(1) A shipment of gaseous helium in ISO containers to Antarctica is required annually to support NASA's Long Duration Balloon Program. The Government anticipates ordering 960,000 scf - six (6) ISO containers at 160,000 scf each. See “Special Delivery Equipment Requirements” for ISO container requirements. The shipments are sent via ocean transit using a ship commissioned by the National Science

Foundation (NSF). All ocean shipments originate from the Port of Hueneme, located at Port Hueneme, California. Depending on loading schedule, the trailers the ISO containers are delivered on to Port Hueneme may be offloaded upon delivery or retained for up to 3 weeks. The vessel departs in early December, arrives at McMurdo Station in mid-January, and then returns to Port Hueneme in March. This round-trip ocean transit occurs only once per year. Helium ISO containers must be delivered to the Port of Hueneme no later than mid-November each year. CSBF initiates a purchase order for the desired number of ISO containers no later than August of each year to allow for adequate coordination prior to shipment.

(2) NASA/CSBF launches balloons from McMurdo Station starting in December. The helium gas (in ISO containers) shipped via sea from Port Hueneme is intended for use one year later. At the conclusion of the launch period (approximately the end of December or early January) any empty containers are delivered to the port at McMurdo Station for return shipment to Port Hueneme. An ISO container shipped in December from Port Hueneme will not be returned to the United States for approximately 15 months. Based on current operational plans, CSBF historically requires six (6) ISO containers on site in Antarctica during the October-December period. Therefore, due to shipping logistics, the contractor must have as many as twelve (12) ISO containers dedicated for NASA use: up to six (6) in shipment (between December and March) and up to six (6) on site in McMurdo Station, Antarctica supporting the launches.
