About this award
The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy awarded a $58.87 million definitive contract to ASRC Consulting & Environmental Services, LLC for the Alaska Gas Hydrate Project on August 4, 2021, under a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure with no set-aside, extending services through September 30, 2026.
ASRC Consulting & Environmental Services is an Alaska Native Corporation-owned small disadvantaged business and SBA 8(a) Program Participant. Place of performance is Prudhoe Bay, Alaska.
The originating solicitation announced intent to sole-source the contract to the predecessor entity (ASRC Energy Services Alaska, Inc.) based on exclusive selection by Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation as the single operator permitted by the State of Alaska to drill and operate wells at the project location for methane hydrate production testing and reservoir characterization.
