UNSPSC 71122711: Well workover service

Service for repair or stimulation of an existing production well for the purpose of restoring, prolonging or enhancing the production of hydrocarbons.

UNSPSC 71122711 Well workover service is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure comprehensive well abandonment, plugging, rehabilitation, and restoration services across municipal water systems, irrigation districts, environmental remediation programs, and orphaned oil and gas well remediation initiatives. Recent solicitations show substantial demand for orphan well plugging work, municipal well rehabilitation, pump system upgrades, and aquifer storage and recovery conversions. State environmental agencies and county utilities departments are the primary issuing bodies, with water treatment plant operators, municipal water utilities, and environmental reclamation authorities also active in this space. Work being solicited includes complete well abandonment with site restoration compliance (Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy orphan well plugging at three Gratiot County locations due July 21, 2026, under direct solicitation); municipal well rehabilitation including mechanical brushing, chemical treatment, and video logging (Eastern Municipal Water District well maintenance and rehabilitation services, California); exploratory monitor well construction and modification (Sarasota County exploratory well at Dona Bay due July 29, 2026, IFB format); potable water well construction with testing and certification (Marion County four-well project due May 21, 2026); and design engineering for ASR well conversion (City of Santa Cruz Beltz 9 aquifer storage and recovery retrofit design services).

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Michigan, California, Mississippi, Texas, and Georgia, with the densest recent cluster in Michigan (four orphan well plugging solicitations from EGLE covering 38 total wells in Gratiot and Montcalm counties, all due July 21, 2026). Issuing bodies span state environmental departments (Michigan EGLE, Texas General Land Office, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board, Illinois Department of Natural Resources), county utilities and water authorities (Hillsborough County, Marion County, Collier County, Palm Bay, Seminole County, Volusia County, Eastern Municipal Water District), municipal water utilities (Lubbock, Bend, Sarasota, Santa Cruz), and special-purpose districts. Representative recent opportunities include the Michigan orphan well projects (prequalified contractors only, 68-line-item unit pricing, Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, technical scoring on key personnel and equipment qualification), Hillsborough County water well maintenance and repair ($688,073 estimated two-year contract, ITB 26-00234, due June 12, 2026, 67 wells across multiple parks), and San Bernardino County on-call well and pump maintenance ($2.8 million maximum over five years, RFQ due August 31, 2026, covering 32 production wells and 28 booster pump stations). Most recent opportunities require active California or state contractor licensing, five or more years of documented experience, Davis-Bacon or prevailing wage compliance where federally funded, and comprehensive insurance including pollution liability where applicable.
