UNSPSC 20122209: Formation shut in tools

UNSPSC 20122209 Formation shut in tools is a Commodity code that covers specialized equipment and hardware used to seal and control wellbores in oil, gas, and water resource extraction and management. State and local governments purchase formation shut-in tools primarily through water and natural-resource management authorities undertaking well rehabilitation, improvement, and infrastructure upgrades. The actual procurement activity reflects the technical scope of well conditioning, integrity assurance, and operational control — equipment and services integral to bringing dormant or deteriorated wells back into reliable service rather than specialized drilling consumables alone.

Collier County, Florida, posted a prominent recent opportunity under this code: Bid No. 25-8418 for NRO Wells 118N and 120N Improvements (IFB, sealed bids due October 8, 2025, anticipated budget $2,900,000.00). The solicitation encompasses installation of pumps, motors, piping, electrical and instrumentation systems, controls, and well conditioning services at two county water wells. The project requires substantial completion within 365 calendar days of Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $1,201 per calendar day for delay. A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting was held September 10, 2025, at the Collier County Procurement Services Conference Room. Prospective bidders must register on the county's OpenGov procurement portal to access complete documentation. The county requires bidders to carry $1,000,000 in commercial general liability coverage, provide performance and payment bonds, and comply with E-Verify immigration verification and county and state safety standards including OSHA, DOT, and EPA regulations.
