The Danish Coastal Authority tenders a contract to replace the existing booster station in Hvide Sande. The contract includes disposal of existing booster station and establishment of new booster station. The new booster station will be set up and installed at the same location as the existing one in Hvide Sande. The existing electrically powered booster station is used to transport sand from the dredging vessel down the coast. The booster station pumps water mixed with sand via an island 400 mm pipeline. The total length is about 2,500 m. The new booster station will replace the existing booster station. In addition to the design of the booster station itself, the supplier must design, among other things, the booster station's foundation, frequency converter and cable routing for use in the Danish Coastal Directorate's execution of these. The supplier is also responsible for the time coordination of the Danish Coastal Authority and its own execution. The booster station must be supplied with a 24-month warranty.
It has been decided that the Danish Coastal Directorate's existing booster station will be replaced with a new booster pump, electric motor, frequency converter and remote control. The existing booster station must be disposed of prior to installing the new one.

- Education/training of the Danish Coastal Directorate's staff.

The Danish Coastal Authority has no client deliveries in relation to the new booster station, but will be responsible for converting existing frequency converter buildings, foundations and underground wiring in accordance with the supplier's instructions. The contract thus includes the design of, among other things, the foundation for the new booster station as well as frequency converter construction and cable feeding for use in the Danish Coastal Directorate's execution.
The new booster station will be able to replace the existing booster station on site. The booster station shall be powered by an electric motor with frequency converter. In addition, the entire booster station must be able to be controlled locally and remotely controlled from ship.
