About this award

The United States Trade and Development Agency awarded a $451,609 firm-fixed-price definitive contract to Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Inc. for a Middle East, North Africa, Europe, and Eurasia natural gas and refining technologies desk study on September 29, 2025.

The originating solicitation called for comprehensive technical guidance, market assessments, and project recommendations for regional infrastructure investments including regassification terminals, pipelines, storage, methane abatement, flaring, petrochemical and oil refining, and gas power projects. The contractor was to conduct up to eight preliminary assessments and six detailed project reports, with personnel proficient in Arabic and Russian languages strongly preferred. Evaluation prioritized technical expertise in natural gas infrastructure, regional experience, and language capabilities over price. The solicitation was unrestricted with no set-aside and limited to U.S. firms; contractor and subcontractor employees were required to be U.S. citizens or permanent residents.

Place of performance is Waltham, MA. The contract runs through September 28, 2027. The solicitation originally closed August 12, 2025, but was amended twice to extend the deadline to August 26, 2025. Subcontractor usage was restricted to less than 50% of proposed price. The contractor may be required to travel to the MENA-EE region for up to two six-day trips and participate in up to two reverse trade missions.
