Specifics: The PNSY shall provide 2000 gallons of new petroleum based 2075TH oil per MIL-H-17672 The contractor shall provide monitored flushing equipment, provisioning new oil and final disposal of any used oil. After initial system fill, and upon completion of initial hydraulic system operation and venting by PNSY, a supplement “final fill” of ships oil storage tanks is expected to be required by the contractor. Place of performance will be at PNSY Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Kittery Maine. Oil Systems Flushing: The contractor shall provide hydraulic oil flushing unit and necessary oil storage tanks consisting of a pier side comprehensive flush rig pump, filter and monitoring equipment. Such equipment will receive 2075TH oil per MIL-H-17672 oil from the Shipyard, circulate the flushing oil through the Ships Service Hydraulic system, filter the oil continuously and blow down the system after flushing. The flushing unit must be capable of flushing in accordance with SUBMEPP TP 55621-2-7542 LAT, maintaining a Reynolds Number turbulent flow value of approx. 4000. To achieve this flow the flush unit must be capable of pumping 2075TH oil per MIL-H-17672 at a maximum of 60 gallons per minute (GPM) and 170 +/- 10 deg F as measured at the flushing loop return line. Pre-use testing and inspection of each flushing loop, including the flushing units, is required in accordance with Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Work and Test Manual, Chapter 3.8, for Category II Hazardous Evolutions. This pre-use testing consists of a hydrostatic test to 110 percent of the temporary system relief valve setting or 117 percent of nominal temporary system pressure to verify flushing equipment integrity. The entire temporary system and ships piping within the flushing boundary must be pneumatically tested for tightness to 75 psig or system operation pressure prior to use. The Shipyard shall tie in or connect flushing hoses to the ship’s tie in points designated by the Shipyard. The flush supply and discharge lines will be provided by the Shipyard to the contractor pier side flush rig. An additional oil sample will be drawn from the ship’s tie in end of each transfer hose and analyzed by the Shipyard chemistry laboratory per the technical requirements of Process Instruction 516-905-229 LAT prior to each tie in to the ship’s system. The Shipyard is responsible for operation and manipulation of all shipboard equipment. The Shipyard is responsible for determination of flushing loops and flush boundaries, as well as flush duration.

The allowable water contamination limit for 2075TH is 0.03 percent (300 ppm) maximum. Note that all oil shall be new oil. Reprocessed, reclaimed, or recycled oil is not acceptable for submarine use. Oil samples will be drawn from each portable tank, drum, or truck after arrival at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. If drum contents are transferred to a common storage tank prior to transfer to the ship, a single oil sample from the common storage tank is acceptable in lieu of individual drum samples. Final verification and acceptance of delivered oil will be based upon satisfactory oil analysis by the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard chemistry laboratory. Movement of each portable tank or truck after arrival is the responsibility of the Shipyard.
