Oil and gas pipeline construction in Washington (NAICS 237120)

NAICS 237120 and Washington as a pipeline-construction join

This page intersects one six-digit industry and one state. $68,911,841.67 is the obligation sum where both filters are true. NAICS 237120 is oil and gas pipeline and related structures construction, not a statewide spending total and not a national 237120 rollup. Those parent tables live on Washington federal spending and NAICS 237120.

10 awards against $68.9 million is a concentrated construction cell. 10 is an award-record count. A handful of large vehicles can dominate the dollar sum. The packet does not say how many unique vendors produced the 10 lines. Reading 10 as pipelines, yards, or clinics in Washington would confuse actions with establishments.

Washington industries lists other NAICS codes with WA place of performance. All spending ties indexes other state–industry pairs. Do not sum those indexes into $68,911,841.67. The headline remains $68,911,841.67 on 10 awards for this pair alone.

The overlay exists because two filters are true at once. Quote the industry code and the state together whenever you reuse the headline dollar figure. The packet publishes an obligation sum and an award-action count; it does not publish unique vendors, a median, outlays, or a fiscal year. Parent hubs remain the place to see the statewide mix and the national industry page without the other filter.

Pipeline structures, not a refining or shipping residual

USAspending labels NAICS 237120 as Oil And Gas Pipeline And Related Structures Construction. The packet does not name routes, products, or primes. Power-line and highway codes never enter $68,911,841.67 unless they also appear as 237120, which they do not. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the Washington cell.

Energy-corridor folklore is ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars. Unique contractors are unpublished. Dividing $68,911,841.67 by 10 produces about $6,891,184. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical Washington contract. There is no median, no top-award table, and no fiscal-year breakout on this packet. Do not treat the mean as a posted unit price.

Washington geography on a 237120 cell

Washington place of performance can cover Puget Sound, the Columbia, or a reporting address near a federal installation. The packet has no site split. Inside the WA tag, named cities are not broken out. A named city can sit inside $68,911,841.67 only if its awards carry NAICS 237120 and WA — which this narrative cannot verify.

Place-of-performance geography is not the same as contractor headquarters. A firm based elsewhere can perform in Washington, and a Washington address can appear on work done out of state. This join reports the coded pair, not a corridor map. Washington federal spending remains the statewide parent.

Obligations versus outlays for Washington 237120

USAspending obligations are commitments, not checks that have cleared. $68,911,841.67 can include amounts that will be paid later, cancelled, or modified. The packet does not publish outlays. 10 is not a payment count. Quote NAICS 237120 in Washington as obligations and leave fiscal-year folklore off the citation — years are unpublished here.

What the pipeline–Washington pair does not prove

A high mean on ten awards is not proof of a single prime and not proof that Washington specialized in pipeline construction because of federal demand. Unique contractors are unpublished. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these awards. Keep both sides of the join in any headline: NAICS 237120 and Washington.

How to cite pipeline construction in Washington

Cite USAspending.gov, NAICS 237120 (Oil And Gas Pipeline And Related Structures Construction), Washington (WA), $68,911,841.67, and 10 awards. Note that the figures are obligations. Point readers to Washington federal spending, NAICS 237120, Washington industries, and All spending ties rather than collapsing those pages into this cell. Mean per award stays about $6,891,184 as a ratio only.

A ten-award cell can still carry a mid-eight-figure obligation sum. Readers who reuse this snapshot should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. This narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside Washington. Keep the obligation word on $68,911,841.67 in every footnote.
