The US Geological Survey, under the Department of the Interior, is forecasting a requirement for Inorganic IRMS services to obtain stable isotope data via a Gas Bench Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer. This capability is critical for the Energy Resources Program to accurately characterize carbonate components in geologic samples and improve the interpretation of petroleum systems. By bringing this capability in-house or securing a standardized contract, the agency aims to eliminate reliance on external laboratories and ensure the high analytical quality and methodological consistency required for gold-standard science deliverables. The project is categorized under NAICS code 334516 and is expected to be performed in Denver. Interested parties can coordinate with Sean Jones, who serves as both the point of contact and the Small Business Specialist for this effort. The forecast was posted on October 14, 2026, as part of the agency's strategic effort to enhance its internal technical capabilities.

Full Description

Show more

Stable isotope data generated by a Gas Bench Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS) are essential for accurately characterizing carbonate components in geologic samples. These measurements underpin interpretations of petroleum systems and directly support key priorities within the Energy Resources Program (ERP). Because ERP currently lacks this capability, staff must rely on external laboratories, where analytical quality and methodological consistency vary widely. These limitations hinder ERP’s ability to produce the reliable “gold‑standard” science expected for USGS deliverables.
