About this award
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) awarded a definitive firm fixed-price contract valued at $6.15M to Waterman Transport Inc. (operating as Central Gulf Lines) on July 18, 2025, for a dry cargo voyage charter with an ultimate completion date of September 23, 2025. This contract supports MSC's strategic sealift operations by chartering vessel capacity for transporting military cargo, including wheeled vehicles, unmanned aircraft, and breakbulk materials. The charter involves multiple load and discharge ports spanning Corpus Christi, Texas; Cuxhaven, Germany; and Gdynia, Poland, with layday commencing August 5, 2025. No small business set-aside was applied to this procurement, allowing all responsible sources to compete. Waterman Transport, a subsidiary of Seacor Holdings Inc., was selected through an unrestricted solicitation process conducted by MSC.
Waterman Transport Inc. brings substantial maritime logistics expertise to this engagement as an established provider of ocean transportation services to the Department of Defense. The company currently holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Air Mobility Command—the $4B Universal Services Contract-10 and the VISA Contingency Services contract—positioning it as a critical logistics provider for U.S. military global transportation requirements. The contractor's experience executing international dry cargo charters ranging from 18 to 106 days, combined with demonstrated capabilities in hazardous materials handling and specialized military cargo movements, aligns directly with MSC's operational needs for this single-voyage charter supporting military redeployment and supply operations.
