About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC), an agency under the Department of the Navy, is soliciting proposals for a 60-day tanker time charter service. The procurement seeks one clean, approved double-hull tanker vessel—either U.S. or foreign flagged—equipped with an inert gas system and segregated ballast tanks capable of carrying a minimum of 270,000 barrels of clean product within designated cargo tanks with double valve isolation. Key vessel requirements include the ability to safely transport approved clean products and maintain proper cargo segregation throughout the voyage. The solicitation is unrestricted, allowing all responsible sources to compete, based on the Contracting Officer's market research and concurrence from the Director of Small Business Programs. Interested parties must submit their proposals by Thursday, April 2, 2026, with inquiries directed to Jordan Morrison (jordan.a.morrison5.civ@us.navy.mil; 564-230-3633) or Michelle James (michelle.d.james7.civ@us.navy.mil; 564-230-3323) at Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, Virginia.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and is available to all eligible contractors without preferential provisions. The vessel will be loaded in the Mediterranean Sea with intended delivery in St. Theodore, Greece, and is scheduled for redelivery in the South China Sea with intended return to Singapore, with laydays commencing April 30, 2026 and canceling May 1, 2026. The contract performance period is approximately 60 days from commencement. The contract award amount and specific award date remain to be determined (TBD), as the solicitation is still in pre-solicitation status with the proposed solicitation number N3220526R6067. No current contractor or incumbent has been identified at this stage of the procurement process.
