TANKER PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT
WPAC MR TANKER
VESSEL(S) REQUIRED:
This service is the primary marine transportation method for Defense Logistics Agency - Energy fuels throughout the INDOPACOM AOR for the replenishment of Defense Fuel Support Pipelines (DFSP) and therefore mission essential to the US Navy and Department of Defense.
One clean, USCG approved, upon delivery U.S. Flag or foreign flag to be reflagged prior to delivery, double hull tanker with an Inert Gas System (IGS) and Segregated Ballast Tanks (SBTs) that is capable of carrying a minimum of 240,000 BBLS of clean petroleum products (intention JP5, JP8, JAA, JA1, or F76) within the vessel’s natural segregation in designated cargo tanks with double valve isolation and with the following minimum particulars:
a) Vessel shall have the ability to load a minimum of 240,000 BBLs JP5, JP8, JAA, JA1 or
F76 while not to exceeding a laden draft of 12.8 meters.
b) Vessel shall not exceed a maximum LOA of 190 meters.
c) Vessel shall not exceed a maximum deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 50,000 MT (Re-admeasuring DWT is allowed at Contractor’s expense).
d) The vessel shall possess a 10-Ton boom or crane that is capable of reaching both port and starboard side that is of sufficient strength to lift cargo hoses safely. Vessel shall be fitted with cruciform bits at the manifold.
e) Vessel shall have a minimum of three segregations with double valve isolation between each segregation.
f) Vessel shall be able to machine-wash cargo tanks, as applicable, while underway.
g) Vessel shall be able to perform cargo operations at offshore petroleum facility.
h) Vessel shall be able to perform cargo operations at anchorage (lightering).
i) Vessel shall be able to perform cargo operations underway via fueling at sea (CONSOL) stations and Fuel Delivery Station (FDS).
j) Vessel shall be capable of maintaining a minimum Speed of Advance (SOA) of 13 knots in moderate weather (Force 5) while laden.
k) Vessel shall be capable of providing a minimum 12 berths available for government-embarked personnel.
l) Contractor shall provide at least one passing SIRE inspection in accordance with the schedule in Attachment (15).
m) Contractor 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.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
n) The Contractor will provide within 30 days after award the following supporting information:
1. Delivery Schedule/Progress Chart. The Contractor will provide an initial Plan of
Action and Milestones (POAM) in Microsoft Project compatible format. The POAM Gantt chart shall include the major tasks affecting delivery of the vessel including all modifications or reflagging requirements, if applicable, as identified in Attachments (09)-(10)-(11)-(12)-(13) and (14). Each task shall contain the below information with a projected delivery date shall be provided.
A) The anticipated start date, end date and overall duration
B) Task dependencies, usually indicated by arrows on the Gantt chart (“x” must be completed before/after “y” starts, milestone “a” must be passed before task “b” starts, etc.)
C) The critical path, typically defined as the sequence of project activities that add up to the longest overall duration. This determines the shortest time possible to complete the project. Any delay of an activity on the critical path directly affects the planned project completion date.
2. QMS Certification. The operating company of the vessel will be an ISO 9001
Compliant organization that has a functioning Quality Management System (QMS) that is certified by an accredited organization.
o) Contractor 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 for the last three cargoes for review. 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 the Preparation of Tanker Cargo Tanks (latest revision) note 5 apply, hereby incorporated into the contract and available upon request.
p) The vessel will 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. The Contractor shall provide at the Contractor’s 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 Contractor’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. Contractor shall provide time needed to re-inert after inspection.
q) The vessel’s cargo tanks 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 contract 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.
r) Vessel will meet all MSC requirements for reporting. Vessel will provide position/status reports in port and at-sea every six (6) hours daily at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 hours local Washington, DC time (GMT-5 EST/GMT-4 EDT) and 72/48/24/12 hour pre-arrival notifications for all ports to Area Command and COMSC TANKERS.
