About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is soliciting proposals for a 60-day tanker time charter requiring one clean, approved, double-hull tanker capable of carrying a minimum of 240,000 barrels of clean petroleum products including JP5, JA1, and F76 fuel. The vessel must meet specific technical requirements including a maximum length of 189.0 meters, maximum deadweight of 50,000 metric tons, ability to maintain 13-knot speed in moderate weather conditions, and must be equipped with an Inert Gas System and Segregated Ballast Tanks. The solicitation is being conducted under FAR 13.5 Simplified Procedures for Commercial Products and Commercial Services, with the government contemplating a firm-fixed-price contract structure. Fuel consumption will be evaluated at a standard price of $1,067.87 per metric ton for Marine Gas Oil/Marine Diesel Oil. Proposals must be submitted by July 3, 2025, at 1100 Eastern Time, with all vessels required to meet various inspection and certification standards.
This solicitation does not include any set-aside designations and no incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation. The charter period is specifically defined as seven days, running from July 22, 2025, to July 29, 2025, representing a short-term transportation requirement rather than a traditional 60-day charter despite the solicitation title. The place of performance spans the Western Pacific region, with intended delivery at S-Oil/Onsan, Korea, and redelivery at DFSP Hakozaki/Yokohama, Japan. The solicitation includes a comprehensive fuel consumption spreadsheet that details various operational scenarios and associated costs for precise budgeting purposes. Notably, operators should be aware that the Red Sea, Bab al-Mandeb Straits, and Gulf of Aden are designated as imminent danger pay locations, which may impact routing and operational planning decisions.
