With the following minimum particulars:

b) Under Cargo Preference Act of 1904, preference will be given to U.S. flag vessels.

c) Vessel must be a party to the Ship Inspection Reporting System (SIRE System) and provide a current Q-88 with offer (no more than 60 days old). Q-88 must detail current acceptances and dates of inspection.

d) Owners must provide list of approvals that include the inspection dates and expiry dates.

e) At the date of offer for this charter, there must be a SIRE report on the vessel, which has been registered in the SIRE register, which is less than 6 months old at all times during the performance of this contract.

f) Vessel’s age shall be less than 15 years for the duration of the charter.

g) Vessel must have SBT.

h) Vessel must have an IGS.

i) Owner must provide a copy of vessel’s current ISM / Safety Management Certificate.

j) Owner must provide a copy of vessel’s current International Ship Security Certificate.

k) Owner must provide vessel stowage plan demonstrating vessel’s ability to load a minimum of 185,000 bbls F76 with a 10.9 SW draft.

l) Vessel cannot exceed a maximum LOA of 200 meters.

m) Vessel cannot exceed a maximum DWT 50,000MT. Vessel can re-measure, but all cost associated with the re-measurement are for the owners account.

n) Owner must provide vessel itinerary from offer to arrival laydays at load port ready for inspection.

o) Owner must confirm vessel will arrive at load port in a clean, gas-free condition, and be ready for internal tank inspection by Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). Ensure any adjacent tanks are also clean and gas free. Contractor shall provide (Owner's account) a Certified Marine Chemist to certify tanks safe for entry for internal tank inspection by Government / Charterer representative. Contractor will provide time needed to re-inert after inspection. If a prior (last and next to last) cargo contained a percentage of benzene, Owner’s Certified Marine Chemist must also measure toxicity for Benzene content and certify safe for entry. All safe for entry / toxicity / flammability assessments will be performed in the presence of the inspecting QAR.

p) Owner must provide, if vessel cargo tanks have heating coils, coil type or composition (such as stainless steel, copper, etc.).

q) 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). Date of last pressure test cannot exceed 12 months for duration of this charter. Vessel tanks with copper or yellow metal compounds are normally not acceptable for Jet Fuel cargoes.

r) Owner must provide, if vessel cargo tanks are internally coated, 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.

s) Owner must provide copies of Certificates of Quality for last three cargoes. These Certificates should 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. The Certificates of Quality should contain the test data required by the specification for the product, which were loaded. They shall be submitted for each shore tank as well as the vessel tanks after loading (composite sample). Results of “typical” are not acceptable. Additionally, the following are required for the specific products mentioned:

1. Naphtha / Condensates: Mercaptan Sulphur, reported in “parts per million” (ppm) or “mass percent,” or Doctor Test (ASTMD 4952). Otherwise, Certificates of Quality should contain the test data required by the specification for the products, which were loaded.

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.

t) Owner must confirm if the last three cargoes carried were FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) free. If tanks did contain FAME, owners must provide a statement stating the vessel cargo tanks were cleaned in accordance with the guidance in Energy Institute HM50.

u) Owner must confirm vessel must be 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, Charterer will require open sampling on a tank-by-tank basis, consistent with safety and local terminal regulations.

v) Owner 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.

w) 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 PM51.
