Hess Tioga Yard -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

For newbies: Tioga had a population of about 1,200 in 2010. Oil was discovered in North Dakota, about 15 miles south of Tioga in 1951 -- the Clarence Iverson well.

Photos of the Tioga Hess Yard follow. There were taken on Labor Day, 2011. The office was closed in observance of the holiday.

At the time the photos were taken, the following position was being advertised by Hess for this location (I do not know if the advertisement is current and/or still open):
The Tioga Gas Plant, field compression facilities, oil and gas gathering systems, and product export facilities are being expanded as part of the overall Bakken development in North Dakota. The Senior Facilities Project Engineer is responsible for leading a project team in planning, evaluating, designing and installing compressor and dehydration stations required to support the Bakken development.

The position will report to the Bakken Field Facilities Project Manager within the Developments organization. A sound knowledge of onshore oil and gas operation and upstream project execution is required. Potential candidates must have excellent interpersonal and problem-solving skills, be a motivated self-starter, and be willing to relocate to North Dakota.
