Century geophysical draw works

The Lower Mississippi-Gulf (LMG) Water Science Center of the US Geological Survey is planning to procure a new electric skid and miscellaneous geophysical equipment from Century Geophysical LLC in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This procurement is a non-competitive purchase order for equipment transfer to a new geophysical logging truck. The contract will be awarded under NAICS code 333132 for Oil and Gas Field Machinery and Equipment Manufacturing, with a size standard of 1,250 employees. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for the contract. The anticipated contract type is firm fixed-price, and while FAR 5.207 allows all responsible sources to submit bids, this notice is primarily informational with the government intending to award noncompetitively under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designations for this procurement. The contract is specifically targeted for Century Geophysical Corporation, as they own the proprietary sled and are the only source capable of transferring the equipment. The delivery date is set at 90 days after receipt of order, with no option periods included. While a specific contract value is not disclosed, the procurement involves specialized geophysical logging equipment. Interested parties can email responses to rlanderson@usgs.gov, though the notice emphasizes this is not a competitive proposal request. The procurement will utilize Product Service Code 6655 for Geophysical Instruments, signaling the technical specificity of the equipment being acquired.
