$42.8 million USNS Henry J. Kaiser overhaul and drydocking contract
Military Sealift Command awarded Vigor Marine a $42.8 million contract for the regular overhaul and drydocking of the replenishment oiler USNS Henry J. Kaiser in Portland, Oregon.
The firm-fixed-price award covers a 120-calendar-day shipyard availability beginning December 15, 2026. A base work package is funded, and four unexercised options could raise the cumulative contract value to $45.8 million. The award is complete even though shipyard performance begins later; no claim is made that the overhaul itself has already occurred.
