Why bother hiding it ? its unlikely to work and does it have to be very close anyway ?

Cant you just deploy a modified fleet oiler to within SSK range of the operating area ? You might have to provide escorts for the oiler.

Will the fact you have an oiler in the region tell them much ? Ether you have lots of them spread around the world or you are so small a navy that you will not be able to afford the special tender/good SSKs anyway ?

Personally I'd go with a stores ship, but otherwise I agree with you.
If you insist on hiding it I'd just do it out of sight of land and away from major shipping routes. The ocean is a very big place and as countless searches throughout history has shown it can be surprisingly hard to find anything that isn't transmitting.

Or do like Germany did during WW2, set up agreements with Neutral Nations to have your Submarines replenish at ports with another "Neutrally Flagged" vessel...
