About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy's Military Sealift Command is seeking to charter a tanker vessel for a single voyage transportation mission. The pre-solicitation notice outlines requirements for a clean, double-hull tanker capable of carrying a minimum of 12,000 barrels of clean product (specifically JPTS) with specific technical specifications including an inert gas system or nitrogen generation system. The vessel must have segregated ballast tanks and double-valve isolation in designated cargo tanks. The proposed transportation route involves loading at Killingholme, U.K. (SKJ Terminal) and discharging at Akrotiri, Cyprus (RAF Akrotiri Terminal). The solicitation response deadline is Thursday, April 10, 2025, at 10:00 Eastern Time, with contract point of contact Brandon Page available for inquiries. The procurement will be conducted under the Deep Sea Freight Transportation NAICS category and Marine Charter product service code.
The contract is currently designated as unrestricted, meaning all responsible sources may submit proposals for consideration. The planned laydays for the voyage are set to commence on April 29, 2025, and cancel on May 7, 2025, with a performance period of one complete voyage. While specific award dollar amounts are currently to be determined (TBD), the solicitation indicates flexibility in vessel selection between U.S. and foreign-flagged tankers. The Military Sealift Command has conducted market research to support the unrestricted procurement approach, with concurrence from the MSC Deputy Associate Director of Small Business Programs. No specific set-aside status is applied, and the final contract award date remains to be announced, signaling an open and competitive procurement process for potential maritime transportation providers.
