UNSPSC 71121639: Downhole drilling tubular rental service

Rental of tubular goods such as casing or tubing or drill pipe

UNSPSC 71121639 Downhole drilling tubular rental service, a Commodity code, does not align with state and local procurement activity in the provided opportunities. The recent solicitations tagged to this code span irrigation system installation (City of DeBary), orphan well plugging and remediation (Michigan EGLE, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board), water well construction and maintenance (multiple municipalities and counties), wastewater pump station repair (Gwinnett County, Seminole County), and building demolition (City of Ocala)—none of which involve the rental of downhole drilling tubulars. The code's nominal scope appears orthogonal to the work actually being bought, suggesting either a taxonomy mismatch in the source data or that the Commodity code does not reflect current state and local procurement patterns.

Activity is concentrated among state environmental agencies (Michigan EGLE conducting multiple orphan well solicitations; Mississippi Oil and Gas Board; Illinois Department of Corrections), county and municipal utilities departments (Hillsborough County, Seminole County, Gwinnett County, Sarasota County), and cities managing water and wastewater infrastructure (DeBary, Albany, Ocala, Reynolds, Lubbock, Austin). Recent opportunities span Florida, Michigan, Mississippi, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's prequalification RFP for orphan well plugging and remediation services (RFP 7612600000025222, proposals due September 22, 2026, with $800,000 in aggregate awards to five prequalified contractors), the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's orphan well plugging IFB for nine wells across Jasper and Jones Counties (IFB 3160008162, bids due December 18, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid inspection October 22, 2026), and Hillsborough County's water well maintenance and repair services ITB for 67 irrigation and potable water wells ($688,073 estimated over two years, bids due June 12, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity; the solicitations reflect infrastructure maintenance, emergency remediation, and capital improvements in water and wastewater utilities rather than drilling tubular leasing.
