About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is seeking to procure a tanker voyage charter service for the transportation of clean petroleum products. The procurement requires one clean, approved U.S. or foreign flag double-hull tanker equipped with an inert gas system and segregated ballast tanks, capable of carrying a minimum of 310,000 barrels of clean product (specifically JA1 fuel) within the vessel's natural segregation in designated cargo tanks with double valve isolation. The intended voyage will transport cargo from Sitra, Bahrain to Mesaieed, Qatar, with laydays commencing October 31, 2025 and canceling November 1, 2025. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 483111 (Deep Sea Freight Transportation) and PSC code V124 (Transportation: Marine Charter). The pre-solicitation notice was posted on September 24, 2025, with responses due by October 1, 2025 at 1000 Eastern Time, and interested parties should contact Jordan Morrison at the Naval Station Norfolk contracting office.
This procurement opportunity carries no set-aside designation and is unrestricted, meaning all responsible sources may submit proposals based on responses received from a recent sources sought notice. The Military Sealift Command's Deputy Associate Director of Small Business Programs has concurred with the decision to release this as an unrestricted procurement. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the notice, and both the contract award dollar amount and specific award date remain to be determined. The contract performance period is limited to one voyage between the specified ports, with the relatively tight timeframe of laydays spanning only from October 31 to November 1, 2025. The proposed solicitation number is N3220525R6052, though the final contract award and solicitation numbers are still to be determined.
