UNSPSC 71122003: Through tubing well perforation services

To create holes in the casing or liner to achieve efficient communication between the reservoir and the wellbore through tubing.

UNSPSC 71122003 Through tubing well perforation services, a Commodity code, encompasses well abandonment, plugging, and rehabilitation work that state and local governments procure for orphaned oil and gas wells, municipal water well maintenance and repairs, and specialized well services including perforation, cementing, wireline work, and site restoration. Recent state and local solicitations show heavy demand for orphan well remediation driven by federal Orphaned Wells Program funding, along with routine municipal water well construction, replacement, and rehabilitation services across water utilities, counties, and special districts.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state environmental and energy departments (Michigan, Mississippi, Texas), county water utilities (Collier County, Marion County, Hillsborough County, Seminole County, Volusia County), municipal water departments (Palm Bay, Lubbock, Santa Cruz, Watertown), regional water districts (Eastern Municipal Water District), and state natural resource agencies (Illinois Department of Natural Resources). Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy stands out as a repeat buyer, having posted four separate direct solicitations in July 2026 for orphan well plugging across Gratiot and Montcalm counties under prequalified vendor lists. Representative recent opportunities include Michigan's Orphan Well New Haven Section 3 (3 Wells) solicitation (DS7612600000000322, direct solicitation, due July 21, 2026) requiring plugging and site restoration at three gas storage wellheads with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance; Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's plugging and reclamation of seven orphaned wells (IFB 3160007967, due May 11, 2026) with federal IIJA funding; Hillsborough County's water well maintenance and repair services contract (ITB-26-00234, estimated $688,073 over two years, due June 12, 2026) covering 67 irrigation and potable wells across multiple parks; and Seminole County's wastewater pump station R&R master services agreement (CC-7100-26, due August 5, 2026) structured as a three-year initial term plus optional one-year renewals for emergency and routine repairs. Geographic activity concentrates in Michigan (orphan wells), Mississippi (orphan wells), Florida (water well maintenance and wastewater pump services), California (well maintenance for water districts), and Texas (well construction and orphan well plugging). The code shows sustained procurement activity driven by state environmental remediation programs, municipal water system replacements and rehabilitation, and federal orphan well cleanup funding under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
