The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is seeking a 60-day time charter for one clean, double-hull tanker vessel through Request for Proposal N3220526R6020, issued under FAR 13.5 Simplified Procedures for commercial products and services. The vessel must be capable of carrying a minimum of 240,000 barrels of clean product (JP5 and JA1), with specific technical specifications including an Inert Gas System, Segregated Ballast Tanks, a maximum length of 200 meters, a maximum deadweight of 50,000 MT, and the ability to maintain 13 knots in moderate weather conditions. Offerors must submit detailed documentation including Q-88 reports, safety certificates, vessel itineraries, and cargo tank compatibility information. Evaluation will be based on charter hire rates, fuel costs, and overall price using a specific fuel consumption calculation methodology, with MGO/MDO fuel priced at $1,188.68 per metric ton. Proposals are due on November 13, 2025, at 1000 Eastern Time.
This procurement contains no set-aside designations, and no incumbent contractor is identified in the available documentation. The charter period is approximately 60 days with laydays scheduled for December 8-9, 2025, and the vessel will be assigned to deliver to DFSP Hakozaki, Japan, operating in the Western Pacific and Sea of Japan regions. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price agreement. The place of performance is Japan, and offerors should note that the Red Sea, Bab al-Mandeb Straits, and Gulf of Aden are designated imminent danger pay locations along the anticipated transit route. While a specific award value is not disclosed in the solicitation notice, the fuel consumption spreadsheet and pricing structure provide the framework for cost evaluation and budget determination.
