About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command Norfolk Strategic Sealift Program Support Office is soliciting proposals for a commercial tanker voyage charter to transport clean petroleum products. The procurement seeks one clean, double-hull tanker vessel capable of carrying a minimum of 310,000 barrels of clean product, with specific requirements including a maximum length of 200 meters, maximum deadweight of 80,000 MT, and must be equipped with an Inert Gas System and Segregated Ballast Tanks. The vessel will transport cargo from Sitra, Bahrain to Mesaieed, Qatar with laydays scheduled for October 4-5, 2025. The solicitation will be evaluated using a lowest-price, technically acceptable approach, considering technical compliance, vessel characteristics such as age and cargo capacity, previous cargo types, and pricing. Proposals must be submitted by September 5, 2025 at 1100 Eastern Time, and the procurement is being conducted under FAR 13.5 Simplified Procedures for commercial products and services with a firm-fixed-price contract anticipated.
This solicitation does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to full and open competition. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the documentation. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed, the procurement involves chartering a single large-capacity tanker vessel for a short-term voyage between Middle Eastern ports. The charter period is limited to the laydays of October 4-5, 2025, indicating a brief operational timeline for cargo loading and transportation. The place of performance spans from Sitra, Bahrain as the loading port to Mesaieed, Qatar as the discharge port, with the solicitation noting specific restrictions and reporting requirements for vessel operations in regions like the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandeb Straits due to imminent danger pay considerations.
