Random Photos of Activity in the Bakken -- Petroleum Services and Tools, Inc -- Williston, North Dakota

I doubt if most life-long residents of Williston not engaged in the oil industry have explored the backlots of the industrial park to the west of Million Dollar Way. Growing up in Williston I enjoyed exploring all areas of the town on my bicycle. One of the areas I particularly enjoyed was the maze of buildings in the various industrial parks.

Things have really changed. More buildings, way more trucks, and some very, very nice, new buildings in many cases. This is a particularly nice building in this particular area:



The entrance sits midway between the garages; the middle picture is the north end where FedEx is tucked in. Note, also, the nice Palmer Bit Company building. Apparently there are something like 350 businesses in Williston supporting the oil industry. These are just three of those companies. The bottom picture is from the south.

By the way, FedEx has a huge distribution center farther north of town, on the west side of the far end of Million Dollar Way.
