COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 25,2000 PSA#2544Commanding Officer, NAVFACCO, Bldg 41 Code 80, NAVFACENGCOMDET-SLC,
4111 San Pedro Street, Port Hueneme, CA 93043-4410 A -- FUEL QUALITY SOL N47408-00-R-8882 DUE 032000 POC Ms. Naomi
Melendez, 805-982-5095, fax 805-982-3015,
melendeznm@slc.navfac.navy.mil FUEL QUALITY, Sources Sought. The Naval
Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) is seeking sources of
technologies suitable for upgrading "out of range" indigenous fuels of
suspicious quality using filtration or other methods to a "usable"
condition. The fuel quality will be assessed using handheld instruments
and fuel quality test kits as well as smaller variants of typical fuel
quality testing mobile stations. It is envisioned that several
properties of diesel fuel (also kerosene's and gasoline's) including;
density, viscosity, total aromatics, cretonne index, octane index,
cloud point, moisture, particulate and net heat of combustion which can
be assessed with these emerging technologies may become "out of range"
for expectable usage of the fuel in Military vehicles. Other fuel
qualities which may become "out of range" are of interest such as API
Gravity, Alcohol, Cetane Index, Cetane Number, Cloud Point, Copper
Corrosion, Oxidation Stability, Distillation, Flash Point, Lead,
Sulfur, Octane, Total Oxygen, Vapor Pressure, Saybolt Color, Viscosity,
Water and Sediment, Water Tolerance.Although technology focus is
primarily for diesel fuel, reasonable methods to place fuel within
usable range for kerosenes and gasoline are of interest. All
information shall be forwarded at no cost to the Government by 20 March
2000. This notice is not a request for proposals and no contract will
be awarded by this office solely on the basis of the responses hereto,
or any follow-up information subsequently solicited. Posted 02/23/00
