Highlights of Recent Bakken Investors Conference, Minot -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

There are no shortage of opportunities to find out answers to your questions regarding the Bakken.

The most recent venue was the Bakken Investors Conference held this past week in Minot (regional links break early).
Among those presenters was Art Vivar of Rangeland Energy, who took the podium after Enbridge Pipelines to talk about the new oilfield rail-loading facility Rangeland is building near Epping, known as the COLT Hub.

"Following Enbridge, I'm sorry, we're a very small company, so I hope I won't disappoint many of you with our little story," Vivar said as the audience chuckled. "But we have a place and a role to play as well."

Vivar said Rangeland's focus is to make it easier within the region for the producers' oil to get to market.
Oil will be brought into the COLT facility either via pipe or rail, he said, and leave either into a larger pipeline or via rail transport.
In addition, speakers for the Western Area Water Supply (WAWS) authority also spoke.
