UNSPSC 71161201: Oilfield hot oiling service

Management of services for heating and delivering of hot oil on location.

UNSPSC 71161201 Oilfield hot oiling service is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. Of four recent opportunities tagged under this code, only one—the Eastern Municipal Water District's Digester Gas Utilization Project in Riverside County, California—addresses energy extraction and utilization infrastructure that shares thematic overlap with oilfield services; the other three solicitations (landfill gas collection systems in Georgia, park irrigation improvements in Florida, and municipal executive search services in Georgia) fall outside the code's scope or are misclassified. The EMWD procurement issued in February 2026 seeks a Design-Build-Finance-Own-Operate-Maintain partner to convert digester gas from anaerobic sludge treatment into renewable natural gas or marketable energy products across three Regional Water Reclamation Facilities, with digester gas generation projected at 149–418 cubic feet per minute depending on facility and year, but this represents wastewater treatment infrastructure rather than traditional oilfield work.

The Dalton-Whitfield Solid Waste Authority landfill gas collection and control system expansion (ITB PE75552NONST2026000000061, due May 21, 2026) is the most substantial recent posting but addresses landfill gas extraction rather than oilfield hot oiling. Georgia-licensed General Contractors with five years' minimum landfill gas experience and at least five completed similar projects are eligible; the work includes surveying, extraction well installation, approximately 18,600 linear feet of piping in multiple diameters, condensate sumps, and controls, with a 120-calendar-day substantial completion deadline and liquidated damages of $2,000–$5,000 per day. The code exhibits little demonstrated activity aligned with traditional oilfield hot oiling services in state and local procurement; buyers pursuing energy-infrastructure modernization in public utilities, wastewater treatment, and solid waste management are using this code inconsistently or the taxonomy does not capture contemporary state and local energy-transition projects accurately.
