About this file
This is a Statement of Work for aftercooler core replacement and cleaning services aboard the NOAA Ship FERDINAND R. HASSLER. The work involves removing and replacing government-furnished aftercooler cores on four diesel engines: two Caterpillar C-32 main propulsion diesel engines (MPDEs) and two Caterpillar C9 ship's service diesel generators (SSDGs), with serial numbers PME RND00123, SME RND00124, PDG C9J00506, and SDG C9J00507.
The contractor must perform the following primary tasks: install the provided aftercooler cores on all four engines; provide new OEM seal and gasket sets for each engine installation; supply sealant for aftercooler cores as needed; inspect and clean turbo housings, air lines, and intake plenums; inspect all connection points and removed parts; submit a condition found report recommending any additional maintenance or replacement parts; reinstall all components using new OEM seals and gaskets; perform operational testing of all four engines to satisfaction of the Chief Marine Engineer or Port Engineer; wash, chemically clean, and hydrostatic test the removed cores to 30 psi; return removed cores to the port office; and provide a comprehensive service summary report including engine hours, fuel burn, inspection observations, and maintenance recommendations. The contractor must use Caterpillar-recommended cleaners (Hydrosolv 4165 or Hydrosolv 100) at specified concentrations and temperatures. Three maintenance windows are scheduled: Norfolk, VA (June 22-26, 2026), Charleston, SC (September 7-10, 2026), and New Castle, NH (November 2-30, 2026), with dates subject to change based on the ship's schedule. The point of contact is Port Engineer Justin Kusterer at 240-704-2815 or justin.kusterer@noaa.gov.
