We noticed that the bid requirements where changed. Most notably the original quote was for explosion proof fixtures and now the bid states hazardous location. I was on the TSV-4 vessel with the Chief Engineer Rod Thornton and he specifically wanted the LFXBs. Now I see the spec opens it up for any brand/style fixture and also has an external color finish that excludes Phoenix. Can you confirm if this is the updated bid requirement? I have reached out to the Chief Engineer as well.

I also want to point out that the bid title states explosion proof fixtures but the bid specs state hazardous location. That is a level of ambiguity that needs to be clarified. You don’t want to put a hazardous rated fixture in a explosion type environment.
Response Received:
