UNSPSC 71122708: Oilfield pump mechanic services

Repairs services to the pumping machinery.

UNSPSC 71122708 Oilfield pump mechanic services is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure to plug and abandon orphaned oil and gas wells, install deep water supply pumps at municipal facilities, and perform well maintenance and rehabilitation for water production and storage systems. The work spans well drilling, pump installation, mechanical rehabilitation, site remediation, and equipment replacement across water authorities, state environmental agencies, and municipal utilities. Issuing bodies include state departments of natural resources and environmental protection, county and municipal water utilities, special districts, and industrial development authorities. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy has been the most active recent buyer, issuing four direct solicitations in July 2026 for orphan well plugging across Gratiot and Montcalm Counties; Seminole County, Florida and Hillsborough County, Florida are also active solicitors for wastewater pump station maintenance and water well services on a master-service-agreement basis. Representative recent work includes Michigan's orphan well projects requiring plugging, drilling, and site restoration at 3 to 14 wells per solicitation with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance and best-value award criteria; Seminole County's wastewater pump station repair and refurbishment master service contract for a three-year initial term with two renewal years; and Hillsborough County's two-year water well maintenance and repair contract estimated at $688,073 covering 67 irrigation and potable wells across multiple parks and facilities.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Michigan (four July 2026 orphan well direct solicitations), Florida (Seminole County, Hillsborough County, and Sarasota County well abandonment and pump station work), and Mississippi (state oil and gas board well plugging procurements funded by federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act grants). Secondary activity appears in California (Eastern Municipal Water District well maintenance RFP), Texas (Railroad Commission well plugging statewide RFQ, City of Austin pool well maintenance IFB), Illinois (Union County well and pump system), Georgia (McIntosh County deep well installation, City of Helen monitoring well replacement), Oregon (City of Pendleton Byers Well improvement), and Wisconsin (City of Watertown well rehabilitation). Many solicitations employ prequalification screening, mandatory pre-bid meetings, and design-build or design-bid-build structures with 60- to 150-day completion timelines, 51–100 percent self-performance requirements, Davis-Bacon or prevailing wage compliance, and performance/payment bonds. Evaluation commonly weighs technical qualifications (key personnel, equipment ownership, experience) at 25–40 percent and cost at 20–40 percent, with best-value selection predominant over lowest-price award in higher-complexity infrastructure projects.
