About this file
This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) for the purchase of Shell biodegradable EAL oil for the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter WALNUT (WLB-225). The SOW outlines the background, which indicates severe conditions in the controllable pitch propeller (CPP) system due to high water content and high acid levels. The Coast Guard requires 6 drums of Shell Biodegradable ISO 68 hydraulic oil to conduct a full system purge and flush to remove contaminants. The vendor must ship the palletized oil drums to the USCGC WALNUT in Pensacola, FL, with a requested delivery by 30 December 2024.
The related federal contract opportunity, Solicitation Number 70Z08500399, is a combined synopsis/solicitation for the required Shell biodegradable oil. It is a total small business set-aside, to be awarded on a firm-fixed-price basis using simplified acquisition procedures. The NAICS code is 336611 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees.

SOW for purchase of Shell biodegradable EAL oil for
USCGC WALNUT (WLB-225)
1. Background: The most recent laboratory analysis results for the CPP system indicated severe conditions for high water content and high acid. Tech Standard 262 defines severe as follows: SEVERE Lubricant physical properties, contamination, and/or component wear is clearly serious enough to require immediate diagnostic and corrective action to prevent major long-term loss of performance or component failure in service. Increases in operating hazard are likely. Short-term loss of performance may already be present. Large-scale repairs may be required. It may be necessary to remove unit/component from service until a confirming resample is tested and diagnostics confirm that repairs are required. Currently the recommendation from the ALS laboratory is to resample and submit for analysis to verify water content and acid number and dehydrate lubricant using heated vacuum dehydrator. Resample and monitor onboard using handheld Fluidscan tester. With the current laboratory results and previous consistent failed samples SF feels that the Shell Biodegradable ISO 68 is not a sustainable hydraulic fluid for use in a warm weather environment where condensation formation is unavoidable. Immediate actions will be to utilize the filter cart and heater as well as continue to closely monitor CPP system for abnormal fluid pressures and temperatures.
2. CPP system was cleaned out and diluted. WALNUT requires additional oil to conduct a full system purge and flush to remove contaminates.
3. SFLC engineering recommends a system flush and purge.
4. This solicitation is to provide:
06 EACH 55-gallon drums of EAL SHELL ISO 68 HYDRAULIC OIL.
5. Vendor to ship palletized oil drums to:
USCGC WALNUT
211 South Ave Ste C.
Pensacola, FL 32508
6. Request shipping at earliest conveyance but not to exceed 30 December 2024.
