This is a Sources Sought/Request for Information only. This is NOT a Solicitation Announcement, nor is it a Request for Proposal. This request does not obligate the Government in any contract award.



The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, is conducting research to determine the market capabilities of potential contractors to provide the Brandy Station to be towed to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and back to Jacksonville, Florida.



The Brandy Station is a 174-foot vessel weighing 760 tons, needs to be towed from Freeport, Tx to Jacksonville, FL (via Matagorda, Tx and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba). Overall itinerary will include the following:



-Requires a towboat to transport the vessel from Freeport, Tx to Matagorda, Tx, including standby time of 3 days for vessel loading.

-Requires an ocean certified tug to transport the 174-foot vessel from either Freeport, Tx or Galveston, Tx to Naval Station (NS) Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, including standby time of up to 3 weeks on site. The tug may need to assist with vessel maneuvering operations during the 3-week period. In the event of an impending hurricane, efforts may be required to tow the vessel from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to a safe harbor in southern or central Florida. Post storm, the vessel would need a return tow back to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
