UNSPSC 71121102: Cable installation through coiled tubing services

Installation of cable through coiled tubing.

UNSPSC 71121102 Cable installation through coiled tubing services is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify well-plugging, abandonment, and site-restoration services for orphaned or decommissioned oil, gas, and water wells. Recent solicitations show this code encompasses comprehensive downhole work including wireline services, tubing and casing installation, cementing, drilling fluid management, and mechanical abandonment operations performed through coiled tubing or conventional rig configurations. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy dominates recent activity, posting four direct solicitations in July 2026 for orphan gas storage well plugging across Gratiot and Montcalm counties—work spanning 26 total wells with mandatory prequalification, Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance, and best-value award criteria emphasizing key personnel, business-owned equipment, technical experience, and vendor responsiveness over price alone. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state environmental and energy departments (Michigan EGLE, Texas General Land Office, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board, Illinois Department of Natural Resources), counties and municipalities managing water infrastructure, and special authorities overseeing public water supplies and utility systems. The code sees activity across multiple states—Michigan, Texas, Mississippi, Florida, California, Oregon, and others—with particular concentration in the Great Lakes region and Oil Belt states where orphan well remediation programs are active under federal IIJA funding.

Representative recent opportunities include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy direct solicitations DS 260000000032, DS 260000000033, DS 260000000034, and DS 260000000035 (all posted July 16, 2026, proposals due July 21, 2026) for plugging and site restoration of 26 orphan gas storage wells in Gratiot County operated by New Haven Energy LLC, requiring prequalification through five prior RFPs, mandatory pre-proposal attendance on July 9, 2026, unit pricing on 68 line items, and project timelines segmented into Site Prep, Mobilization/Demobilization, Plugging, and Site Restoration phases; the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's IFB 3160007881 (posted March 6, 2026, bids due April 13, 2026) for plugging, remediation, and reclamation of seven orphaned wells across multiple Mississippi counties under IIJA Formula grant funding; and the Texas General Land Office RFQ 455-26-1020 (posted May 12, 2026) for high hydrogen sulfide well pad services statewide. Pricing in Michigan solicitations follows strict unit-rate schedules with Davis-Bacon wage rates ($39.57–$41.28 per hour plus $25.25–$40.00 fringe depending on classification), firm pricing for project duration, and technical scoring weighted equally across four dimensions with 80-point minimum thresholds for award consideration.
