UNSPSC 71121623: Well drilling pipe storage

Storing of drilling pipe.

UNSPSC 71121623 Well drilling pipe storage, a Commodity code, does not align with the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this designation. Recent solicitations tagged to this code cover well drilling, abandonment, plugging, rehabilitation, maintenance, irrigation system installation, and wastewater pump station repair — work that spans multiple UNSPSC families and does not center on pipe storage. The code appears to be a mislabeling artifact in state and local procurement systems rather than a live procurement category.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy; the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board; city and county water utilities; parks departments; and state correctional facilities. Geographic activity concentrates in Michigan (orphan well plugging under Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding), Mississippi (orphaned oil and gas well remediation), and Florida (irrigation, well rehabilitation, and wastewater infrastructure). Representative recent opportunities include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy prequalification RFP for oil and gas well plugging, drilling, and site restoration services (RFP 7612600000025222, proposals due September 22, 2026); the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board IFB for plugging and remediation of nine orphaned wells in Jasper and Jones Counties (IFB 3160008162, bids due December 18, 2026); the City of Albany IFB for rehabilitation and upgrade of Well No. 21 (Bid Ref. 27-032, bids due November 16, 2026); and Hillsborough County's sole-source procurement for Wet Well Wizard aeration systems installation and maintenance at lift stations (estimated $5.371 million over five years). The code shows no relevant recent activity; pursue only if your firm works in orphaned well remediation, water well drilling and rehabilitation, or wastewater infrastructure repair and has capacity to track state environmental and water utility department RFPs and IFBs directly rather than relying on UNSPSC classification.
