About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command is seeking a 60-day time charter for a tanker vessel capable of transporting clean petroleum products in the Western Pacific region. The solicitation (N3220525R6004) requires a clean, double-hull tanker with an Inert Gas System and Segregated Ballast Tanks that can carry a minimum of 240,000 barrels of jet fuel (JP5, JA1, and F76) across designated cargo tanks. Specific vessel qualifications include compatibility with delivery at S-Oil/Onsan, Korea, and redelivery at DFSP Hakozaki/Yokohama, Japan. The charter's laydays are set to commence on 08 July 2025 and cancel on 09 July 2025, with proposals due by 10 June 2025 at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. Potential bidders must submit comprehensive documentation demonstrating vessel capabilities, fuel consumption metrics, and operational readiness.
The solicitation is unrestricted and technically open to all qualified vendors, with the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 483111 for Deep Sea Freight Transportation. The place of performance is specifically in Japan, with operational areas spanning the Western Pacific and Sea of Japan. While no specific set-aside is mandated, the solicitation notes potential eligibility for Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) participants. Fuel consumption will be calculated using a standard Marine Gas Oil/Marine Diesel Oil price of $1,068.87 per metric ton, with detailed tracking required across various operational scenarios including underway and in-port states. The contract duration is precisely 60 days, with strict requirements for vessel condition, cargo capacity, and technical specifications that will likely form the core of vendor evaluation criteria.
