The federal contract IDV award SPE60122D1503 is an Indefinite Delivery Contract held by Arabian Industrial Gases Co L.l.c (Aigco), a for-profit manufacturer based in the United Arab Emirates. The contract, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA Energy) with a ceiling value of $1,616,107.79, covers the delivery of critical aviation support gases and equipment to U.S. military installations across the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility through July 2025. This includes the provision of aviator's breathing oxygen (ABO), technical-grade nitrogen, and associated regulators and equipment to locations in the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and Djibouti.
The original DLA Energy solicitation SPE601-20-R-0322 sought proposals to establish multiple firm fixed-price, requirements-type contracts for the supply of ABO and technical-grade nitrogen to OCONUS Middle East locations. The five-year contract period runs from July 2020 to June 2025. Aigco has received numerous delivery orders against this IDV, totaling over $1.6 million from 2020 to 2023, to fulfill DLA Energy's requirement for these vital aviation support gases and equipment to sustain U.S. military operations and logistics in the region. No set-aside designations were applied to this award or Aigco's other IDIQs with DLA Energy.
