Gas treatment service including supply of chemicals is an engineering firm engaged in gas treatment in the broadest sense of the word. GtS specializes in the design and realization of gas treatment systems for biogas, landfill gas and digester gas`

UNSPSC 73151708 Gas treatment service is a Commodity code that in state and local practice encompasses well plugging, abandonment, drilling, site restoration, and related remediation work on orphaned and abandoned oil, gas, and water wells across utility, environmental, and parks infrastructure. State and local governments buy under this code primarily through environmental remediation programs, water utility capital projects, and state natural resource agencies managing legacy infrastructure. The issuing bodies span state environmental departments (Michigan EGLE, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board), city water utilities (Albany, Wrens, Pascagoula, Reynolds, Ocala), county parks and utility districts (Escambia County, Sarasota County, Boulder County Parks, Seminole County), and park and recreation authorities (Texas Parks and Wildlife, Oregon Parks and Recreation). Michigan's Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy emerges as the most active repeat buyer in the recent opportunities block, having posted multiple direct solicitations and prequalification RFPs for orphaned well plugging services across Gratiot, Montcalm, and Kent Counties in recent months. The geographic spread of recent activity centers on Michigan (numerous EGLE well-plugging solicitations), Florida (water well rehabilitation in Escambia, Sarasota, Hillsborough Counties), Georgia (water well construction in Albany, Reynolds, Wrens), Mississippi (orphan well plugging under the MSOGB), and scattered opportunities in Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, and other states. The work being solicited includes full-scope orphan well plugging funded under the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Michigan EGLE's Gilbert and New Haven Energy well packages in July 2026, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board's nine-well and ten-well packages in May–October 2026), municipal water well rehabilitation and replacement (City of Albany Well No. 21 rehabilitation, bids due November 16, 2026; City of Reynolds 500-GPM deep well with chemical feed building, bids due August 14, 2026; Wrens Well #107 installation, bids due September 3, 2026), monitoring well installation at closed landfill sites (Escambia County Klondike Landfill under ITQ, deadline September 16, 2026 passed), and stock water well development for agricultural leases (Boulder County Alexander Dawson and Mayhoffer properties, proposals due September 4, 2026). Prequalification vehicles dominate recent Michigan and select national activity, with EGLE's RFP 260000002522 prequalification (August 25, 2026 posting, September 22 deadline, $800,000 awarded to five vendors) and Michigan's rolling quarterly prequalification program establishing vendor pools for subsequent task-order RFQs on individual well packages.

The recent opportunities show strong federal funding influence—Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act support for orphaned well plugging in Michigan and Mississippi, State Revolving Fund financing for water infrastructure in Georgia and Mississippi, and USDA Rural Development backing water utilities in Georgia. Bidders face Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance on federally funded work, Build America Buy America material sourcing mandates, and technical qualification filters requiring minimum field experience (typically five to ten years in well drilling, plugging, or rehabilitation), valid contractor and driller licensure by state, and insurance thresholds of $1–2 million general liability, workers' compensation, and pollution liability. Evaluation on recent RFPs and RFQs weights technical qualifications and key personnel (25–30%) equally or heavily against experience (25–30%) and vendor questions response (25%), with price—when included—often secondary to technical scoring on prequalification and best-value determinations. Michigan EGLE's current direct solicitations (July 2026 postings) show rapid market activity: New Haven Energy well packages across multiple solicitations (3 wells, 14 wells, 9 wells, 12 wells in Gratiot and Montcalm Counties) with July 21, 2026 proposal deadlines all require prequalification eligibility, indicating an established vendor pool competing for follow-on work. Water utility well maintenance and repair services stand as a separate stream, with longer-term master service agreements offering recurring revenue (Hillsborough County's two-year, $688,073 water well maintenance ITB; San Bernardino County's five-year, $2.8 million on-call well and pump services RFQ; City of Austin's rebid on Deep Eddy and Big Stacy pool well maintenance under local business preference).
