Description

Read full description

Canada, as represented by the Department of National Defence (DND), with the assistance of Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC), has issued this RFI for the Maritime Forces Atlantic (MARLANT) Fuel Barge requirement (MFB). This RFI is seeking Industry feedback regarding the procurement of a Class approved double-hulled steel tank barge for the fueling of the Canadian Naval Fleet Atlantic (CANFLTANT).Procuring a steel fuel barge for CANFLTLANT will increase operational readiness, allowing for ships to be deployed on short notice. The fuel barge will also decrease fuel wastage during dry dockings as ships can be defueled efficiently. Fuel can then be safely stored and re-purposed for other CANFLTLANT ships. The barge will not be self-propelled. The barge will be transported and positioned by the existing King’s Harbour Master (KHM) tug fleet, including the new Naval Large Tugs (NLT). It would be crewed for day-use (no overnight accommodation) by KHM civilian staff, and the construction and operation would be to commercial Class rules. It is expected that the barge will be berthed at existing jetties.
