UNSPSC 71121109: Extended reach well services

Performing extended reach well service through coiled tubing.

UNSPSC 71121109 Extended reach well services, a Commodity code, encompasses drilling, plugging, abandonment, and rehabilitation work on water supply wells, irrigation wells, monitoring wells, and orphaned oil and gas wells that state and local governments procure to maintain or restore water infrastructure and environmental remediation. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing well drilling and installation, well plugging and abandonment, well casing repair and video surveying, pump station maintenance, and associated infrastructure work—often bundled with site restoration, permitting, and regulatory compliance services. The issuing bodies span state environmental and energy agencies, county and municipal water utilities, parks departments, corrections facilities, and special water districts. Michigan's Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy appears frequently as a repeat buyer of orphaned well plugging services; Florida counties (Hillsborough, Sarasota, Escambia) and municipalities (City of Ocala, City of Albany, City of Reynolds) solicit well construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance work; and state agencies in Mississippi, Illinois, Texas, Colorado, and Oregon post well drilling and replacement projects. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Michigan (multiple orphaned well plugging solicitations), Florida (well maintenance and rehabilitation), and the Southeast and Upper Midwest more broadly.

Representative recent opportunities include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy prequalification RFP for oil and gas well plugging and site restoration services (RFP 7612600000025221, proposals due September 22, 2026), which awarded five contractors a combined $800,000 over one year and five months; the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board IFB for plugging, remediation, and reclamation of nine orphaned wells in Jasper and Jones Counties (IFB 3160008162, bids due December 18, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid site inspection October 22, 2026); the City of Albany, Georgia sealed bid for Well No. 21 rehabilitation (Solicitation PE64750NONST2027000000232, bids due November 16, 2026); Hillsborough County's ITB for water well maintenance and repair services on 67 wells (ITB 2600234, bids due June 12, 2026, at $688,073 for two years); and Gwinnett County's sealed bid for pump station grinder replacement and wet well modifications (BL152-26, bids due November 20, 2026). Federal funding under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Orphaned Wells Program drives significant Michigan and Mississippi activity, with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and Build America, Buy America Act compliance standard across federally funded projects.
