UNSPSC 71161314: Oil well project management service

Oil well Project Management service involves planning, organizing and managing project activities required to complete an individual project with predetermined parameters.

UNSPSC 71161314 Oil well project management service is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity names project management and engineering oversight for energy extraction and recovery infrastructure—primarily landfill gas collection systems and digester gas utilization projects rather than traditional oil well development. State and local governments are using this code to solicit design, construction management, and long-term operational oversight for anaerobic gas recovery systems at solid waste facilities and water reclamation plants. Issuing bodies include special-purpose districts (solid waste authorities, water reclamation districts) and municipal governments. The scope of work encompasses site surveying, installation of gas extraction wells and piping networks, condensate management systems, erosion control, project engineering oversight, and in some cases long-term Design-Build-Finance-Own-Operate-Maintain (DBFOOM) agreements where the contractor manages decades-long operations and revenue streams from recovered gas products.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and California. The Dalton-Whitfield Solid Waste Authority (Georgia) issued an ITB for landfill gas collection and control system expansion at Old Dixie Highway Municipal Solid Waste Landfill, with a May 21, 2026 bid deadline, requiring Georgia-licensed General Contractors with minimum five years' experience in landfill gas systems and on-site labor performance of at least 50 percent; substantial completion is due 120 calendar days after Notice to Proceed with liquidated damages of $2,000–$5,000 per day. The Eastern Municipal Water District in Riverside County, California issued an RFP for a long-term Digester Gas Utilization Project at three Regional Water Reclamation Facilities, with a design-build-finance-own-operate-maintain structure, proposal deadline of April 13, 2026, and board approval and contract execution anticipated in October 2026, with substantial completion and facility commissioning by June 2029; proposers must demonstrate minimum five years' direct experience in similar DBFOOM digester gas projects and post estimated bonds of $20 million, $2 million, and $2 million. No set-aside designations or disadvantaged-enterprise preferences are specified in either opportunity.
