NASA Shared Services Center is seeking information from industry sources capable of providing ASME-certified high-pressure storage vessels designed for hydrogen, methane, and nitrogen storage at up to 15,000 PSIG, with a total capacity of approximately 1,250 cubic feet. Vendors are invited to propose either an assembly pack configuration of four vertically stacked vessels mounted on an I-beam support structure with 1-inch medium pressure end connections and integrated lifting points, or an individual vessel option consisting of a single 15,000 PSIG ASME-certified tube with a 6-inch R-Con connection. All vessels must be manufactured from SA372 Grade J or an approved commercial equivalent and meet ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII standards, including full traceability of materials, hydrostatic and non-destructive examination test reports, and an ASME code stamp. Surface preparation must comply with RPTSD-8070-0001 Level 400A, and a corrosion-resistant coating suitable for the Gulf Coast marine environment is required. Respondents must submit a company profile including their UEI and socioeconomic status, technical documentation proving capability to meet the pressure and material specifications, past performance references for at least three similar high-pressure gas storage projects delivered within the last five years—including government contracts with contract numbers—estimated delivery timelines to NASA’s Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, and feedback on the draft Statement of Work to identify any unclear, overly restrictive, or non-commercial requirements. Offerors are encouraged to highlight missing industry-standard safety practices such as helium leak testing and fatigue analysis and to define their commercial warranty terms, including any extended warranty for coatings. This is a sources sought notice with no solicitation or contract awarded as a result; responses are due by May 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT and must be submitted electronically to Caitlin Angstadt at caitlin.e.angstadt@nasa.gov. No pricing, line items, contract value, payment terms, or formal evaluation criteria are included, as this is purely a market research effort to assess industry capability and inform potential future procurement actions.

1. Introduction and Purpose


The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/ NASA Shared Service Center (NSSC) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources for ASME certified high-pressure storage vessels suitable for hydrogen, methane, and nitrogen storage. This is a Sources Sought only. NASA is seeking capability statements from all interested parties, including all socioeconomic categories of Small Businesses, for the purposes of determining the appropriate level of competition and/or small business subcontracting goals.


2. Draft Technical Specifications


Interested firms must demonstrate the capability to meet or exceed the requirements described in the Statement of Work (SOW), particularly the ability to provide two vessels at 625 cubic feet each for a total of 1,250 cubic feet. Respondents may provide information on one or both of the following configurations:


  • Assembly Pack Configuration: Four (4) vessels arranged vertically in an I-beam or equivalent support structure with 1-inch medium pressure end connections and integrated lifting points.
  • Individual Vessel Option: A single 15,000 PSIG ASME certified pressure vessel tube with a 6-inch R-Con connection

See Attachment 01 – Draft Statement of Work


3. Submission Requirements


Firms having the capabilities necessary to meet or exceed the stated requirements are invited to submit appropriate documentation, literature, brochures, and references. Please include:


  1. Vendors having the necessary capabilities are invited to submit documentation, literature, and references. Please include the following in your response:
  2. Company Profile: Name, address, UEI number, and socio-economic status.
  3. Technical Expertise: Documentation of the ability to manufacture to 15,000 PSIG ASME standards using SA372 Grade J material or a commercial equivalent.
  4. Past Performance: Brief summaries of at least three (3) similar projects involving high-pressure gas storage delivered within the last 5 years. Include contract numbers for any government deliveries.
  5. Lead Time: Estimated delivery schedule to NASA – John C. Stennis Space Center, MS 39529.
  6. Industry Feedback & Commercial Practices:
    • SOW Refinement: Identify any specifications that appear unclear, overly restrictive, or inconsistent with commercial manufacturing.
    • Missing Practices: Identify standard commercial practices (e.g., Helium leak testing, fatigue analysis) or safety features missing from the SOW.
    • Warranty Standards: Define your standard commercial warranty for these vessels and indicate if a separate warranty is offered for coatings in high-corrosion environments

4. Response Instructions


Submit all required documentation electronically to the Point of Contact listed below by the specified deadline:


Deadline for Submission: 5/20/2026 at 2:00 PM CDT
