UNSPSC 71122304: Subsea well intervention or completion services

Services to convey mechanical tools or logging equipment to perform operational objectives downhole or to perform activities in the final stages of well construction to prepare a well for production.

UNSPSC 71122304 Subsea well intervention or completion services (Commodity) is a misclassified code in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span irrigation system improvements, orphan oil and gas well plugging, municipal water well construction and rehabilitation, wastewater pump station repair, and demolition — none of which fall within subsea or marine well work. State and local governments do not appear to be sourcing subsea well intervention services at all under this code; instead, the code is being applied to onshore water infrastructure, energy remediation, and utility maintenance work that belongs in terrestrial well drilling, pump service, and environmental remediation categories.

The issuing bodies across recent postings include state environmental and energy departments (Michigan EGLE, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board, Illinois Department of Corrections and Natural Resources), counties (Seminole, Escambia, Sarasota, Hillsborough, Gwinnett), cities (Albany, Ocala, Wrens, Reynolds, Pascagoula, Austin, Bend, Lubbock), water districts, and parks departments — primarily in Michigan, Mississippi, Florida, Georgia, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include Michigan EGLE's direct solicitations for orphan well plugging at New Haven gas storage wells in Gratiot County (July 2026, prequalified vendor pool only); Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's sealed bid for plugging and remediation of nine orphaned oil and gas wells across Jasper and Jones Counties (IFB, due December 18, 2026); City of Albany's sealed bid for Well No. 21 rehabilitation (due November 16, 2026); Hillsborough County's ITB for water well maintenance and repair across 67 county wells at an estimated $688,073 over two years (due June 12, 2026); and Seminole County's invitation for wastewater pump station repair and refurbishment on a multi-year work-order basis (June 17, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not align with its nominal subsea scope.
