UNSPSC 20142802: Oil gas separators

An oil and gas separator is a vertical or horizontal pressure vessel that producers use to separate a well stream into gaseous and liquid components. Installed either in an onshore processing station or on an offshore platform.

UNSPSC 20142802 Oil gas separators is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers equipment and related installation services for water treatment and wastewater infrastructure — including drive shaft units for water softeners, aeration systems for lift stations and wet wells, and water treatment residuals removal and disposal. The code appears to capture the mechanical and equipment components of water utility operations rather than separation equipment for oil and gas production. State and local water utilities and county governments are the primary buyers, soliciting replacements, upgrades, and maintenance support for existing treatment plant equipment. Sole source and restricted procurements dominate the recent activity, reflecting the proprietary nature of installed equipment and the compatibility requirements that lock municipalities into single suppliers for replacement parts and integrated systems.

Recent opportunities show City of Holly Hill, Florida procuring a WesTech DS43 Dual Shaft Drive replacement ($113,067 total, September 2020 adoption) through a sole source notice; Hillsborough County, Florida issuing a sole source procurement to Agora Water Solutions LLC for Wet Well Wizard aeration systems across lift stations and wet wells over five years (estimated value $5.371 million, challenges due September 22, 2026); and Clayton County and Columbia County, Georgia issuing RFPs for drinking water treatment residuals removal and disposal at two water treatment plants each (proposals due July 30, 2026). The recent activity clusters in Florida and Georgia, reflecting water utility capital needs in the Southeast. Most opportunities carry no competitive set-asides and are structured as sole source or restricted procurements because equipment is proprietary or requires compatibility with existing integrated infrastructure. Contractors pursuing this code should expect to compete primarily on proprietary systems and authorized distributor relationships rather than open competition.
