In 2008 the European Union launched Operation ATALANTA in the framework of the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). The mandate for this operation has been extended until 12 December 2012. In the context of EU Member States’ naval forces engagement in a range of maritime tasks worldwide, EDA initiated a “Request for Information” (RFI) on Refuelling at Sea for EU Maritime Operations.
The purpose of this RFI is to gather current information about commercial solutions for refueling at sea of naval ships.
All companies are kindly invited to participate.
