The Naval Oceanographic Office requests responses from qualified sources capable of providing Composite Tubes meeting specifications: Background: These stainless tanks will be used to replace the anodized aluminum tanks on all NAVO vessels. The previous aluminum tanks were fabricated in house by N61 mechanical shop for the Underwater Bioluminescence Assessment Tool (UBAT) system, but they were corroded quickly by seawater. Stainless steel material is the best option to replace aluminum but our machine shop is not capable to fabricate the tank with stainless steel material. The tanks must meet specifications, which include dimensions, welding requirements, material, and leak testing. The tanks must pass our in-house pressure testing.. There are two ships that have CASREP on UBAT Aluminum tank. Another ship will soon have the CASREP on the UBAT Aluminum tank. The other remaining ships are expected to have the Aluminum tank failures soon. The fabrication of six (6) stainless steel tanks is detrimental to NAVOCEANO's mission. The UBAT system provides critical bioluminescence data to support our missions.
