UNSPSC 71122708: Oilfield pump mechanic services

Repairs services to the pumping machinery.

UNSPSC 71122708 Oilfield pump mechanic services is a Commodity code that encompasses well drilling, plugging, rehabilitation, and abandonment services for oil, gas, and water wells—not the narrow pump-repair work the code name alone suggests. State and local governments buy under this code when they solicit orphan oil and gas well plugging funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, water well construction and maintenance for municipal supply systems, agricultural irrigation infrastructure, and wastewater pump station repair and maintenance. Issuing bodies include state environmental and energy departments (Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy; Mississippi Oil and Gas Board; Illinois Department of Natural Resources), county governments (Seminole County, Sarasota County, Gwinnett County), cities (Albany, Reynolds, Pascagoula, Lubbock, Austin), water utilities, parks departments, and special districts. Michigan and Mississippi have driven recent activity through federally funded orphan well plugging programs; Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Oregon show concentrated municipal water infrastructure activity. Well maintenance and repair contracts recur across county utility departments managing distributed well portfolios.

Representative recent solicitations include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's prequalification and direct solicitations for orphan well plugging across multiple packages in Gratiot County (proposals due July 21, 2026, RFQ/Direct Solicitation format, federally funded, restricted to prequalified vendors); the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's IFB for plugging and remediation of nine orphaned wells in Jasper and Jones Counties (bids due December 18, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid site inspection October 22, 2026); Hillsborough County's ITB for water well maintenance and repair services at 67 irrigation and potable wells across county parks ($688,073 estimated value over two years); the City of Albany's sealed-bid solicitation for Well No. 21 rehabilitation (bids due November 16, 2026); and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources' small-business set-aside IFB for Union County State Fish and Wildlife Area well installation and pump system (bids due July 9, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid June 25, 2026). Geographically, Michigan and Mississippi dominate orphan-well activity through Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act programs, while Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Oregon show concentrated municipal water-supply well construction and rehabilitation. The code attracts Davis-Bacon wage-scale work on federal projects and prevailing-wage compliance on state revolving fund loans.
