mailto:tiffany.n.gallon.civ@us.navy.mil

h) Vessel cannot exceed a maximum displacement of 60,000 MT.

i) Vessel cannot exceed a maximum manifold height above waterline of 15.00 meters while laden.

j) Vessel must be capable of maintaining a minimum Speed of Advance (SOA) of 13 knots in moderate weather (Force 5) while laden.

k) Owner/Offeror must provide vessel stowage plan demonstrating vessel’s ability to load a minimum of 235,000 bbls JA1 with a maximum draft of 9.80 meters.

l) Owner/Offeror must provide a copy of vessel’s current Class Society issued Safety Management Certificate.

m) Owner/Offeror must provide a copy of vessel’s current Flag State issued International Ship

Security Certificate.

n) For U.S. flagged vessels, the Owner/Offeror must provide a copy of vessel’s current USCG Certificate of Inspection (COI). For foreign flagged vessels, the Owner/Offeror must provide a copy of vessel’s current USCG Certificate of Compliance (COC) (if applicable), or the Flag State equivalent. A Flag State equivalent certificate shall include on it any deficiencies discovered by the Flag State during the inspection of the vessel and their remedies, the minimum manning requirements, the safety equipment and appliances required on board, the total number of persons allowed to be on board the vessel, the names of the owners and operators of the vessel. The COI, COC, or Flag State equivalent certificate submitted by the offeror shall be current and not expire throughout the duration of the charter.

o) Owner/Offeror must provide vessel itinerary from offer submission to intended arrival at load port.

p) The proposed vessel’s cargo tanks that are nominated by the Owner/Offeror to load the intended cargo must be compatible with the intended cargo. This compatibility will be assessed using the following references:

1. MIL-STD-3004-1, Table XXIV, Minimum Requirements for Preparation of Cargo Tanks

(latest version).

2. Energy Institute, HM 50, Guidelines for the preparation of tanks and lines for marine tank vessels carrying petroleum and refined products (latest revision).

The aforementioned references are hereby incorporated into the RFP and MIL-STD-3004-1 is available via ASSIST Quick Search: https://quicksearch.dla.mil/. The assessment for compatibility will be conducted on the basis of the Certificates of Quality for the vessel’s last three cargoes.

q) Owner/Offeror must confirm upon arrival at the load port, the vessel shall be in a clean, gas-free condition and ready for internal tank inspection of the cargo tanks, which will be used to carry this product. These tanks and all additional cargo tanks, ballast tanks, slop tanks and/or void spaces adjacent to these tanks shall be clean and certified as gas free by a Certified Marine Chemist for the tank inspection prior to the ship being allowed to load the Government’s cargo.

https://quicksearch.dla.mil/

The Owner/Offeror shall provide at their expense a Certified Marine Chemist to certify the ship’s tanks are safe for entry for the internal tank inspection by the Government and/or Charterer representative. The Certified Marine Chemist must enter all the ship’s cargo tanks in advance of the Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) and perform a full four-corner entry inspection.

Certified Marine Chemist’s inspection must include all tank pockets identified by the QAR to the satisfaction of the QAR. If a prior (last, 2nd to last, or 3rd to last) cargo contained a percentage of benzene, the Owner’s / Offeror’s Certified Marine Chemist must arrive to the vessel equipped with benzene detection tubes to measure toxicity for benzene content. Acceptable benzene levels are as follows: (1) the maximum time-weighted average (TWA) exposure limit is 1 part of benzene vapor per million parts of air (1 ppm) average for an 8-hour workday; and (2) the maximum short-term exposure limit (STEL) is 5 ppm for any 15-minute period. Gasoline tanks, after cleaning should be ventilated with forced air or acceptable means for as long as possible to ensure levels are reduced enough to allow entry. All safe for entry / toxicity / flammability assessments shall be performed in the presence of the inspecting QAR. Owner/Offeror shall provide time needed to re-inert after inspection.

r) Owner/Offeror must provide, if vessel cargo tanks have heating coils, coil type or composition

(such as stainless steel, copper, etc.). If vessel cargo tanks have heating coils, owner must provide the date heating coils were last pressure tested and the results of the test (passed or failed). To be eligible for award, the result of the last pressure test must be “pass” and the date of the last pressure test cannot exceed 12 months for the duration of this charter. Vessels that have cargo tanks with coils that are incompatible with the cargo to be carried will be rejected.

s) If vessel cargo tanks are internally coated, Owner/Offeror shall provide the coating type (epoxy, inorganic zinc, etc.). Coal tar coating is not acceptable. If tanks are not coated then state “none”.

Coatings that are incompatible with the fuel to be carried will be rejected.

t) Owner/Offeror shall provide copies of Certificates of Quality for last three cargoes. These

Certificates must contain all test data required by specification for the products that were previously loaded (last three). Vessel Certificates of Quality from vessel post-load samples are preferred, but if unavailable shore tank Certificates of Quality representing quality of product loaded are acceptable. They shall be submitted for each shore tank as well as the vessel tanks after loading (composite sample). Results of “typical” and “FAME-free declarations” are not acceptable. Additionally, if any of the three provided COQs are for the following product types, the below requirements apply and must be addressed in the offer.

(A) Naphtha / Condensates: Mercaptan Sulphur, reported in “parts per million” (ppm) or

“mass percent”, or Doctor Test (ASTMD 4952). Additionally, naphtha is required to be lead-free, per HM 50. Testing for lead is required; lead content shall not exceed 5 mg/L.

(B) Gasoline (Motor or Aviation): It must be stated whether the previous product was

“leaded” or “unleaded”. This is needed to determine cargo tank “safe entry” testing requirements.

(C) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME): The provisions of MIL-STD-3004-1, Table XXIV, Minimum Requirements for the Preparation of Tanker Cargo Tanks (latest revision) note 5 apply. When any of the last three non-DLA-E cargoes have consisted of diesel or heating oil products, FAME test (EN 14078 and ASTM D7371) results shall be provided for each applicable cargo; examples of diesel or heating oil products include, but are not limited to, ULSD, DF1, DF2, DS1, DS2, DSS, DSW, MGO, Gasoil, FS1, FS2, FS4, FS5, FS6, and IFO. In scenarios where FAME testing is not available for non-DLA-E cargoes, the applicable cargo shall be deemed to have contained FAME greater than 5 vol % and evaluation will be conducted under the MIL-STD-3004-1, Table XXIV, Minimum Requirements for Preparation of Cargo Tanks (latest revision) under procedures for biodiesel blends greater than B5.

u) In addition to copies of Certificates of Quality, Owner/Offeror shall provide loading plans for last three cargoes when requested. The government reserves the right to accept or reject previous cargoes it deems may cause harm to the quality of government owned product(s).

v) Owner/Offeror shall confirm the vessel is able to take upper, middle, lower, bottom, and all-level samples of the cargo (to include OBQ & ROB) without contaminating them from the sampling location. If unable to do so or if the sampling location is contaminated or suspected to be contaminated, the Owner/Offeror agrees that the Charterer will require open sampling on a case-by-case basis, consistent with safety and local terminal regulations.

w) Owner/Offeror agrees where cargo is carried after contract award and prior to delivery to provide cargo type/description prior to loading, and applicable Certificates of Quality (to include all test data required in the initial RFP) for review within 48 hours after loading said cargo. Test shall be on a sample taken from the ship versus a representative sample from a shore facility. Any rejection of the Certificates of Quality by the Government shall result in the Government cancelling this contract at no cost to the Government. This compatibility will be assessed using the MIL-STD-3004-1, Table XXIV, Minimum Requirements for Preparation of Cargo Tanks (latest revision).

x) Vessel must meet all MSC requirements for reporting. Vessel shall provide position/status reports in-port and at-sea every six hours daily at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 hours local Washington, DC time (GMT-5 EST/GMT-4 EDT) and 72/48/24/12 hr pre-arrival notifications for all ports to Area Command and COMSC TANKERS. Reports shall be sent to the following email addresses:

1. CTF63-MSCEURAF-N3-CARGO@US.NAVY.MIL

2. DLA_TANKER_POSITION_REPORT@DLA.MIL

3. MSC_BWC@US.NAVY.MIL

4. COMSC.TANKERS@NAVY.MIL

5. MSCHQ_TANKERS_NRFK@US.NAVY.MIL

y) Vessel will be required submit a Monthly Voyage Abstract form on a monthly basis and emailed to MSCHQ_TANKERS_NRFK@US.NAVY.MIL no later than the first day of the month following the month of performance. For time charters that complete prior to the end of the month, the report must be received no later than two calendar days after completion of charter (off-hire). Entries must start with the date the ship presents NOR and is accepted on hire. All columns must be completed as noted. Pull down menus for columns C, X and Y are the only comments to be use. Built in macros/formulas are not to be altered.

z) Confirm that Owner/Offeror agrees to all other terms and conditions as per TANKTIME 2024 (REV.1 (12-24)). Counters to TANKTIME 2024 (REV.1 (12-24)) terms are not acceptable until written confirmation is provided by the charter.
