Naval Base. The facilities at Naval Base, Karwar, will be constructed in accordance with the Detailed Project Report (DPR) prepared in 2010 and reviewed by the Project Management Consultant (PMC) in Phase II A of the Project Seabird is planned to enable increased berthing for larger modern ships, submarines and aircrafts. Existing facilities at Karwar will require considerable augmentation for efficient basing, operations and maintenance support of the additional fleet assets. Logistics and family support infrastructure will also be augmented. 2 PURPOSE 2.1 Augmentation of the existing Naval Armament Depot (NAD), Missile Technical Position (MTP) and construction of additional facilities are an essential requirement of Project Seabird Phase IIA. Design for new facilities and additions to the existing facilities will have to comply with standards laid down in Storage and Transport of Explosive Committee (STEC) regulations, Naval Magazine and Explosive Regulations (NMER) and Centre for Fire Environment and Explosive Safety (CFEES) guidelines. 2.2 Accordingly, the purpose of this (EOI) is to enable shortlisting of competent and capable design consultants with proven track record, who could be appointed as a Design Consultant for Armament Storage Facilities (DC- NAD) required to be constructed in Phase IIA of Project Seabird. 2.3 A detailed Request for Proposal (RFP) will be subsequently issued to the shortlisted firms and proposals evaluated in accordance with Government of India guidelines for the selection and appointment of DC-NAD. 3 OBJECTIVE 3.1 Naval Armament Depot (NAD) is a facility for storage, preparation and maintenance of various types of armament/ explosives. NAD was constructed at Site E Page: 2 of 19

4 as part of the Project Seabird Phase I. NAD needs to be suitably augmented to cater to the increased ammunition requirements for a large Naval fleet based at Karwar and aviation needs related to air operations based at the nearby Naval Air Station (NAS). All services including, but not limited to, power supply, water distribution system, firefighting, storage capacity, IT & security networks are required to be provided at Site E for the augmented NAD, MTP and NAI facilities. 3.2 Missile Technical Position (MTP) is a specialized technical facility intended for the storage, preparation, maintenance and upkeep of Surface to Surface Missiles (SSMs) and Surface to Air Missiles (SAMs). Limited facilities at MTP were constructed at Site E, as part of the Project Seabird Phase I. MTP needs to be augmented to meet the requirements associated with the missile weaponry of newer ships, submarines and aircrafts planned to be based at Karwar. 3.3 Naval Armament Inspectorate (NAI) consists of administrative and technical facilities and a Rocket Motor Static Firing Facility (RMSFF). The NAI is required to be constructed in Phase IIA at Site E, in close proximity to the existing NAD and MTP facilities. 3.4 Common Facilities Area (CFA) at Site- E was developed as part of Project Seabird Phase I, for supporting the non-explosive functions of NAD, MTP and NAI at one common location. The same is required to be augmented during Phase IIA of the Project. 4 TECHNICAL DETAILS OF THE PROJECT SEABIRD PHASE IIA 4.1 Duration Additional Armament Storage Facilities under the Project Seabird Phase IIA are planned to be designed and constructed along with all other utilities and services, which are expected to be progressed simultaneously, to ensure the operational availability of all essential facilities at Site E in approximately five years including planning, design, tendering and construction period.
