The U.S. Navy’s Military Sealift Command (MSC) Norfolk has awarded a contract worth USD 6.6 million to Vigor Marine LLC, seated in Portland, Ore, for regular overhaul and dry docking availability of fleet replenishment oiler USNS Yukon (T-AO 202).
The overhaul, which is expected to last until April, will include port main engine, gyro replacement, number four ship’s service diesel generator, docking and undocking and underwater hull cleaning and painting.
If all options are exercised, the total amount of the contract could be raised for additional USD 1.4 million, bringing the total value to USD 8 million.
