3127 – HURLEY REPOWER GENERATOR PROCUREMENT
C01 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF WORK
The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is issuing this Request for Proposals to procure equipment to repower the electrical power plant on the Dredge HURLEY.
The HURLEY is a 384-foot dustpan dredge that was classed by ABS in 1994 but is not currently classed. The HURLEY’s ABSID number is H-9302332.
The existing powerplant on the HURLEY is composed of three (3) diesel generator sets. Each set consists of a General Electric model FD engine driving a General Electric model 5ATI generator through a line shaft.
The electrical powerplant on the HURLEY was designed to power the vessel by running two (2) generators with the third on standby for emergency use. Due to recent upgrades to the vessel, all three (3) generators are required to be online to provide enough power to the vessel. The intention of the repower is to install three (3) new generator sets that will be able to run the powerplant as it was originally designed (running two (2) generators with the third on standby for emergency use).
The new equipment will be provided as Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) for future installation aboard the HURLEY, which is home ported in Memphis, Tennessee. The repowering will be performed at a commercial shipyard under a separate contract to be awarded at a later date. Equipment warranties and warranty agreements shall be set up for support in the Memphis, Tennessee area.
The Contractor shall provide the following new equipment and services under this solicitation:
• Three (3) Diesel Generator Sets
