Interested parties must demonstrate vessel capacity to accommodate at least two supercargo personnel and provide detailed information including vessel specifications, proposed layday dates, daily charter hire rates with any applicable delivery/redelivery bonuses, and fuel consumption data for both underway and inport operations.
