About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is seeking to procure a 60-day tanker time charter for a clean, approved, U.S. or foreign flag, double-hull tanker vessel. The vessel must have an inert gas system and segregated ballast tanks with the capability to carry a minimum of 240,000 barrels of clean products including JP5, JA1, and F76 within the vessel's natural segregation in designated cargo tanks with double valve isolation. The contract performance will span the Western Pacific and Sea of Japan region, with delivery intended at GS CALTEX in Yeosu, South Korea, and redelivery at DFSP Okinawa, Japan. This pre-solicitation notice was posted on August 29, 2025, with responses due by September 8, 2025. The proposed solicitation number is N3220525R6045, and interested parties should contact Tiffany Gallon or Michelle James at the contracting office located at Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia.
This procurement is designated as unrestricted with no set-aside provisions, meaning all responsible sources may submit proposals for consideration. The contracting officer's market research supported the decision to release this as an unrestricted competition, with concurrence from the Deputy Associate Director of Small Business Programs. No current contractor or incumbent information is specified in the notice. The contract award dollar amount and specific award date remain to be determined, though the charter period is clearly defined as 60 days. The minimum cargo capacity requirement of 240,000 barrels represents a significant tanker vessel requirement, indicating this is likely a substantial contract value given the specialized nature of military fuel transportation services.
