About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is seeking to charter a U.S. flagged double hull medium range tanker for a one-year period from 11 June 2025 to 10 June 2026. The tanker must be capable of carrying a minimum of 300,000 barrels of clean petroleum products, including JP5, JAA, or F76 fuel types. Specific vessel requirements include being 20 years old or less, under 190 meters long, under 50,000 metric tons deadweight, with at least 3 cargo tank segregations, and a boom/crane for cargo hose handling. Interested parties must submit detailed company information, vessel specifications, daily fuel consumption rates, charter rates, and optional features by 1:30 PM Eastern Time on 28 April 2025. Responses should be emailed directly to specified Navy contracting personnel, with the operating area defined as the Pacific Ocean, with delivery and redelivery near Onsan, Korea.
The solicitation does not have a specific small business set-aside, though the small business size standard is defined as 1,050 employees under NAICS code 483111. Large businesses are encouraged to detail potential subcontracting opportunities. The vessel must maintain a minimum speed of 13 knots and be capable of conducting underway consolidation operations. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the contract is structured as a time charter for a single marine vessel to support military logistics operations in the Western Pacific region. The one-year charter period represents a specific, time-limited procurement strategy for marine transportation services, with precise operational requirements designed to meet the Military Sealift Command's strategic maritime fuel transportation needs.
