UNSPSC 71131023: High pressure fracturing proppant service

A proppant is a solid material, typically sand, treated sand or man-made ceramic materials, designed to keep an induced hydraulic fracture open, during or following a fracturing treatment. It is added to a fracking fluid which may vary in composition depending on the type of fracturing used, and can be gel, foam or slickwater-based

UNSPSC 71131023 High pressure fracturing proppant service is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities tagged under this code—a Pinellas County Utilities request for mixer parts and accessories (ITQ 26-0647), Klein ISD's Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics RFP, and Santa Clara County's public health lab information management system RFI—bear no relationship to high-pressure fracturing proppants or related oilfield services. The code appears to be misapplied across these diverse municipal, school district, and county health-system procurements, suggesting either a cataloging error in the underlying data or systematic mistagging of unrelated commodities to this code.

No state or local government solicitations for high-pressure fracturing proppants, fracturing services, or oilfield completion materials appear in the recent-opportunity block. Business development teams should treat this code as dormant for state and local procurement purposes and focus resources on jurisdictions and service lines with active, correctly tagged solicitation activity.
