USCGC FORWARD- HOT OIL FLUSH

The U.S. Coast Guard requires contractor services for a Hot Oil Flush on the #2 Main Diesel Engine (MDE) of the USCGC FORWARD (WMEC-911) between September 15, 2026, and September 30, 2026. This critical maintenance, following a center section overhaul, aims to purge contaminants from the ALCO 251 engine's lube oil system. The contractor must provide all personnel, equipment, and materials for mobilization, system preparation, servicing of full flow relief valves (removal, cleaning, inspection, pressure setting, reinstallation), the hot oil flush itself until cleanliness standards are met, system restoration, and demobilization. The work will take place at the U.S. Coast Guard Base Portsmouth, VA. Contractors need qualified technicians with ALCO 251 expertise, and documented proof of a successful hot oil flush on an ALCO 251 series engine within the last five years.
