UNSPSC 71122601: Cased hole well completion services

Installation of production equipment in a cased hole.

UNSPSC 71122601 Cased hole well completion services, a Commodity code, encompasses plugging, site restoration, and abandonment of orphaned and producing oil and gas wells. State and local governments—primarily state natural resource and environmental departments, county authorities, and municipal water utilities—procure these services to address environmental remediation, decommissioning of defunct wellheads, and water infrastructure improvements. The work ranges from comprehensive abandonment and site reclamation of orphaned oil and gas wells under federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding to municipal potable water well construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance. Issuing bodies include state departments of environment and natural resources (Michigan, Texas, Mississippi, Illinois), county governments (Gratiot, Montcalm, Marion, Collier, Seminole counties), cities (Santa Cruz, Bend, Palm Bay, Pendleton, Austin), water districts (Eastern Municipal, Seminole County Utilities), and special-purpose authorities. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy has posted multiple direct solicitations (July 2026) for plugging and site restoration of orphaned gas storage wells in Gratiot and Montcalm counties—notably four separate direct solicitations (DS 260000000032 through 260000000035) for 38 total New Haven Energy LLC wells, all with response dates of July 21, 2026, requiring prequalification through prior RFPs and mandatory pre-bid attendance.

Recent activity concentrates in Michigan, Texas, Mississippi, Florida, California, and Georgia, with significant federal funding flowing through the Orphaned Wells Program. Michigan dominates current posting volume with back-to-back direct solicitations for New Haven orphaned gas storage well abandonment; Texas General Land Office and Railroad Commission procure high-hydrogen-sulfide well plugging and statewide well services; Mississippi Oil and Gas Board solicits orphaned well remediation; and Florida counties (Marion, Sarasota, Seminole, Collier, Hillsborough) procure potable water well construction and maintenance. Representative recent work includes the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy orphan well plugging projects (July 2026, direct solicitation, response due July 21), the Eastern Municipal Water District well maintenance and rehabilitation RFP in California (April 2026, responses due April 24), and the City of Palm Bay production wells construction IFB in Florida (April 2026, responses due April 28). The code's scope reflects substantial environmental remediation activity under federal orphaned well programs, alongside routine municipal water infrastructure procurement, with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and WIFIA/EPA loan program compliance common across federally funded opportunities.
