About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC), an agency under the Department of the Navy, is seeking information on tanker vessel availability for a voyage charter operation. MSC requires a clean, double-hull tanker capable of carrying 19,000 barrels of JP8 fuel with specific vessel requirements including a maximum length of 100 meters, maximum deadweight of 3,000 MT, and an age less than 20 years. Interested parties must respond with detailed vessel information including the vessel name, Q88 rating, flag, speed, range, cargo capacity, charter rate, and demurrage by 10:00 AM Eastern Time on January 21, 2026, via email to Matthew Price. The submission must also include company information such as business size, contact details, and unique entity identifier. While evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the sources sought notice, the agency is gathering market information to assess vessel availability and charter terms before issuing a formal solicitation.
This procurement is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 483111 (Deep Sea Freight Transportation), with a size standard of 1,050 employees; however, large businesses are encouraged to indicate potential subcontracting opportunities. The intended voyage involves loading JP8 fuel at Ulsan, Korea and discharging at Gunsan, Korea during a one-day period from March 9-10, 2026. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, as this is a sources sought notice designed to gather market information rather than a formal solicitation with predetermined contract values. The notice does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors. This pre-solicitation notice represents the initial phase of the procurement process, with a formal solicitation expected to follow based on responses received by the January 21, 2026 deadline.
