TANKER (LNG) VOYAGE CHARTER

The Military Sealift Command is seeking information about the price and availability of U.S. flag vessels capable of carrying a minimum of 50,000 MMBTU of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to fill a storage requirement at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The vessel is required for a charter with specific requirements, including a maximum displacement of 41,000 metric tons, a maximum length overall of 256 meters, and a maximum laden draft of 10 meters. The vessel must also have a gross volumetric capacity of between 4,000 to 15,000 cubic meters and meet certain LNG unloading requirements. Some key points to consider: • The vessel must be capable of carrying a minimum of 50,000 MMBTU of LNG. • The vessel must meet specific size and capacity requirements. • The vessel must be able to unload LNG at a rate of 250 cubic meters per hour. • The vessel must have a flanged connection with a powered emergency release coupling to a 6” LNG hose. • The terminal has a gas chromatograph to verify the delivered LNG composition and HHV.
