About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is seeking to procure one clean, U.S. flagged, Jones Act compliant, double hull tanker for worldwide maritime operations beginning January 9, 2025. The tanker must meet specific technical requirements, including a minimum fuel capacity of 310,000 BBLS of various jet and marine fuels, be less than 20 years old, and have three cargo segregation capabilities. The vessel must achieve a minimum speed of 13 knots in moderate weather and be capable of conducting cargo operations at sea within six months of contract award. The contract structure includes one base period and two option periods (12 and 11 months respectively), with responses due by December 5, 2024, at 1300 ET. Interested vendors must submit comprehensive documentation including detailed company information, precise vessel specifications, and proposed daily rates for each contract period.
The pre-solicitation notice does not specify a specific set-aside designation, indicating the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors. While no specific award value is mentioned, the contract's complexity suggests a significant maritime transportation investment. The vessel must have maximum dimensions of 182.9m in length, 32.31m beam, 14.3m manifold height, and 48,500 metric ton deadweight tonnage (DWT). Potential contractors will need to demonstrate compliance with technical specifications, operational capabilities, and Jones Act requirements. The procurement falls under the Deep Sea Freight Transportation NAICS category (483111) and the Marine Charter Transportation PSC category (V124), signaling a specialized maritime procurement targeting commercial maritime transportation providers with specific naval support capabilities.
