The Bakken: Possibly the Largest Construction Project in the United States -- North Dakota Petroleum Council -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

On May 4, 2011, I wrote this: I think I think events in North Dakota are bigger than most people comprehend.

Today, I received the June issue of Talkin' the Bakken in the mail. This might be just the best publication on the Bakken out there. Click here regarding the launch of this glossy.

In this issue the editors quote the North Dakota Petroleum Council:
The Bakken is possibly the largest construction project in the United States right now and likely the second largest in North America, behind the Alberta oil sands. There is no question that the next three to five years will be a busy time across the west as Bakken development continues and infrastructure is expanded.
In fact, it would be interesting if anyone can find a construction project going on right now in the United States requiring a 2,500-bed man-camp to keep it going. And that's just one of many man-camps going up in the Bakken industrial park.

For those looking for work in the North Dakota oil patch, here are the advertisers in Talkin' the Bakken. These are just a few of those working in the largest industrial park project in the United States.
