The United States Coast Guard Surface Force Logistics Center has a requirement for the following:
The CTR shall provide:
SOW for purchase of Shell biodegradable EAL oil for
USCGC WALNUT (WLB-225)
- Background: The most recent laboratory analysis results for the CPP system indicated severe conditions for high water content and high acid. Tech Standard 262 defines severe as follows: SEVERE Lubricant physical properties, contamination, and/or component wear is clearly serious enough to require immediate diagnostic and corrective action to prevent major long-term loss of performance or component failure in service. Increases in operating hazard are likely. Short-term loss of performance may already be present. Large-scale repairs may be required. It may be necessary to remove unit/component from service until a confirming resample is tested and diagnostics confirm that repairs are required. Currently the recommendation from the ALS laboratory is to resample and submit for analysis to verify water content and acid number and dehydrate lubricant using heated vacuum dehydrator. Resample and monitor onboard using handheld Fluidscan tester. With the current laboratory results and previous consistent failed samples SF feels that the Shell Biodegradable ISO 68 is not a sustainable hydraulic fluid for use in a warm weather environment where condensation formation is unavoidable. Immediate actions will be to utilize the filter cart and heater as well as continue to closely monitor CPP system for abnormal fluid pressures and temperatures.
- CPP system was cleaned out and diluted. WALNUT requires additional oil to conduct a full system purge and flush to remove contaminates.
- SFLC engineering recommends a system flush and purge.
- This solicitation is to provide:
06 EACH 55-gallon drums of EAL SHELL ISO 68 HYDRAULIC OIL.
- Vendor to ship palletized oil drums to:
USCGC WALNUT
211 South Ave Ste C.
Pensacola, FL 32508
- Request shipping at earliest conveyance but not to exceed 30 December 2024.
